Sermons

We’ve prepared some pre-recorded sermons available for use in our churches.

They might be used to give your regular preachers a break, or because the content fits particularly well with what a local church is planning. Feel free to use as many of these as you need.

There has been such a great response to the sermon series over the last five summers, with some churches using them well into the year. This year the gift comes from both the Baptist Union and Carey Baptist College with a series of 9 video sermons focusing on discipleship (video files were released to churches on 14 November 2025). You can use one, use them all, or grab them when you most need a break – post-Christmas, the New Year, or into 2026.

All of the sermons are around 19-33 minutes in length, including discussion questions in a PDF making them useful in a variety of settings.

We won’t make these videos easily/publicly available until after 1 July 2026 to increase the likelihood that your people haven’t already watched them – this is why you need a password to access them – see below.

Sermons can be downloaded, or streamed

The videos are provided on Carey’s Vimeo channel – you can stream them or download the video file for best results: Click here for sermons. The password to access the sermons was provided in the November 2025 and December 2025 Support Crew emails from the Baptist National Support Centre to pastors, chairs of Elders/boards, and church administrators. You can also contact the Support Centre for this password: [email protected] or Ph +64 9 526 0333

All of the sermons are around 17-25 minutes in length. Some include discussion questions making them useful in a variety of settings.
