Moses is on the mountain. The people grow restless. Aaron melts under the pressure of the crowd and fashions a golden calf from the gold God himself had provided. And when Moses returns, one man stands between the sins of his people and the righteous anger of God — arms outstretched, pleading for mercy, willing to be blotted out if the people cannot be forgiven. In this sermon from Exodus 32, Rev Andrew Irwin opens the Golden Calf narrative, shows us the contrast between Aaron's failure and Moses' faithfulness, and invites us to see in Moses the clearest shadow yet of the one who would intercede for us at Calvary. Preached at St Paul's & St Barnabas, Belfast — Sunday 13 September 2026.
Before God gives a single commandment at Sinai, he tells Israel who brought them there: I carried you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself. Grace before law. Identity before instruction. In this sermon from Exodus 19–20, Rev Andrew Irwin opens the Ten Commandments not as a moral obstacle course but as a covenant gift — the shape of freedom for a people already rescued. Worship comes first, because it is the best thing for us. Then right relating flows from it. And the whole thing makes no sense without the God who gives it, or the Saviour who fulfils it.

They had seen it all — the plagues, the sea, the freedom. And a month into the wilderness they wanted to go back. In this sermon from Exodus 16, Rev Andrew Irwin traces the story of the manna: bread from heaven, grace before rebuke, covenant sufficiency for the whole community, the Sabbath as defiance against Egypt's relentless logic, and the deepest lesson of all — that the God who rescued his people will sustain them one day at a time, until he brings them all the way home. And the manna, for all its wonder, was always a sign pointing to the better thing still to come: the Bread of Life. Preached at St Paul's & St Barnabas, Belfast — Sunday 31 August 2026. www.spbbelfast.church
A new Pharaoh who does not know Joseph. A people once welcomed, now enslaved. And two midwives who fear God more than they fear the most powerful ruler in the known world. In this sermon from Exodus 1:1–22, Rev Andrew Irwin opens the great Exodus narrative and explores what it looks like to be the people of God when the world is changing around you — how the blessing of God continues in spite of opposition, why the unnamed Pharaoh is insignificant compared to the named midwives, and how Shiprah and Puah point forward as a shadow of the even greater rescue to come in Christ. Preached at St Paul's & St Barnabas, Belfast — Sunday 23 August 2026. www.spbbelfast.church
Three verses. A soul humbled, stilled, and hoping. In this sermon from Psalm 131, Rev Andrew Irwin takes us through one of the shortest and most quietly powerful psalms in Scripture — exploring how confidence in God produces humility rather than pride, how the gospel gives us a contentment the world cannot manufacture, and why David's closing command still rings out to every generation: put your hope in the Lord, both now and forevermore. Preached at St Paul's & St Barnabas, Belfast — Sunday 16 August 2026. www.spbbelfast.church
Let love be genuine. It sounds straightforward — until you look closely at what Paul actually means. In this sermon from Romans 12:9–16, Rev Andrew Irwin unpacks what sets the church apart from any other gathering: a love without masks, without performance, without keeping score — devoted inward to one another, fervently dependent upward on God, and open outward to the city around it. The world cannot produce this kind of community. But the Spirit can, and does, in people who have been grasped by the grace of Christ. Preached at St Paul's & St Barnabas, Belfast — Sunday 26 July 2026. www.spbbelfast.church
The Spirit who emptied the tomb lives in you. So you are not a slave to fear — you are a child of God, a co-heir with Christ, groaning with all creation toward a glory that will make all of this worth it. In this sermon from Romans 8:12–25, Rev Andrew Irwin asks what we live by — not merely what we live for — and answers with Paul: not by fear, not by sight, not by survival, but by the Spirit of sonship who opens the prison of self and sends us out to make known a hope the world cannot find on its own. Preached at St Paul's & St Barnabas, Belfast — Sunday 19 July 2026. www.spbbelfast.church
The same seed. The same sower. Four very different soils. In this sermon from Matthew 13:1–23, Rev Andrew Irwin opens the Parable of the Sower and asks what state our hearts are in when the seed falls. Are they hard, shallow, choked with competing loves — or receptive, understanding, and bearing fruit? And for those who know where they stand in Christ: will we keep scattering, keep praying, and keep trusting the Lord of the harvest — because the harvest, says Jesus, is certain.
