What does “Rhythms of the Heart” mean?

The Christian life is not simply about believing the right things — it is about learning to live in rhythms that keep our hearts close to God.

Throughout Scripture, especially in the Book of Psalms, we see believers expressing their hearts to God through prayer, praise, confession, and trust. These patterns shape how we grow in relationship with Him.

Disciplines we will explore

Rhythms that help us follow Christ.

01

Prayer

02

Reading Scripture

Hearing and responding to God’s Word.

03

Fellowship

Encouraging one another as believers.

04

Trusting God

Resting in His promises even in difficult seasons.

Speaker

Joe Cho

Joe Cho is the lead pastor of Redeemer City Church in Chatswood.

Joe will be speaking from the Book of Psalms, helping youth understand how spiritual disciplines such as prayer, reading Scripture, and trusting in God shape the Christian life.

His message will focus on how believers can find rest, hope, and guidance in God, knowing that He is unchanging and faithful through Jesus Christ.
