Who We Are
We’re a bible-loving, Spirit-dependent, Gospel-shaped people, filling our city with the message, life and fame of Jesus.
Bosch is Common Ground’s original congregation. It’s a vibrant, active and wonderfully diverse community which consists of people of all ages and life-stages from the surrounding suburbs. Whether you’re young, old, somewhere in the middle, single, single again or married; you'll feel right at home.
Sundays are a high moment where we meet together to celebrate Jesus! And if you're investigating faith, our Sunday gathering are a safe place to explore the claims of Jesus, as well as the community he is building. No matter where you are in your faith journey you are welcome to join us, as we honestly seek to answer the big questions in life.
During the week we meet in life groups, people in authentic relationships orientated around growing in maturity and relationship with Jesus and each other. Sundays can be daunting for some to meet people and have deeper conversations, so mid-week life groups allow for everyone to be part of asking deeper questions and getting to know people in a low-pressure, fun and friend-filled way.
We also have a number of ministries aimed at discipling Christ-followers into maturity through the various seasons, spheres and stages of life.
If Jesus is who he says he is, that changes everything… Join us as we unpack this reality!

Biblical Justice
As Christ-followers we are called to biblical justice.
We believe this is a fundamental part of our growing in Christlikeness and as a community. As an expression of this, we partner with several local organisations to build and strengthen communities around us.

Pastoral Care Ministries
These are small groups that dig deep into difficult and seldom discussed areas of life. There are various support groups and courses run during the year both in-person and online.
Pastoral Care Ministries
The followers of Jesus are Citizens of the Kingdom, whilst being citizens on the earth. We see in our city and nation how sins of racism and prejudice pervade our society, bringing pain and suffering and raising important issues that need to be addressed. None of us are unaffected by this. We recognise that there are many different voices, perspectives and narratives around this and, as a church, we believe that the Bible should be the loudest voice for followers of Jesus. It calls us to reflect, repent and move into action. The gospel shines its bright light onto this topic.
Whether new to faith, or seasoned, we are all to be growing in Christlikeness in this area of life. We all have areas in our lives that need to be more fully submitted to the sanctifying work of Christ. We ask him to keep revealing areas of our personal lives and church practices that are not in submission to him that we may be changed and better glorify him in our lives. He is our model, our saviour, our healer and the One we want to honour in the way we relate, serve and love one another.
