Tune in as Pastor Rod Bayley discusses more on how our generosity can exalt God. We consider how to safe guard against the love of money, how we can go about creating a culture of accountability regarding generosity, and how we can remind ourselves of the true source of our material possessions. We also consider what it looks like to be generous at different stages and life, why a misplaced sense of security is a barrier to giving, and whether or not our giving needs to be costly in order for it to be a true act of generosity.

Tune in as we explore more about the biblical practice of fasting. We’ll consider what the Bible has to say about food more broadly, as well as how we can engage in this practice while maintaining a healthy attitude towards food. We’ll consider whether or not it is a sin to neglect fasting and why this discipline has been included in our series on worship.

Join us as Ken Davies unpacks more on the topic of prayer, based on his sermon from Matthew 6:5-15 (The Lord’s Prayer). How do I know if my prayers are being heard by God? Do my prayers actually impact change? What if I’m praying for godly things but still seeing no results? Given the emphasis on forgiveness in Jesus’ prayer the conversation then shifts to the necessity for forgiven people to be forgiving people. The difference between forgiving something and endorsing something is discussed, as well as whether or not Christians are called to ‘forgive and forget’.

In this episode Pastor Mark Roberts shares more about Sunday’s sermon on singing. Discussion includes the necessity of biblically sound lyrics and how our church goes about managing song choices for corporate worship. We are also encouraged to avoid the pursuit of emotion for emotion’s sake, but to sing passionately because we are singing about the Lord. The reality of the significant gap between God’s worth and our feeble voices is considered, as well as some of the difficulties we may experience at church as we try to sing together in a way that is both God glorifying and helpful to others.

Tune in as Pastor Rod Bayley speaks about the significant issue of idolatry. Why is God so concerned with idolatry? Can all sin be considered a form of idolatry? How can I tell the difference between a good desire and an idol? What if my idol is hard to give up? We’ll also consider how an understanding of our own idols and the idols of non-believers can help us to be more effective in sharing the good news of Jesus.
