All Saints Worcester Podcast

Rich looks at the depth and call of being kind and compassionate to each other and to the world.

We begin our new teaching series on Love One Another; Paul kicks us off with a brilliant talk on loving one another in community, whether we want to or feel like we should do.

Owen talks through our vision as a church; why we do what we do!

It is often in hindsight that we see the faithfulness of God, James talks on how we can trust God and that he doesn't let us down.

Jonny looks at how, like those first century people, misunderstand who Jesus is and how his kingdom works. Challenging us to realign ourselves to his sacrificial mission in order to bring resurrection to a hurting world.

Owen finishes our series on James looking at the mystery of the "now and not yet" and the hope we have in Christ of the ultimate reconciliation of God to his people, the world and his people to each other ... where is this wide open story of salvation heading?

LJ looks at how it is our relationship with Christ and our time spent with him that develops our character and humility, not anything we can conjure ourselves.

Paul explores how true humility is found in understanding and acknowledging our brokeness in light of the resurrection and life found in Christ.

Owen brings his own inimitable teaching to James' teaching on how we use our words, the way we encourage or pull down each other, how we deal with each other in a way that reflects the person of Jesus.

Laura challenges us to really consider who we give value to, who we see in our community, church and world and how often do we give our best to those that look great on the surface. She offers that the need to understand that we are all in rags on the inside and are therefore poor.

Owen opens up our new series exploring the book of James. He looks at this brother of Jesus and his journey from unbelief to his death as a martyr in Christ. Owen challenges us to ask for faith and joy in the light of life's challenges and to join with Jesus in his sacrificial giving of himself to the world.

Rich looks through the busyness of modern life and the increasing pressures we bring on ourselves through excessive use of social media and technology. He challenges us to find an actual space of quiet and rest within a world of constant input.

Fresh from a three day silent retreat, LJ gives the second in our Silence interviews with Rich.

We have two extra treats this week with interviews from Paul Swann & LJ Tiffany and their experience with the practice of silence.

Rich teaches on the essential and life giving practices of Silence and Solitude within a world of constant technology and Digital input.

Rich continues our series on being apprentices of Jesus. He explores the idea of renewing our minds in community, in partnership with the Holy Spirit, through teaching and spiritual practices.

Rich asks the question "when did we last wake up and not feel tired?" - practicing Sabbath is an essential part of a life that seeks to follow and live fully Human as God intended us to. Rich gives advice and a framework with which to build Sabbath into our lives and to live out from it.

We begin our new teaching series on Practicing the Way of Jesus. Rich explores the the need to live a life that seeks to follow, know and emulate Christ is everyday in order to both be and make new disciples and to find the fullness of our humanity in him.

Owen explores the importance of being forgiven and forgiving; breathing in the atmosphere of forgiveness so it becomes a way of life. In the messy, complicated lives we live there is always space and grace for being forgiven and forgiving.

Kath talks on the role of the Spirit as the enabler for mission and service, the one who gives us identity and our full identity.

The Image of God is an integral part of what and who we are and pushes us to understand that we are not accidental or without meaning; we are made relationally with the Creator

Paul explores our identity as people known by the creator, intimately connected to God and who live a life that flows from knowing that we are known.

Paul helps us look at our freedom in Jesus, knowing who we are and who's we are.

Identity is a huge issue for the 21st Century Church and world. The Bible and the Spirit have a lot to say about the lack of healthy identity in our world today. This is our new series running until Christmas where we'll tackle issues of false identity and people's self worth.

Being All In is not for our own sake but for the sake of Worcester, the UK and a world that does not know Jesus. Rich challenges us to think about how we can give our all for the furthering of the Kingdom of God.
