Andy B Podcasts and Stuff

Send us Fan Mail Go Deeper with Andy B as he explains what staying on target means. He talks about how we should be witnessing to those in our orbit. We don’t have to travel to a foreign country to preach the Gospel. We ought to show God’s love to whomever He places within our reach, like our colleagues at work. He also touches on the topic of pleasing others. We can’t possibly please everyone. In...

Send us Fan Mail Andy loves the kitchen! And he was inspired, a while ago, about how saucepans can teach us much about pressure in our lives, and letting that pressure go with God. Today, he has a saucepan and a colander…both are great at straining, but with each the BerryBunch either lose rice – if they’re a bit too energetic pouring the wet rice in, or slipping the saucepan lid – and losing all...

Send us Fan Mail Psalm 139 is a fairly well known piece of scripture, but it is verse 2 that really strikes Andy B as he considers Calendars, Organisation and Peace. Psalm 139 v 2 tells us that God knows when we sit down and when we get up. So God definitely has a handle on what we can accomplish in any single day – for Him. There will be seasons when we have little choice – perhaps younger childr...

Send us Fan Mail Psalm 17 verse 8, says this “Protect me as the pupil of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings (CSB) We love the idea of being under the protection of our Heavenly Father – as we should! But after some issues with their car, due to an oak tree in their garden (and the ‘stuff’ it deposited on their car), Andy realised the small, summer, car cover - which only covered the win...

Send us Fan Mail Go Deeper with Andy B as he explains how we can avoid distractions. He looks at both of this week’s Scriptures… Proverbs 4:25-27: “Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you. Ponder the path of your feet; then all your ways will be sure. Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your foot away from evil.” …and Hebrews 12:1-2: “Therefore, since...

Send us Fan Mail I’ve spent all morning working on my laptop. I plugged it in to make sure it wouldn’t go flat only to find I never actually inserted the mains plugs at the other end… Is this what we’re like with our bibles and relationship with God - we have our bibles open, but we’re not reading them; we pray, but don’t listen – or simply use words that aren’t our own hoping they’ll be good enou...

Send us Fan Mail Andy B was inspired by a post, written by a friend, that reminded us all that sometimes we can be surprised when God  does  answer our prayers. Also, while filming Little Blessings Online, Andy was thinking about how Dave the Dog had thought of that talking bush, that Moses encountered. In our lives, are we hearing the bush, or the voice of God? Let’s not miss what God is doing or...

Send us Fan Mail Some days we can soar like eagles. Other days, it feels like the eagle never found a thermal. But feelings come and go. And good days and bad days come and go to. But no matter what sort of a day we’re having, there is ALWAYS something to be thankful for.

Send us Fan Mail Andy B shared a post earlier today about working and walking in God’ strength, titled Busy days and God’s rhythm. That post started with these words… “Busy day ahead? Make sure you stop before you start, so you’ll be able to finish!” …before Andy went to look at how we can expound those words to make for more God like appear! And how often do we charge into the day, because it is...

Send us Fan Mail Today, Andy B drove jo – his wife – to work. Something he doesn’t normally do! It meant he could return a faulty product easily, in the family car – which was great. But it really meant he could take a load off Jo – as a former trucker, 90 minutes of driving twice in a day is not even close to taxing, but for some it might be. So where is God nudging you to help somebody today? It...

Send us Fan Mail Using James 2 v 14-17, Matthew 23 v 27-28 and 1 Samuel 16 v 10, Andy B goes deeper and focuses on being real, in light of the fact that God sees the heart. We often think of what the outside looks like, and appearance is much easier to spot. But James, as ever, gets straight to the point, and makes us question whether or not we’re actually saved – if we aren’t outputting the fruit...

Send us Fan Mail Andy B found a great bible reading plan on YouVersion, that led him to 1 Samuel 16, and the account of David killing Goliath. As amazing as that piece of scripture is, at 58 verses in length, David’s actions with those stones, only takes up 1 little verse. As amazing as that, Andy B saw an ever greater act of heroism. So what Goliath are you facing right now? Remember that God is...

Send us Fan Mail Samuel is an prophet, with an amazing prophet to speak for God to people. With that comes the other side of a great relationship with God - actually having to speak what God is telling Samuel to say. Enter Jesse and his sons! Samuel is to choose the next king. But, having checked in with God, none of those sons are acceptable to God to become King. Was Samuel wrong? Or is there a...

Send us Fan Mail The book of James helps Andy B get real about some struggles he's been having with being double minded. It's never easy admitting you've been getting something wrong. But there is a beauty of the conviction that comes from getting honest with God, and allowing the Holy Spirit to minister to us as God's hand crafted people. Andy B Support the show Keep in Touch...

Send us Fan Mail GoDeeper with Andy B, as he looks at how to stay pure. He talks about the importance of not looking at things that are unhealthy, as it won’t lead us closer to Jesus. And he explains the link between Philippians 4:8 and Matthew 18:9. Andy B Support the show Keep in Touch with the BerryBunch www.berrybunch.org Support Us Online www.berrybunch.org/supportus

Send us Fan Mail If you’re not a fan of giant spiders, read on! This is kind of, all about, the very opposite of giant spiders, as Andy B looks at how projected images distort reality! So where in our lives, are we fearing something terrifying and monstrous – when it is really just a projected image making something look bigger than it really is? Just a thought… Andy B Support the show Keep in Tou...

He gives some examples of people receiving correction and touches on why it is so important to remain humble.

Send us Fan Mail GoDeeper with Andy B, as he looks at self-discipline, both in physical training and spiritual training. Whatever we're working towards, we need both focus and determination - whether that's bird watching, running or going through a physical selection test for the Army or Police Service.

Send us Fan Mail GoDeeper with Andy B, as he looks at the fact that we have good days and bad days, but God promises joy in any circumstances.

Send us Fan Mail Everything in life can teach us something or cause us to question. And when our tape measures got pulled beyond the STOP sign at the end, it broke. That STOP sign tells you where the end of the tape measure sits…if you don’t pull it past those warning, red, letters, all is good! And in life, there are often STOP signs. We obey them or ignore them at our peril. So where is God aski...

Send us Fan Mail They decided to push on a bit faster and get past him – for the first time, having always been just a bit slower than him! Just as they were starting to get close, Andy B’s bike had a puncture. So they stopped! Their goal disappeared, literally, into the distance. A couple of options were available – push the bikes home, or repair the puncture and carry on. Thankfully, Andy B alwa...

Send us Fan Mail Andy B's alarm clock stopped working. So he bought a new one. But before binning the old one, it struck him that there are often things in our lives which don't work very well.  Some we can work around. But some need sorting a little more directly! Just a thought… Andy B Support the show Keep in Touch with the BerryBunch www.berrybunch.org Support Us Online www.berrybunc...

Send us Fan Mail When we're recording Jo's Art Videos we mostly do this from directly above, so what she is doing can be most easily seen and followed along with. Andy loves problem solving, so used some leftover cardboard to make a special, unique, bespoke cradle to hold a mobile phone on a mic. stand...........which got him thinking about how God never gives up on us and how we need to...

Send us Fan Mail We got married nearly 25 years ago and, like most newly weds, we had no furniture to fill the house we lived in. We were given a settee, which was well beyond its best, but still functioned. We bought some fabric to cover it, and it's still going strong..........which got Andy B thinking about how useful we are to God, no matter what season we are in of life. Just a thought…...

Send us Fan Mail We recently started using a replacement microwave after our old faithful one, of more than a decade, showed its age quite a bit. Anyway, we get through quite a bit of rice, and have used a microwave rice maker for the past two decades. And, now, it doesn't fit! The microwave is too small for it - so we had to get creative! Which got Andy B thinking about the things in our lif...
