Connexus Church Audio Podcast

What does the medical profession say about the connection between mental health and spirituality? And how do we handle the rising mental health crisis in the lives of the kids we love? This Sunday, we'll hear from Dr. Rob Meeder, a pediatrician with a focus on mental health. He'll look at how we can come alongside our kids to support them in this area, and how we can connect our spiritual life to...

Is anxiety owning your life? What if it didn't have to be that way? Author Jason Cusick shows you how you can triumph over anxiety in your day-to-day life in this bonus interview with Jeff Brodie

We all know someone who is dealing with anxiety—or perhaps you yourself are dealing with it. As we survey the world around us, there are many tools and resources to help, but what about the spiritual side of anxiety? In this message, we'll look at the practice of peace laid out by the apostle Paul.

Burnout seems to be an epidemic these days. Almost everyone seems overwhelmed, overcommitted and overworked. It's not just killing us, it's nowhere close to the way God wants us to live. We'll look at why burnout is running so rampant, and how to ensure you get out of it and stay out of it. 

What's the conversation you have in your head with yourself about yourself? Whether it's on the golf course, at work, at home, or in the car, you can at times find yourself overwhelmed by this internal conversation—and in particular, your inner critic. In this message, we'll be looking at why your internal conversation is so important, where your inner critic comes from, and what to do about it.

In this podcast Jeff Brodie will dispel myths about mental health and share some of his own personal story.  He'll also share a framework for how we can handle whatever comes our way by paying attention to our soul.

We all want to get the future right, and we all want to arrive safely at our intended destination. Follow these rules and you will get there on time and on purpose.

What if you could recapture the magic of the Christmas season? Could you rediscover a hope and joy that seem long lost? Could Christmas bring you back to something more meaningful? 

In this special Christmas message with Mark Clark, we explore how the birth of Jesus Christ teaches us about the true source of joy and how we can strive to live a life full of joy as believers. We will look at the examples of Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds in the Christmas story and how their actions and attitudes demonstrate a joy that transcends circumstances. We will also discuss the role of...

What is the secret magic behind the posture of humility? How can you beat pride in your life, and why does God give glory to the humble? In this message, Mark Clark shares how the magic of humility comes to life in the Christmas story.

In this series called The Magic of Christmas , we'll be talking about the real magic that fills the world and how Jesus entered history to bring us his presence, his love, his grace, his peace, his joy, and his hope. It's a supernatural story that we want to reach into and grab hold of.

You know that you need to make change in your life, but you just can't seem to make any progress. You wish you were more loving, more kind, had more joy, were more patient, but it feels like one step forward, two steps backward. How do you leave behind the things that hinder you and move into the things that are best for you? How do you change? What if the Holy Spirit could help? You might be surp...

Why can the Holy Spirit be a divisive topic? What Spiritual Gift do YOU have? What does it mean to be filled with the Spirit? Join in for this special Q&A as Sydney Jackson interviews Lead Pastor Jeff Brodie

What a morning to celebrate how Jesus has changed people's lives and their choice to follow Him. It's amazing to see what God is doing. Baptism is also a time for all of us to reflect on the death and resurrection of Jesus, and celebrate the freedom He brings us.

In the Christian faith, the Spirit is often best known for acting in a supernatural way. If you've been exposed to that, it may have seemed weird, or manipulative, or uncomfortable. When you look at Jesus and the early church you see something different. Something powerful, something impossible made possible, but also something that was a gift for a moment. We'll be looking at the experiential gif...

You've heard the phrase Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, but what is the Holy Spirit? When you investigate the Holy Spirit in the early church you realize so much more of who God is. How can you experience the Holy Spirit yourself?

A man had been dealing with his illness for 38 years, sitting by a pool waiting for something miraculous to happen, when Jesus singled him out and asked him the question, "Do you want to be healed?" What initially seems like a ridiculous question provokes a deeper look into areas of brokenness in our lives that we may not even recognize are there.

Have you ever struggled to know how to forgive yourself? How to manage that nagging guilt? About your job, your family or your finances? What if you could be forever released from that? 

In a time where generosity was a measured duty, the early Church followed Jesus' example of radical, overflowing generosity.  

Under the pressure of power in a cut throat culture, the early church leaders shared their hope through their non-anxious presence. Where you find your identity is where you look for peace.

In a time when truth was used as a weapon, and grace was seen as weak, the early church constantly challenged themselves to hold grace and truth at the same time, especially for those who were new to faith.

In a time when culture was polarized and turned inward, Jesus and the early church ran toward messes, reached out to the untouchable, and made space for those who wanted to follow Jesus.

Just because someone claims to be our enemy doesn't mean we must return the favour. When it comes to Jesus & retaliation, how do you decide what is appropriate and good when you feel wronged?

Our reactions reflect our confidence or our lack of confidence in God.  

What is the hidden key to your emotional health? How do you manage your feelings when you start to feel out of control? Our actions rarely tell the whole story, but our reactions most certainly do. And Jesus instructs us to leverage them for good, and doing so is the key to emotional health. Andy Stanley talks you through managing your feelings and the power of complete emotional health!
