How often do you look back and give thanks and praise to God. What does your time with God look like- is it more a list of requests or is also filled with praise and gratitude for Him? We dive into Luke 17:11-19 and take a deep dive into the response of a person who interacted with Jesus. Would we respond like the one or the others who were with him at the time.

This Episode delves into the book of Philemon. As we delve into this rich epistle by Paul, we discuss the themes of Forgiveness, Reconciliation, restoration and Equality in Christ.

We are not guaranteed a trouble free journey through life. There are times when we are distraught, we grumble, we complain and even contemplate giving up our faith. The word of God calls us to persevere. In today's episode we spend time reflecting on persevering in our faith and how we are to do that.

If you ever have felt like you did not belong or are striving to be a certain way to meet the expectations either you have placed on yourself or those of others. Let’s take a moment together in this episode and delve into the truth that our value and worth comes from Christ.

With today's episode we conclude our series through Jeremiah. We reflect on some lessons learnt, the nature of God we get to see through this book and reflect on some main lessons we learn through the prophet Jeremiah. 

In this lesson we delve into Jeremiah 45, into the story of Baruch, Jeremiah's scribe. We see Baruch struggling with his own emotions here and we get to see how God responds. We take a look at what it means to live with an eternal perspective and not fixate on the seemingly great things this world can offer. 

This is a reposting of a previous episode. Due to some issues with the previous one, I have reposted this as these podcasts are being used in conjunction with a study on Jeremiah. In Today's episode we dive into Jeremiah 16. The nation of Judah has been heading towards God's judgment and this chapter lays out what they will go through. God speaks of his cause for judgement. But as we read those wo...

If we walk contrary to God, He will walk contrary to us. In Today's episode we delve into Jeremiah 44. We get to learn lessons from the barrier the stubbornness of their sin caused. We see the language of their rebellious hearts and the results of the deceitfulness of their sin. We also see the consequences of mixing idolatry with worship. 

Waiting and Obeying are two crucial aspects of our spiritual walk with God. They are not always easy even though we know we are to wait with trust and obedience . In today's episode we delve into Jeremiah 42 and 43 and we look at where the people of Judah are at. From this passage, we get to look at and question, how fear can spur us to want to hear from God. But do we follow through with intended...

We might face unfair situations and different trials in our lives, just like Jeremiah did, but when we cling to The Lord, He will see us through it. We can miss out on noticing God’s provision when we rush through our days. Reading through Jeremiah – we can often focus on the trials he went through being a prophet for God but as we pause and take notice we do see God’s care and provision. In today...

When trials come our way, how often do we tend to focus on our circumstances than on God and His sovereignty. In today's episode, we look at Jeremiah 36-39, the persecution/trials Jeremiah faced and how he responded to those. The lessons we can glean from it and reflect on how our communication and worship with God fares when we find ourselves in difficult seasons. 

True obedience is a matter of the heart and is empowered by the Spirit. Anything else is only empty form. James 4 says, we must be doers of the word and not hearers only. It is what God wants of us and we can do it in His strength. We won’t do it perfectly but what God wants in us is a genuine desire to follow His precepts evidenced by a growth in following them as we walk in His path. In Today’s...

In todays day and age, We have so much access to information about anything and everything including bible studies/commentaries/explanations or teachings. So, how do we know when what we read or hear is aligned with the truth of God’s word? The people in Jeremiah’s day faced something similar. In today's episode, we look at Jeremiah 28, this passage relates a confrontation between Hananiah the fal...

We will be known by God with what is in our hearts and the fruit of our hands will be the evidence of that. In today's episode we dive into Jeremiah 24 and we learn lessons from the vision that Jeremiah had about the two baskets of figs. We also look at God's promise of hope and restoration to those that hold onto HIM through the good and the bad times.

In today's episode we dive into Jeremiah 20. Jeremiah expresses his despondency and hopelessness to God. There are times in our lives when heavy emotions is all we have got. Worry is brimming within us and before we realise it we have spent all our time stressing out rather than talking to God about it. Lets glean from this time in Jeremiah's life and learn from it. 

When we are discouraged or frustrated we can often lean towards trying to make sense of it ourselves before turning to God. Following Jesus is not a call for perfection but having an honest relationship with Him which includes taking that which lies heavy on our hearts and asking him to change our perspective. In todays episode we continue through our study of Jeremiah, we look at Jeremiah 15, we...
