Hope Church Munich Podcast

Join us for our entire Christmas Eve service as we celebrate the true significance of this peaceful Christmas Eve. The beautiful and encouraging Christmas verse of Isaiah 9:6 is also unpacked during the short message “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Pe...

Have you already opened the true gift of Christmas? God’s wonderful gift of life, hope, joy and goodwill to all mankind came through the Father’s love for us in the form of His Son, Jesus, born as a baby to a virgin 2000 years ago. This baby, fully God and fully man, would go on to pay the price for all the sin of the entire world … past, present and future so that whoever believes in Him will hav...

In this message we look into the true meaning behind Jesus’ exhortation in Acts 20:35b ’It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” We see from Scripture that God is a benevolent, loving God who continually gives. When His nature lives inside of us, we too want to give and joy is released in us. As Christians we are called to ‘be blessed and be a blessing’ … “freely we have received, freely we s...

Jesus only did what he saw His Father doing, and everything He did was based out of His close relationship with His Father in heaven.

Apostolic input to the local and wider church from Ian Rossol. --- Jesus hat nur das getan, was er seinen Vater tun...

The very famous statements of Jesus detailed in Matthew 5:14-16 are unpacked. What did Jesus mean when he said to the disciples that they were the “Light of the World … a city on a hill that could not be hidden?” And what do these statements mean for us today? As Christians, we are called to shine His light in us and through us to those round about us, and into this dark world. --- Die sehr bekann...

In this personal message, highlighting the importance of people committing to a local church body, we had the joy of having 15 people committing to being part of our church family. In this family, we are there for one another. God loves His Church and has brought His people together as living stones, being built into His spiritual house, the Church. --- In dieser persönlichen Botschaft wird die Be...

In this message, the very famous statement of Jesus detailed in Matthew 5:13 is unpacked. What did Jesus mean when he said to the disciples that they were the “salt of the earth?” Just like salt, as Christians we are called to bring seasoning and change for the better upon this earth … to preserve society from rotting, to give it taste and to point people to God’s love and His covenant. --- In die...

A detailed look at one of the kingdom parables of Jesus. The kingdom’s work starts small and humbly … but it transforms everything it touches, just like leaven. When the Holy Spirit lives in us, we should never underestimate the change that God can bring in us and through us, like leaven, affecting us and affecting others round about us. --- Ein detaillierter Blick auf eines der Gleichnisse Jesu ü...

The world is crying out for authenticity. In Part 5 of our series „Back to Basics” we look at the often-misunderstood passage of the Syrophoenician Woman’s encounter with Jesus in Matthew chapter 15 and the need for us to be authentic with God, … authentic with one another, … and authentic with people who do not yet know Him. --- Die Welt sehnt sich nach Authentizität. In Teil 5 unserer Serie "Zur...

Jesus often ate with tax collectors and sinners (much to the disgust of the Pharisees and religious leaders). In Part 4 of our series “Back to Basics” we are reminded that we need to do what Jesus did, by being with and eating with those who did not yet know Him. Remember, it is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. --- Jesus hat oft mit Zöllnern und Sündern gegessen (sehr zum Missfalle...

Part 3 in our series „Back to Basics” compounds the importance and simplicity of Galatians 6:9 in that we should not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will receive a harvest if we do not give up. --- In Teil 3 unserer Reihe "Zurück zu den Grundlagen" geht es um die Bedeutung und Einfachheit von Galater 6:9, in dem es heißt, dass wir nicht müde werden sollen, Gutes zu tun, denn...

A continuation of our series in ‘getting prepared’. This message explores the importance of ‘wells’ in the Bible and how we sense God is calling us to re-dig wells of blessings in our lives … Wells, that the enemy has maybe filled in to try to stop us being a blessing, AND for us to fill in negative wells in our lives which the enemy has dug to try to hold us back. --- Eine Fortsetzung unserer Rei...

A continuation of our preaching series on prayer.
