Episodes

Destructive Fears, Part 1 25.04.2023

There is nothing more debilitating to faith than the power of fear. Find out why it’s a normal part of the Christian life.

Disappointed Hopes, Part 2 24.04.2023

God has given us a deeply unpopular message that people will not embrace. Have you ever felt that way about the gospel? Find out who else felt this way.

Disappointed Hopes, Part 1 23.04.2023

Doubts that arise from disappointed hopes and shattered dreams cannot be resolved by reading a book, taking a class, or making a new commitment.

Diminished Growth, Part 2 20.04.2023

Faith is like a muscle, and if you do not use it, it will atrophy. If a week goes by without exercising faith, you will notice the difference. Find out how to rebuild what has been lost.

Diminished Growth, Part 1 19.04.2023

You have faith and you are grateful for it. You polish it up every Sunday. But you also have what you call “real life,” and you don’t use your faith there. Find out what will happen if you continue like this.

Divided Commitment, Part 2 18.04.2023

You’re finding it difficult to serve the Lord. But have you ever considered the alternatives?

Divided Commitment, Part 1 17.04.2023

If you don’t cultivate your capacity for commitment in the small things, you won’t have the capacity for commitment in the big things.

Deficient Foundations, Part 2 16.04.2023

“Doubting” Thomas is only remembered for one thing: doubting the resurrection of Christ. Does the Bible present him as a weakling or a model of Christian faith?

Are you experiencing very little joy and freedom in the Christian life? Does your faith feel unstable? Find out why that may be.

Distorted Pictures, Part 2 12.04.2023

Biblical meditation is not about emptying your mind; it’s about filling it. Any practice that begins with emptying your mind is highly suspect.

Distorted Pictures, Part 1 11.04.2023

If you find God to be dull, boring, or tedious, then you can be certain that you have a distorted picture of God. You do not know the God of the Bible.

Defective Memory, Part 2 10.04.2023

This is counter-intuitive, but it may be more dangerous to your spiritual health on the day you land a new job, than on the day you were fired from the old one.

Defective Memory, Part 1 09.04.2023

Doubt is not the absence of faith. It is the questioning of faith. You can only doubt what you already believe.

The Day God Turned His Face Away, Part 2 30.03.2023

Breakfast with the Devil, Supper with the Saviour, Part 2 28.03.2023

A person pursues a life of crime, and their heart is full of anger towards God… then they die and go to heaven. Can they really have any confidence at all that they’ll receive a warm reception there? Pastor Colin talks about the surprising answer for one man.

Breakfast with the Devil, Supper with the Saviour, Part 1 27.03.2023

Praying for the Person Who Causes You Pain, Part 2 26.03.2023

Praying for the Person Who Causes You Pain, Part 1 23.03.2023
