In the second of our talks on Seasons Change, Rebekah talks about the lessons she's experienced from becoming a parent for the first time, seeing life through her child's eyes and bringing him in community.

Seasons Change, Part Two: It takes a village

Part three of our Seasons Change series, and Jill talks about the rhythms and cycles of life, encouraging us to recognise the divine in them all.

Seasons Change, Part Three: All life is spiritual

Nathan brings our Seasons Change series to a close, encouraging us to reflect on our personal spiritual journeys. There is a contemplative exercise that follows, which you may want to use to explore things further. Bible text: Hebrews 11

Seasons Change, Part Four: Your spiritual journey

As a companion to the last part of our Seasons Change series, Nathan has created this short Contemplative Exercise to help you think about what stage you are at in your spiritual journey.

This was inspired by "Listening to your life" by Julia Moraunt, 2016.

Seasons Change, Part 4b: A Contemplative Exercise

Nathan launches our new series 'Why did Jesus say that?' We look at the passages where Jesus is reported to have said some rather challenging things. What did Jesus really say and mean?

We start looking at Matthew 25:31-46, this passage seems to talk about a final judgement and the separation of people like 'sheep and goats', doesn't it?

Why did Jesus say that? Part One: Sheep and Goats

Rebekah continues our series 'Why did Jesus say that?' by exploring an incident record in the gospel of Mark. It involves Jesus breaking Jewish religious laws and crossing boundaries to go to an "unclean place", to meet an "unclean man", engaging with "unclean spirits" and "unclean animals" - but why?!

Why did Jesus say that? Part Two: Demon Pigs!

Continuing our series "Why did Jesus say that?" Steve Chalke looks at what Jesus said about divorce and marriage, it seems simple but he explores the context and the religious debate that was happening at the time. The implications of what Jesus said includes us all.
Bible text: Matthew 5:31-32, 19:3-9

Why did Jesus say that? Part Three: About divorce & marriage

Jill Rowe continues our series 'Why did Jesus say that?' looking at Jesus' statement "I did not come to bring peace but a sword." It seems like a difficult message on Remembrance Sunday!

Why did Jesus say that? Part Four: Not peace, a sword

This podcast contains the weekly talks from Oasis Church Waterloo, from our ministers Nathan Jones and Rebekah Gibson, and the rest of the team.
