A five week sermon series on relationships

Love Connects | Better Together 2.0 | (02.06.24)

We discuss bitcoin, climate change, recycling, vaccines, covid, relationships, lord of the rings, and how the Truth is relational, explorational, and adventurous.

I am trying to rip open the inconsolable secret in each one of you… the secret we cannot hide and cannot tell, though we desire to do both.
- C.S. Lewis

Ep 196: The scent of a flower we have not found

Reviewing soooo many joints (Striling/Toliver/Tove/Normani... I guess just 4:), I exchange rudeness with an AT&T employee, and Rick Ross is a thief!

Music and Shiiii_6/14/24 - "THEY CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD!"

Life For The Longing | John 4 | Life In Full | Reggie Lamityi | (21.07.24) Audio

They say "you are what you read!" We read all sorts of things in life but rarely do we think all that much about reading as we struggle to keep up with the many words and authors that cross our path.

In this special episode, Andy and Aaron met up in Oxford to talk about the books they've been reading of late, and how these books relate to life, the universe, and everything. They discuss numerous things, from reading Tolkien's letters whilst walking through Magdalen College, to books by atheist comedians, to Wind in the Willows!

Somehow they still manage to talk about numerous themes relating to church, politics, secularism, beauty, culture, apologetics, and the kingdom of God. They even manage to get interrupted mid-episode by the cast of an outdoor Shakespeare play ... enjoy!

Episode 82 - What Are We Reading?

Jesus, Who I AM! | John 8: 48-59 | Life In Full | Charles Beaven | (04.08.24)

Matt sat in his car as tears formed in his eyes. It was probably grief, but where did it come from? Was it a thought, a memory, or something harder to explain?

Ep 204: Dreams are like a Rothko

9/18/24 12:01 PM

The Doctor is In -091824- On Living in an Atomic Age

We discuss Fyodor Dostoevsky’s advice about lying, Matt’s desire to be a good father, sourdough bread, and turtles all the way down.

“Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to such a pass that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love, and in order to occupy and distract himself without love he gives way to passions and coarse pleasures, and sinks to bestiality in his vices, all from continual lying to other men and to himself. The man who lies to himself can be more easily offended than any one. You know it is sometimes very pleasant to take offense, isn't it? A man may know that nobody has insulted him, but that he has invented the insult for himself, has lied and exagerated to make it picturesque, has caught at a word and made a mountain out of a molehill he knows that himself, yet he will be the first to take offense, and will revel in his resentment till he feels great pleasure in
it, and so pass to genuine vindictiveness.”

- Fyodor Dostoevsky

Ep 219: Above all, don't lie to yourself

12/8/24. Between Two Worlds -- The Longing of Peace (Pr. Harry)

Theodicy is a subject concerned with the question: how can God be just when evil is present in the world? Rather than justifying evil (as evil can never be justified), Theodicy actually justifies God. Let’s face it, when bad things happen and we ask the question: “Why did He allow this to happen?” God is the one under the microscope. Today’s study will open God’s word and look into these difficult issues.

Hosted by: Pr Uriah St Juste
Guests: Kaysie Vokurka & Junior Sulusi

The Problem of Evil - 250107

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the transformative power of sincere faith and how it can spark spiritual fires in our lives and the lives of others. Through the lens of 2 Timothy 1:1-7, we explore how retaining sincere faith, reading what God is already doing, remembering that little things are big things, and rekindling the gifts of God can make us effective links in God's redemptive chain. The story of C.S. Lewis's conversion illustrates how ordinary conversations and friendships can lead to extraordinary spiritual awakenings. We're challenged to live as 'anti-hypocrites,' embodying our faith in every aspect of our lives, and to recognize that God is already at work in the world around us. This message encourages us to see the profound impact of small, faithful actions and to embrace our role as 'fire starters' in God's kingdom, igniting spiritual transformation in our communities.

Link in the Chain | It's A Team Sport - 2 Timothy 1:1-7 - Clint Leavitt

Audiobook Sample - The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe

Nesse episódio tivemos como base a obra "Cristianismo Puro e Simples" de C.S. Lewis.
Jesus: verdadeiro Deus!
As palavras e ações de Jesus, como o perdão de pecados e a afirmação de sua identidade com Deus, são interpretadas por Lewis como declarações de divindade. Como Lewis não considera que Jesus fosse um mentiroso ou lunático, ele conclui que Jesus, inevitavelmente, é Deus! O argumento incentiva a reflexão sobre a natureza de Jesus e a necessidade de tomar uma decisão sobre quem Ele é.

0104 CalvinaMente: Comportamento Cristão

A sermon about "fear" in a sermon series about managing emotions. 

Fear | Proverbs 29:25 | Managing Emotions | Reggie Lamityi | (06.07.25)

This week, Daniel Barth offers several fascinating observations about the second commandment in our series on the Ten Commandments. We're challenged to examine how we percieve, imagine, and relate to God. The core message reminds us that while we shouldn't worship other gods, we also shouldn't create false images of the one true God. This commandment, found in Exodus 20:4-6, warns against reducing God to our own preferences or imaginations. We're encouraged to see God as He truly reveals Himself, not as we wish Him to be. The sermon draws an interesting parallel between our relationships with others and our relationship with God, highlighting how misunderstanding or misrepresenting someone can lead to hurt and tension. This insight invites us to approach our faith with humility and openness, seeking to know God as He is, not as we imagine Him to be. As we reflect on this message, we're called to examine our own faith journey and consider whether we've created a 'grandfather in heaven' instead of embracing the true Father revealed in Scripture and through Jesus Christ.

The Ten Commandments | Do Not Make For Yourself an Idol - Exodus 20:1-2, 4-6 - Daniel Barth

In this final exploration of the Tenth Commandment, we delve into the heart of human desire and its complex relationship with our faith. Gayle Parker challenges us to confront our tendency to covet, reminding us that while desire itself is a God-given gift, it can easily become misdirected. By examining the story of Eve in the Garden of Eden and King David's fall, we see how unchecked desire can lead to a cascade of sin. However, the message isn't about suppressing our longings, but rather redirecting them towards their true source - God Himself. We're encouraged to find contentment not in material possessions or others' circumstances, but in recognizing that God's desire is for us. This shift in perspective can transform our understanding of joy and fulfillment, leading us to a deeper, more satisfying relationship with our Creator.
