• Transformed - Module One - Session Four
    Jan 8 2026
    In this episode of live teaching we look at the question of LOCATION in considering building a new life. When we consider moving house, the question of who you will be moving away from, and who you will be moving closer to, should be considered. Even though our new house will be a metaphor (as used by jesus in Matthew 7:24) the question is still relevant. It is likely that the changes you want to make in your life will necessitate changing some relationships. In some cases it will be a simple adjustment of seeing some people less or a little more, but in other cases it may mean removing yourself from relationships, and this can be very difficult. It's not just the relationships with others, the real cost of the new house is the old house! And of course the relationship with yourself is the main component of the changes you will make. This session also introduces you to the concept of parts and invites you to consider and name your first 'part'. Thank you for taking the time to watch this session, and I hope you get a lot from it.

  • Transformed - Module One - Session Three
    Dec 19 2025

    In this video we approach the idea of preparation from the first of three main questions, namely cost. What are you wanting to achieve as part of your spiritual development? Whatever it is for you personally, the preparation you make will be a huge factor in your results. Spiritual progress is difficult if you do not understand the difference between the flesh and the spirit, and especially difficult if you do not kow that they can never mix! But once you understand this difference, and start by making a very clear distinction between the two of them, you can begin the process of inner discipling. This is one of the main resources that the Lord has left us once we are on a salvation journey.

  • Transcendence - being an overcomer
    Oct 1 2024

    In this episode we take the idea of transcendence and open up what it means, how it relates to the idea of overcoming that we get from the Bible, and what it might mean for your progress, development and recovery.

    The Bible says that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord is an overcomer, but some Christians don't always feel this way. Eseially when things don't go well, or they are disappointed with themselves. This episode shows the way towards contentment and growth following the Biblical approach.

    Aug 6 2024

    Following a trip to the William Wilberforce Museum I wanted to discuss the idea of rights and responsibiities from a Christian perspective. I'm including the subject of slavery as well as some of the consequences of getting this balance wrong.

    This is not the final word on this subject, but maybe a starting point for you to consider these complex questions. Below i a link to the Wilberforce story
