In “Sowing for the Seasons” Charlotte explores the metaphor of seeds and seasons to present the idea that God gives us seed that is specific for the season we are in.She encourages us to value that seed and the season and sow the seed at the right time so we can make the most of the opportunities in front of us.There are things we can only do in the season we’re in right now - this place with these people. Seed is sown months before the harvest, we don’t sow to see a harvest now but we sow in obedience to God and wait with hope for the harvest. May you be encouraged and strengthened to recognise, value and steward your seed and your season.

The Scriptures are full of exhortation to persevere - stand firm, don’t give up, do not grow weary. In this short message in our series on Sowing & Reaping, Rob shares some thoughts from Galatians 6 on why we sometimes grow weary doing good, and how to resist the temptation to give up.

Phil Mason presents a grace-based paradigm of giving that reflects the grace theology of sowing and reaping. Heaven’s economy is established exclusively upon giving. The more we sow, the more we reap. Conversely, the less we sow, the less we reap. Under the reign of grace we are invited to experiment and put this approach to the test. (NLT) “If you do,” says the Lord, “I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test!” (Malachi 3:10 NLT) This is the best deal going! All we need to do is switch over to heaven’s economy by allowing the Lord to establish His heart of generosity in us.

Everything in our lives rises and falls on our capacity to know that God is good, and that we can learn to receive His love, more and more! There is no limit to the amount of His love that you can receive! On this Father's Day, Maria brings a key message about learning to receive the Father’s love.However, receiving love can feel very complicated, especially God's love, as it is unconditional and requires nothing in return. Maria shares two key weapons in not being deterred from your deeper journey with the Father- our righteousness in Him and our sonship with Him.  We are qualified to receive all the benefits of His glorious love when we activate these keys.Nothing can separate you from the love of God in Christ Jesus (Romans 8). It’s all yours, and He wants to teach you again and again how to be great at receiving it! Letting the deep love of the Father in, will displace three core lies that the devil works with: I am unworthy, I am not loved, and I am not enough! The perfect love of God is designed to disp

The Prayer of Examen: How to Find God in Your Everyday LifeIn this episode, Roma Waterman teaches on the ancient practice of the Prayer of Examen—a simple daily way to notice God’s presence, reflect on the movements of your heart, and receive fresh grace for tomorrow. Rooted in the wisdom of St. Ignatius, this 10-minute message will guide you step by step through the five movements of the Examen and show you how to make it a life-giving rhythm in your walk with Jesus.

Do you ever feel like your faithfulness in the small, unseen moments goes unnoticed?In this message Dan Harbottle, Senior Leader at Glorify Church, shares a timely prophetic word for every believer.Discover how God sees and rewards your secret faithfulness, what it means to release the "Sound of Hesed" (His steadfast love), and how you can receive a fresh anointing of joy and strength for your journey. This message is an invitation to trade weariness for His power and step into the public breakthrough that your private devotion has been building.

In our third message in the Sowing and Reaping Sunday series, Joe  reminds us of the ultimate call on a believer's life, a reframe of who Christ is looking to spend eternity with. God is preparing a bride spotless and white, for Jesus, the only one who is worthy. The price to choose Jesus is high and uncomfortable, it is an act that calls us to break ourselves to The One who broke first for us. The true essence of our walk with Jesus does not end with our mortal existence, but an opportunity to develop a deeper intimacy with Jesus, as the lady who broke the alabaster jar found out, having Jesus as the focus of our adoration and purpose, brings to surface all the noise surrounding life, ministry and faith. The question asked is do we seek Jesus for him or what he can provide? The seed of intimacy has eternity as its timeline.

In this second message in our Sowing and Reaping Sunday series, Rosie invites us into the mystery of the Hidden Seed, a life surrendered to the deep, unseen work of God. At the heart of this message is the revelation that God is a sower and he is always sowing. He sows His Life, His Word, His Spirit, and His purposes into our lives and into the soil of our hearts. As we respond in the secret place, we become seeds in His hand, buried, broken open, and prepared for a harvest only He can bring. This is not a passive process, but a divine partnership that leads to lasting fruit. It is an invitation into the beauty of abiding, trusting, and letting God sow into and then through your life.

Phil Mason introduces this new series with a message that explains the relationship between the New Testament teaching on sowing and reaping and how this works within the framework of New Testament grace. All who are in Christ are “under grace,” yet we are told that the principle or law of sowing and reaping still very much applies. On the negative side of the ledger, if we sow to our old self life we reap corruption but on the positive side, God promises that when we sow to our new life in the Spirit we will assuredly reap a great harvest. The entire realm of sowing and reaping is a glorious invitation to take God at His word and see how tremendously we will reap in the Spirit if we are willing to sow our lives into the kingdom of God. Sowing and reaping applies in every arena of the Christian life. In this new series we will explore some of these fields of harvest that await those who sow and do not lose heart.

In this final session on spiritual warfare, Phil Mason took his audience on a journey of exploring the skills of defensive warfare. We are always engaged in spiritual warfare because the devil doesn’t go on holiday. To become ‘more than a conqueror’ and an overcomer, we must avail ourselves of the full protective gear God provides for us as we step onto the battlefield. Every piece of spiritual armour contributes to our complete protection from everything the powers of darkness throw at us. Understanding the significance of each piece of armour referenced in Ephesians 6 informs us of the nature of the battle we are facing. This is essential equipping for every follower of Christ. We hope you have enjoyed this series!

As we continue our series on the Life of the Warrior, Maria brings us a powerful message about some key skills for the battle. In Psalm 144:1 we read: "Praise be to the Lord my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle." David knew the secret to victory! Before you defeat your Goliath, before you go to war, before you move the mountain... we must undergo training! Our mindset for the battle truly matters, and we must arm our minds with this understanding. More than anything, we must choose to be trained. We must decide to follow “God’s program” to become great warriors! David understood the key to producing radical warriors, and it wasn't about training with spears and swords; it was in the secret place! He taught his men to be adored by God—to be embraced with the intimacy of Heaven. They were anointed because they pursued the anointing! They recognised that the secret to overcoming was intimacy with God. Many people are hesitant to fully exercise their authority these days for a variety of re

In this message Phil Mason explores what God has already done in us through the new birth, versus what He is now doing in us as we follow Him as He leads us into freedom. There are several factors that remain active in the life of the Christian until we learn how to deactivate them. The world, the flesh, and the devil all continue to exercise influence in our lives until we learn how to cut off these influences through the power of the cross and the power of the blood of Christ. These dark and sinister influences can persist in the life of an unguarded Christian who doesn’t understand the power and authority that Christ has given us to become, in his words, “overcomers!” The challenge for each of us is to overcome the world, the flesh, the devil, sin, demonic infiltration, generational strongholds, and emotional brokenness. Jesus has made full provision for our complete freedom, but we must learn how to activate the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives and deactivate every dark thing that seeks to rule and d

In our second installment from the Life of The Warrior series,  we explore what it means to walk in true spiritual authority and how authority in God’s Kingdom is rooted in deep intimacy with God.  As He walked out his life as a man under authority, Jesus modelled a life fully surrendered to His heavenly Father, His power came from this deep relationship.As sons and daughters of God, we are invited to walk in that same closeness where trust, obedience, and love unlock spiritual authority. This message is a call to draw near, abide in Him, and discover the strength that comes from being intimately related to God.

In this new series, Phil Mason introduces the spiritual warfare paradigm through the lens of King David and his role as warrior-king, appointed and anointed by God to lead Israel into battle.Every battle David won built up his personal testimony of God’s loyal love [hesed]. He never lost a battle in all his time as king. David was a hesed warrior, and he is the template for every New Covenant son and daughter.The loyal love of Father God motivates and compels us to take our place on the battlefield and stand as hesed warriors, anointed to fight the Lord’s battles, not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities and powers that cause widespread human destruction. There is a great paradox. Love leads us into war. If you want to be commissioned as a hesed warrior and discover the battles the Lord wants you to fight, this podcast is for you.

Jim gave our Easter Sunday message, sharing about the Invitation into Surrender.All relationships have a price, and deep relationships cost deeply. Pay any price to be in the community because even though it’s costly, it is worth it! Jim shares how Jesus paid the price for deep relationships on the cross and how we can respond by surrendering to the deep relationship God desires with us. Jesus modelled a supernatural surrender amid suffering and even betrayal, showing us what love looked like! Surrender feels wrong, but it’s so right and produces incredible fruit in our lives. It is always a good day for surrender!

The Book of Acts is a hoot! Starting with the day of Pentecost, we see a massive outpouring of God's power and grace! This cataclysmic event set the disciples up for a lifestyle of miracles and gift-based ministry.  The disciples continued steadfastly in prayer because they had learned from their teacher to cultivate a prayer reflex. At times, they were overwhelmed by their calling until they understood that prayer was the key to unlocking the resources of heaven! They had been commissioned to do miracles and needed to understand their source. Fortunately, Jesus had taught them! The Lord taught them to embrace a simple, childlike prayer reflex. No fanfare, no striving, just simple faith in the Father!  Our prayer life matters because it most clearly expresses our connection to the Lord. Life makes sense when we learn to respond this way; even our betrayals and losses call us to a deeper connection in prayer! God uses everything to draw us to prayer! Maria discusses several fruits revealed through a prayer lif

Joe continues the Series Acts 2:42 and shares on group identity in a Christian context drawn from 1 Peter 2:9, which declares believers as a "chosen people," a royal priesthood called to proclaim God's light. This identity is anchored in community, not individuality.Using the Beatitudes from Mark's Gospel as a framework, the values of humility, mercy, and peacemaking shape this collective identity. The poor in spirit, those who mourn, and the meek are blessed, illustrating a group rooted in dependence on God, not worldly strength.Together, these truths call Christians to unite in living out their shared identity as a countercultural testimony of grace and hope.

In this message, we explore the transformative role of joy in our spiritual journey. Building on last week’s teaching on Hesed—God’s steadfast love—we dive into the neuroscience behind joy and its impact on our identity, healing, and relationships. Scripture and science agree that we are wired for joy, and that transformation happens in our lives as we position ourselves to experience the Father’s delight. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3:18, 1 John 3, and the story of the prodigal son, this message reveals how joy strengthens community, restores hearts, and fast-tracks us into deeper intimacy with God. Joy is not just an emotion; it is a relational reality that breaks fear, heals hearts, builds belonging, and transforms us into the image of our Heavenly Father. God is looking to remove every veil and blockage to intimacy in our lives, in order that we might step into ever increasing measures of freedom and breakthrough.This message is an invitation to encounter His delight afresh so that we can step into the ful

Acts 2:42 describes the first church community, birthed on the Day of Pentecost. The outpouring of the Father’s love and the power of the Holy Spirit welded together a high-hesed community united by the shared experience of God’s hesed; His loyal, unfailing love that builds powerful bonds of attachment love to God and one another. This high water mark forever stands as the benchmark of true Spirit-filled community where everyone is under the revival anointing of ‘Hesed va Emet,’ where all the believers were gripped and electrified by God’s ‘mercy and truth.’ The Holy Spirit continually seeks to reenact this ‘charismatic moment’ where all the believers are swept up together in the flow of Hesed va Emet. The Holy Spirit is always at work to build high-hesed communities that replicate the experience of the early church gripped by divine love, power, glory, and truth. We hope you enjoy this message from Phil Mason.

In the Book of Acts, chapter 2, we see the mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the healing and infilling of many people! This outpouring resulted in a rush of energy for the things of God, and it says in verse 42 that, as a result: “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common.” We can see here that apostolic authority builds a safe place for prayer, fellowship, and communion practices, but the common thread is the power of God displayed in the apostles. It became the glue that drove the awe and ecstasy that blew up in and around them as miracles took place! God has a “recipe” for His Bride to mature and grow, and it involves right relationship with the Body of Jesus, starting with spiritual authority. Coming under the teachings of the apostles who were moving in this authority made for a seismic shi
