Podcast by Christian Life Church
Is God seated in the highest seat of your heart? What needs to be sacrificed in order to fully connect with God? What do you need to take off in order to wear his garment of praise?
'We're too tired, dissipated and torn in various direction to sustain prayer on the basis of feelings. We need something else to help us. What? Ritual - a rhythm, a routine.'
One perspective on the Good News that's not so good, and one perspective that's way, way better.
Worship, prayer, ritual and rhythms. How do we keep our focus on God?
Your Story. His Story. Our Stories together. All Restored to Restore.
'These five values are how we outwork out purpose...'
Are we the typical kids at a party meal, or do we trust our host?
Phill shares on cognitive dissonance, how we relate to Jesus some good questions to ask God.
Do you truly believe God is generous? Do you truly believe you are a generous person? Let's explore His nature and our nature together...
...and how do you fix your eyes on things you can't see?
'We CAN'T stop the struggle, but we CAN learn to fly'

Adam shares his personal journey through the last 12 months. Anxiety, grief, God's goodness and keeping power. There are keys in here for all of us.
Adam shares how we have experienced the holding power of God, and how we will fly into the new coming season.
'Before we enter a new season, we must transition well from the current one.'
Why do 'living in community' and 'efficiency' rarely work well together? And who needs this many hedge trimmers??
'Share together. Not because you don't have your own, or can do it alone... but because you're choosing to be in community.'
Maybe 'independence'could be renamed 'desperately awaiting reconnection'... Watch Anna's song 'I AM' from midway through this teaching here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/dErTTZbtwHPEKHVd/
Built into a spiritual house, standing together, reminding each other of God's goodness.
'For if the willingness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what one does not have'
'Father, thank you that in my brokenness I am becoming more unique.'
Jars of clay, oil on water & stillness in the storm...
'Family is the place of our deepest hurt and our deepest healing'
Where are our strongest emotional bonds? Where is the greatest school for the love of Jesus?
Moving from 'The community for myself' to 'Myself for the community'
The disciples probably hated each others guts to start with... but they had ONE thing in common… Jesus is MORE than enough to build community around.
'Come be a part of my life.' It's not just the event, it's the power of the invitation. We are devoted to LEARNING, SHARING, EATING and WORSHIPPING together.
'Building community takes the continuous choice of every individual within it'
It's not mostly in the 'magic' that we're built together, it's in the mundane. Devoted to LEARNING, SHARING, EATING and WORSHIPPING together.
Devoted to LEARNING together. SHARING together. EATING together WORSHIPPING together.
