Grief. All of us will experience a form of grief at some point in our lives. Maybe you already have, maybe you are grieving as you read this devotion. It could be the death of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, a sudden change in circumstances. That feeling of pain, emptiness, of an uncertain future. During those times, a natural reaction is to ask - where is God? Why is this happening? How can I enjoy God in my grief?This year we are blessed to have YouVersion on board so that you can listen to the podcast and follow along with the companion reading plan.Head to our Instagram for more info on things coming up!Be sure to leave a review or even share if you enjoyed this podcast.Join us live at St Paul's Castle Hill on Sunday's here!

There are so many moments in life when we just do not understand what God is doing, or why he is doing it. It is really common to get discouraged in these moments of ambiguity, and our enjoyment of God can diminish because we are frustrated with him. So how can we enjoy God when we don’t understand him?This year we are blessed to have YouVersion on board so that you can listen to the podcast and follow along with the companion reading plan.Head to our Instagram for more info on things coming up!Be sure to leave a review or even share if you enjoyed this podcast.Join us live at St Paul's Castle Hill on Sunday's here!

There are many circumstances in life that might make it difficult to feel God. It might be through a season of grief and loss, a change in circumstances that you didn’t foresee or even mental illness.The good news is that what you feel doesn’t change what is true. You can rest on the promises of God who is omnipresent. There will be moments in the life of every follower of Jesus when you have to decide what you believe about God even when you can’t feel him. Where you lean on his character through all situations.We're also joined by a very special guest for 'Proverb Schmoverb'.This year we are blessed to have YouVersion on board so that you can listen to the podcast and follow along with the companion reading plan.Head to our Instagram for more info on things coming up!Be sure to leave a review or even share if you enjoyed this podcast.Join us live at St Paul's Castle Hill on Sunday's here!

Intimacy through Busyness. Busyness has become a major marker of our generation. We are flat out, at capacity and often on the edge of burnout. However, there is a misconception that busyness equals productivity, importance and meaning. Our lives have therefore become a competition about who is busier. But in reality, busyness is simply noise that is taking away from our most important relationship.

Welcome to the Generation Podcast!This week we look at the idol of community. We often overlook or are unable to see how community can take the place of God in our lives.

Welcome to the Generation Podcast!This week we look at the idol of approval, for us the most prevalent in our own lives and likely one of the driving forces of our culture. Idolising approval robs us of a proper experience of God's love for us, and stops us from searching the heart of God and seeing ourselves as Christ does. Why does criticism crush us, why do we never feel good enough, smart enough, pretty enough? It's likely a misplacement of approval. In order to have renewal in our generation, it must start in our own hearts. In order to seek the face of God and enjoy him, we need to give up seeking the approval of people, and start realising who our heavenly Father says we really are. And only then will we have true joy.We hope that you enjoy this episode, please subscribe to stay up to date with our latest content and follow us on instagram @generation_ya!
