What does it mean to let God's love flow from wonder to witness?Delve into how our relationship with God is a journey from experiencing His profound love to expressing it openly through our lives. We unravel key insights such as embracing our unique identity in Christ, making others' value a priority, and translating wonder into action. Let's walk through the narrative of how God calls us to be His living testimony.Key Scripture: Luke 11:33-36Reflection Questions:1. How does knowing you are deeply loved by God change your everyday interactions?2. In what ways can you live out the truth that all people are important this week?3. Reflect on a time when wonder led you to witness. How can you foster that journey more frequently?Further Reading:Luke 11:33-36John 4:7-39Psalm 56:8Isaiah 43:4Matthew 10:29-31John 3:16Mother Teresa's writingsThank you for joining us.

Faith and works are inseparable components of genuine Christian life. While salvation comes through faith alone, authentic faith naturally produces good works as evidence of heart transformation. These works manifest primarily as acts of mercy - helping those in need, showing forgiveness, and extending grace to others. Through biblical examples like Abraham and Rahab, we see how true faith inevitably leads to obedient action. This understanding challenges believers to examine whether their faith is producing tangible evidence through acts of love and mercy.Key Verses:James 2:14-26Deuteronomy 6:4Romans 4:1-4Matthew 23:17Key Takeaways:True faith results in works.Faith without works is dead.Mercy is a crucial expression of faith.Understanding scripture requires context.Our actions should reflect the mercy and love we've received from God.Reflection Questions:What does it mean for faith to be 'dead' without works?How can we ensure our faith is reflected in our actions?Why do you think James uses Abraham and Rahab as examples?How can we show mercy in our daily interactions?What are some practical ways to live out our faith in our community?How do you reconcile the teachings of James and Paul regarding faith and worksWhat role does mercy play in your personal relationships?How can we as a church community support each other in living out our faith?Practical Application:This week, identify one area in your life where you can show mercy or perform an act of kindness. Make a conscious effort to act on it and reflect on how it impacts your faith journey.Support the show

We are all guilty of picking and choosing parts of the Bible to follow and to ignore. In fact, a lot of people would say it's overwhelming to think about all the dos and don'ts. But what if it was a lot more simplistic than that? What is the greatest teaching and commandment in the Bible that we need to live by? This episode will look at what that greatest command is and how we can enhance the most important relationship in our lives.  Exodus 20:4Matthew 22:34-40Exodus 20:5Matthew 19:21Colossians 3:23,24Matthew 6:24Romans 5:82 Timothy 1:8,9 AMPYou can now also WATCH C.L.!

Can our unity truly transform the world? In this powerful message, Ps Peter challenges and invites us to become the answer to Jesus' prayer for unity among believers, referencing John 17:23, where Jesus prays for His followers to be 'perfected in unity.' We're reminded that our oneness as believers is meant to reflect the oneness of the Trinity, serving as a powerful testimony to the world. Ps Peter highlights two main hindrances to this unity: our culture's emphasis on individualism and our struggle to choose love in difficult situations. As we reflect on these challenges, we're encouraged to move from a 'weak group culture' to a 'strong group culture,' where we consider how our actions impact the community rather than just ourselves. This shift requires humility, surrender, and vulnerability – qualities that mirror Christ's own example. Ultimately, we're called to grow in self-awareness and take responsibility for our brokenness, seeking healing and transformation so that we can truly become one and reveal God's love to the world.Oneness in Biblical Context1. Jesus' redefinition of familial bonds to include all believers. How Jesus expanded the concept of family to encompass all who follow God's will, thereby creating a new spiritual kinship among believers.2. The obstacles presented by individualistic culture in achieving unity. The challenge of overcoming individualistic culture to achieve unity, advocating for practices that cultivate strong group culture and interdependent relationships within the church community.3. The importance of self-awareness and taking responsibility for personal growth. Encouraging us to recognise and address our own brokenness to foster unity and love within the community.Discussion Questions:1. What is one group or community you are a part of where you feel it has a strong group culture? 2. What has been your experience of individualistic culture? Reflections:Read Matthew 12:46-50How can we redefine our sense of community to align with Jesus' view of unity among believers?Read John 17:22-23What does it mean for us personally to contribute to the unity Jesus prayed for?Read Ephesians 3:10How can recognising the spiritual power of unity change the way we approach community interactions?Read John 13:34-35, In what ways can we actively choose love over self in our relationships? ‘Understanding love beyond the individual'.Read John 17:23What specific habits or attitudes contribute to achieving the oneness Jesus desires?Further Reading:Ephesians chapters 1-4Matthew 12:46-50John 13:34-35John 17:20-23Book 'Radically Restored' by Peter McHugh available to order https://linktr.ee/PeterMcHugh Thank you for joining us.

Preaching a compelling Christmas message is a challenging assignment. How can we stay fresh year after year? Let me offer a few suggestions.1. Capture the true wonder of Christmas. Set it in the total context of the drama of redemption. 2. Avoid allegorical and sentimental approaches. Christmas messages focusing exclusively on the “sweet, precious baby in the manger” are inadequate and irresponsible. Like the flood account of Genesis, the Christmas story is a story of God's supernatural provision of Himself as Immanuel. At the same time, Scripture indicates that Immanuel was born to be our Savior, who would die as our substitute to deliver us from judgment.3. Explore less familiar texts. Tackle texts like Micah 5:2-5 contain the prophecy related to Bethlehem and assert the coming of the One who will be great to the “ends of the earth.” Consider also Zechariah's Benedictus in Luke 1:67-79. In this passage, Zechariah refers to Jesus as the “Horn of Salvation,” referring not to a musical instrument but to an animal's offensive weapons—horns.The following Bible passages make excellent preaching texts. Old TestamentNumbers 24:15–17Isaiah 11:1–10Psalm 2Isaiah 40:1–11Psalm 8Ezekiel 34:22–24Isaiah 9:1–7 (esp. v. 6)Micah 5:2New TestamentMatthew 1:18–25John 1:1–4Matthew 2:1–11John 1:1–14Matthew 2:13–232 Corinthians 8:9Luke 1:5–252 Corinthians 9:15Luke 1:26–38Galatians 4:4–6Luke 1:39–45Philippians 2:1–8Luke 1:46–56Colossians 1:15–20Luke 1:57–661 Timothy 1:15Luke 1:67–801 Timothy 3:16Luke 2:1–7Hebrews 2:14–18Luke 2:1–20Hebrews 4:14–16Luke 2:21Hebrews 10:5–7Luke 2:22–384. Connect the cradle and the cross. While Jesus entered this world as an infant in Bethlehem, grew up in Nazareth, called disciples to follow Him, healed the sick, and fed the poor, the author of Hebrews asserts that He was born to die (2:14-15).5. Intensify exposition of the wonder of the incarnation. Remind hearers that the Word did indeed become flesh. Help them grasp in some measure the reality of the Almighty as an infant of inches. Don't allow them to think of the infancy of Jesus without presSupport the showSubscribe to this podcast. Leave us a review. Point your friends to this podcast.Contact me at: alancarr@gmail.com.

What if I told you that I could prove to you in Scripture that the majority of Christian pastors today are wolves in sheep's clothing?Do you know how to biblically test someone's fruit?“Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravaging wolves. You will know them by their fruits.” Matthew 7:15-16Our Messiah is telling us that by their fruits, you will know whether or not someone is a false teacher or if they are a true follower of Him. These are very important instructions, wouldn't you agree? But how do we do that? What “fruit” are we told to test? What does Scripture have to say about this? We have a precious, beyond gracious heavenly Father who does not want His children to be confused. It is not His intentions to leave us with an ambiguous understanding of these critical instructions—that's not how He works. The answers that the body needs on how to test someone's fruit are right here in the Word. And I want to give you the Scripture you need to equip yourself on how to discern this. The answers might disturb you, because the biblical understanding of how to test someone's fruit will change everything you thought you knew and everything you've been taught by mainstream Christianity. We must let the Scripture do the talking, because the Word is loud and clear.Verses Used:“You will know them by their fruit:”Matthew 7:15-20Ezekiel 22:23-27Zephaniah 3:3-4Galatians 5:22-23The John 15 Test:John 151 John 3:241 John 2:41 John 2:6Mark 7:8-9Matthew 23:3Matthew 22:37-40Leviticus 19:18The Deuteronomy 13 Test:2 Thessalonians 2:9Exodus 7:8-13Acts 16:16Deuteronomy 13:1-3Deuteronomy 13:4Matthew 7:21-23Ecclesiastes 12:131 John 5:3Psalm 119:172Psalm 119:142The Wheat & the Tares:Luke 8:11Matthew 13:24-30Matthew 13:36-43John 10:35Contact me: stephanie@promise-perspective.comVisit my website: www.promise-perspective.com Support the show
