Passage: Matthew 7:7-8. What happens when you combine an infectious love for the Good News of Jesus with a genuine person? Overflow. Maybe you're jaded by talk of evangelism or maybe you've been the target, but either way, this message is a refreshing invitation to live and share Good News with everyone around us. We can do this.  This message is part of the Church Life series. 

In this personal message, David Varney teaches on the Four Seasons of Church Life as understood from the perspective of Israel's experience. In Deuteronomy, Moses addresses the entire covenant community before they cross over the Jordan River to enter the Promised Land. Church planting can sometimes feel like a long period in the wilderness, but we see from Deuteronomy 8 that there is purpose in the wilderness - God means for us to grow in humility and faith, to depend on him above everything else in life. Wilderness is not fun, but it is necessary. It is only there that growth in humility and faith can truly develop. In this sermon we discuss each of the four seasons a church may find itself in, and think about how we may progress towards longterm health and multiplication.

Why does it seem like there is a "disturbing lack of discernment" within church bodies today? According to Pastor John MacArthur, there are six reasons for this tragedy. In this episode, we talk through these six reasons and express our agreement or disagreement with them. We would love it if you liked, shared, and subscribed to our podcast. As always, an honest, five-star review is appreciated! Thanks for listening! 

On today's episode I'm sharing a bonus episode that those from last year's Wholehearted Summit gained access to who had purchased the all access pass. It's a deep conversation to get ready to be challenged, get a little uncomfortable but also be given an opportunity to grow, heal and learn if you listen with a teachable heart. My friend Kim and I chat about something called an overlay. If you don't know what an overlay is, they are expectations and social norms placed on you to show up in a certain way to the world, even within the perimeters of a church communityYou'll hear us talk about in this episode:How overlays can cause mistyping with the enneagramWhy you don't have to apologize for having the personality you doExpectations in the church for women to act a certain wayWhy being Christ like is NOT just acting like an Enneagram 2The harm of trying to show up as a personality that isn't yoursWhy making someone uncomfortable with your personality isn't wrongThe struggles different Enneagram types feel being themselves in the churchRegister for the 2nd Free Wholehearted Summit here!Connect with Kim online:WebsiteInstagramConnect with Amy online:WebsiteInstagram

We read the bible to know God and be transformed by him  The post Bible | Rhythms of Church Life | 21 August 2022 appeared first on Living Church.

What you read goes a long way toward shaping the kind of person you become. At the same time, the kind of person you have become goes a long way toward determining how you read what you read, what you think about and how, and the ways in which you interpret the world around you. This mutual shaping of what and how you read, and the kind of person you become is fundamental to C. S. Lewis' theory of education, especially but not only in regard to the education of children. His classic philosophical work on education and moral formation is The Abolition of Man, but my guest on this episode also wants to show us how Lewis' understanding of a truly human education forms and animates especially one of his seven Chronicles of Narnia –– namely, The Silver Chair. Dr. Rebekah Lamb is a lecturer in theology and the arts at the School of Divinity at the University of St. Andrews, in Scotland. She is one of the four principal faculty members in the Institute for Theology, Imagination, and the Arts. She is also a contributor to a new volume from Ignatius Press for which I served as editor––that title is The Chronicles of Transformation: A Spiritual Journey with C. S. Lewis. Dr. Lamb's chapter is called, “Out of the Shadows: C. S. Lewis and the Idea of Education in The Silver Chair.” That chapter is accompanied by six other chapters from other scholars, treating the rest of six Chronicles of Narnia, as well as by seven original illustrations, seven original poems, and an introductory chapter about arriving at Narnia. This volume is primarily intended for adult and young adult readers, to help you rediscover the childlike wonder that is absolutely necessary to enjoy the deep spiritual treasures of these beloved children's stories… which, as it turns out, are not just for children. We first recorded this episode a few years ago when Dr. Lamb visited Notre Dame to give a lecture on The Silver Chair, which served as the basis for her chapter in The Chronicles of Transformation. As for me, I'm Leonard DeLorenzo, this is Church Life Today, a production of the McGrath Institute for Church Life. I'm glad you're here.

Fr. Michael Ward is a member of the Faculty of Theology and Religion at the University of Oxford. He is the author or editor of several books, including Heresies and How to Avoid Them, The Cambridge Companion to C. S. Lewis, and After Humanity: A Guide to C. S. Lewis' ‘Abolition of Man'. But it was another one of his books that Walter Hooper, the esteemed literary advisor to the Estate of C. S. Lewis, lauded as “unsurpassed in showing a comprehensive knowledge of and depth of insight into C. S. Lewis' works.” That book is the groundbreaking and persuasive Planet Narnia: The Seven Heavens in the Imagination of C. S. Lewis. Fr. Ward brought his world-class expertise on the works of C. S. Lewis to a new volume recently released from Ignatius Press, for which I myself happened to serve as editor. This book is The Chronicles of Transformation: A Spiritual Journey with C. S. Lewis. In the book we take Narnia seriously as a place where the choices and actions, the desires and dispositions of children affect their own destinies and the fate of the world. It is a place where children learn what it means to grow in maturity, to become responsible and develop character. But it is also a place where adults can always start over in relearning what is all too quickly forgotten, for the sake of their own moral and spiritual transformation. For his part, Fr. Ward authored the chapter on Lewis's Prince Caspian. In his chapter, Fr. Ward helps us to get acquainted with and be delighted by what it feels like to live inside a chivalric tradition. We first recorded this episode a few years ago when Fr. Ward visited Notre Dame to give a lecture on Prince Caspian. Our conversation moves broadly across and deeply into the imagination of C. S. Lewis. As for me, I'm Leonard DeLorenzo, this is Church Life Today, a production of the McGrath Institute for Church Life. I'm glad you're here.
