In Part 5 of our Resilient Disciples series, Stu, Tim and Joel dive into the Last Supper death work showcased at the Paris 2024 Olympics opening ceremony and explore how Christians can respond with both sorrow and love in the face of God being mocked.They also unpack how being a resilient disciple involves living counter-culturally and partnering with God in His mission to make more disciples. As the world grows increasingly secular and Christians become a minority, it's crucial to resist the temptation to conform church practices and ourselves to societal norms. Instead, we're called to return to the example of the early Christians, embracing the counter-cultural nature of our faith and supporting one another in our shared mission with God.00:00 Intro01:33 CULTURAL ARTEFACT: The Olympics Last Supper17:02 CULTURAL ARTEFACT: Blues Brothers21:58 Individualism has lead to entitlement in the church29:39 Transformed to counter-intuitively work together43:25 A lack of surprise that Christians are mocked51:40 Just a Christian version of everybody else1:00:33 The shift of Christians not being in the minority1:05:52 Going to church is the counter-cultural distinctiveDISCUSSED ON THIS EPISODEAlexamenos GraffitoParis 2024 Last SupperBlues BrothersJean TwengeDoes Money Make You Mean? by Paul PiffPiss ChristMoonbah FestivalCONTACT USShock Absorber Email: joel@shockabsorber.com.auShock Absorber Website: shockabsorber.com.auSoul Revival Shop: soulrevival.shopCheck out what else Soul Revival is up to here

Four Habits Of Resilient Disciples | 25.02.24 by St Michael's Church, Chester Square

“The identifying mark of a resilient disciple is to have love for one another. How can we be offended with others if we have love?” - David Tan In week 2 of our sermon series on being Resilient Disciples, David brought us a word on being unoffendable, speaking from Matthew 18:15-17, and Galatians 5:16-17. In life, there are many opportunities for us to be offended, but David reminded us that when people offend others intentionally, it's because they feel hurt. In those situations, as disciples of God, our response shouldn't be to be hurt by the person causing offence, but to hurt for them, knowing and seeing the hurt that the person carries. Scripture also tells us that receiving offence is inevitable in life. However, to be offended is a choice that we make. May we instead make the decision to live our lives fixing our eyes on what is unseen and on Jesus, to remain unoffended and live with eternity and love for one another in mind.

Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Is this verse a personal guarantee of God's blessing? Or is it a reminder of something greater when we don't see the blessing? Join us this Sunday as Pastor John unpacks Jeremiah 29.

The Generational Awakening  Harry Bryans As we see things happening, which the Bible clearly tells us they WILL be happening in the final days, we also see a major problem in the Body of Christ. Discipleship. Rather, a “lack of discipleship.” The Global Church is experiencing a Discipleship Crisis where as few as 10% of youth in our Christian families and churches are considered as having a clear and “resilient” faith, and increasing numbers are leaving the church. We need an awakening by God of all the generations in the Church today to see things from God's perspective and discover how He would have us intentionally and proactively work together to more effectively nurture our children to become Resilient, Lifelong Disciples of Jesus. Amen! To help this effort, our guest today is leading an effort to make that happen!  Harry Bryans has over 38 years' experience serving as a missionary on a local church pastoral team, with children's, youth and family ministries in Europe.  He has helped launch youth ministry networks in Europe and the in the organization of European Ministry Conferences. He has served on several international partnership initiatives over the years, through Action International Ministries. He is also a John Maxwell Certified Team Member with specializations in youth and parenting. Praise God! Help me welcome to the program, Harry Bryans!  Harry, it is so good to have you join us today. I appreciate your time! First question I always ask is, other than that brief information I just shared… Can you tell us in  your own words, “Who is Harry Bryans?” It sounds like your heart is deeply rooted in Youth Ministry. What motivated you to focus on that very needful area of ministry? Other than the fact that the children of today are the leaders of tomorrow, why is it so important that children grow up as disciples of Jesus from an early age? You mentioned that less than 10% of the youth in our churches today are considered “Resilient Disciples?” Explain for our audience what a “resilient disciple” means… Do you see discipleship as a major failing of the church today? Is it possible for them to realize God given talents and abilities, their purpose in life, etc. from a young age? Can you share a bit about your book you are writing, “The Generational Awakening” and how this will help in the area of discipleship? Why do you believe the Global Church, as a whole, is experiencing a discipleship crisis? How does your book help to address this discipleship issue? You have a YouTube channel where you are sharing information on this topic, correct? https://www.youtube.com/@thegenerationalawakening777 I understand you also have a Facebook page that will provide some information as well? https://www.facebook.com/groups/thegenerationalawakening When will your book be released? Do you have a pre-order page or anything like that? Harry, this is so interesting – and definitely so...
