• #551 Tension: Faithfulness - Harvest
    Feb 17 2026

    Ever been curious does during the week? This week Pastor Chris is talking about candidly about it, tying it with the tension between faithfulness and harvest that all believers wrestle with.

    What does success look like for a Christian? We’re often tempted to measure success by results. Scripture tells a different story.

    Faithfulness is obedience - Producing a harvest is God’s work.

    When we confuse the two, we drift into anxiety, manipulation, or discouragement. God forms people through unseen obedience before visible fruit.

  • #550 Tension: Authority - Servanthood
    Feb 10 2026
    Authority isn’t domination - Servanthood isn’t weakness. Jesus shows us a better way, strength used to serve and leadership willing to bleed. Gentle for the sheep. Dangerous for the wolves.

  • #549 Tension: Tradition - Progress
    Feb 3 2026

    Tension isn’t something to escape. And it isn’t always something to solve.

    In this episode, we begin a new series exploring the tensions God intentionally holds together—tensions people keep trying to resolve, but can’t.

    We look at Tradition and Progress, and why nostalgia and novelty are both shortcuts that promise relief but quietly undermine formation. Scripture doesn’t call us backward or forward into anxiety—it calls us to remain present, faithful, and settled before God.

    Spiritual maturity doesn’t come from eliminating tension.

    It grows as we learn to stay calm, grounded, and obedient within it.

    God is not anxious.

    And neither should we be.

    If you’ve ever felt pressure to choose sides, fix everything, or escape discomfort, this conversation will help you recognise the difference between a problem to solve and a tension God may be using to form you.

    Jan 24 2026

    Two sons. Two ways of living. One feast.

    In Luke 15, Jesus exposes how both conformity and rebellion can leave us standing outside the celebration. The difference isn’t behaviour.

    This week, we’re looking at why one brother joined the feast and the other wouldn't.

    Learn why the Gospel isn’t just the beginning of Christian life—it’s the whole thing.

  • #547 Return - The Welcoming Father
    Jan 17 2026

    We all live with images in our minds. Images of success, nostalgia, a version of life where everything feels right. But when those images become our hope and what we serve, they become idols. And idols always disappoint.

    Jesus didn’t come to fulfil an imagined version of ‘home’. But to bring us to the place we truly belong.
