The idea of no longer being a slave resonates within us because that is how Jesus wants us to be - free! We are all on a journey and the best days are yet to come, we are moving from glory onto glory! When we view life as a slave, it is very difficult to see what God has in store for us – God is at work in us all, and his grace is bigger than our imperfections!

What kind of faith do you have? Jesus met people who looked like they had great faith and they were able to receive from him. When we hear that many of us feel like we will never receive fullness because we do not have enough faith. There is more to it than that. Faith has become a burden to many but the good news of grace is that the demands of law are no longer ours. What Jesus described as great faith may just surprise and release you. Why? You already have it..

It is okay to say that most people want to trust God more than they do. Jesus is our qualification for every blessing. We cannot earn His love or favour - we can only receive it. yet many if us understand what it means to believe God and doubt at the same time like the father in Mark 9.How does grace help us? What did Jesus mean when he talked about unbelief? Find freedom in this talk as Andrew looks at the difference between faith and belief and see how all you need is already provided by Jesus.

"God wants to bring us to a place where we can live as His children, not as slaves but we can't do it ourselves. In this talk, Phil uses the account of the Children of Israel's experiences at the Red Sea to illustrate how God will lead us to a place where we can see His salvation and move forward into a new life of freedom - a life as a son and an heir"

Easter Sunday was the day when the stone was rolled away. The difference for us all is massive.  We often keep our mess hidden so that no one can see it. We try to cover it up with effort, trying to please people and accumulating stuff. The stone being rolled away from the grave is a picture of the law being rolled away. When that happens there is resurrection life.

How do you actually walk in freedom - getting rid of guilt & shame? The answer is faith. People freak out when they hear about faith because they do not know what it is or how to operate in it. You do not need to waste faith on things or outcomes - God has already promised you a blessing. So what is it and what is it for? It releases you into grace. Find out more

At times we turn away from Jesus when we fail. We feel bad, making the same mistakes we promised we would stop. We try but it can feel impossible at times. Jesus is never the source of your shame or guilt. His perfect work took that away. Today Andrew shows how Jesus himself dealt with someones disappointment by showing himself to them from the very beginning. Their hearts burned as a result. Every time you see Jesus revealed your heart will burn - no more shame. No more guilt. No more condemnation.

What is shame and what effect does it have on you? It is different from guilt. Guilt is when you realise you did something wrong. Shame is when you believe you are what you do. Your entire identity is based on your failures & mistakes. The effects of this can range from mild embarrassment to an awful sense of unworthiness that cuts a person off from a meaningful relationship with God and with each other. We struggle to receive anything from God if we believe that He is judging us on what we do.

The good news of grace is that it goes to the deepest parts of our lives and shows us that Jesus took every bit of shame and dealt with it. You can be truly free from shame and guilt - all the free gift of Jesus!

What do you do with guilt? It stops us receiving from God as we are constantly reminded that we fall short. How can we expect to receive if we every day we fail? Jesus took the guilt and all of its effects and removed it through His death on the cross. We do not need to hide anymore. We can be free from condemnation and guilt.

What is the root of your problem? The world and Christians alike both spend huge amounts of time, money and effort dealing with negative symptoms in their lives in an attempt to make it better. But so very few find real freedom & healing. Why? We do not deal with the root. The answer is not physical or psychological. It is spiritual. That is why we need to receive the finished work of Jesus - Grace gets to the root of all the sickness - and that root is condemnation. This is freedom - listen and allow the Lord to love you and you will receive freedom!
