The disciples asked Jesus to increase their faith. But Jesus didn’t give them more — He gave them a mustard seed.  In this follow-up episode, Alex takes us to Luke 17 and breaks open Jesus’ response: not a strategy to grow human faith, but a picture of divine life. The mustard seed isn’t about size — it’s about source.

We’ll unpack three anchoring truths:

1️⃣ Jesus Wasn’t Giving Them a Method for More Faith

2️⃣ The Mustard Seed Is Alive

3️⃣ You Were Created to Live by the Faith of Another

This is not about stirring up more belief — it’s about receiving the faith of the Son. His faith is alive. It uproots trees, forgives without limit, and moves mountains — because it comes from the One who overcame death.

Ask Yourself:

• Am I trying to grow my faith — or am I receiving His? → Do I see faith as something I perform, or Someone I live from? → What would shift if I believed the seed of God’s own faith is already in me?

Before Pentecost, there were moments of great faith — the centurion who said, “Just say the word,” the woman who wept at His feet, even Peter who walked on water. But all of them, no matter how sincere, still lived from faith that could collapse.

Alex unpacks the kind of faith that existed before the resurrection — sincere, even commendable — but still sourced in the self. This is the kind of faith that recognises Jesus but hasn’t yet been joined to His life.

We’ll unpack three anchoring truths:

1️⃣ The Centurion — Recognition of Authority Without Indwelling Life

2️⃣ The Woman — Love-Born Trust That Still Came from the Soul

3️⃣ Peter — Revelation, Zeal, and the Collapse of Human Faith

This is a call to see the difference between soul-faith and Spirit-born faith. The old man can only muster his best efforts — but the new man lives by the faith of the Son.

Ask Yourself:

• Am I still trying to believe in Jesus — or have I seen that His faith now lives in me? → Have I confused emotional trust with spiritual union? → Am I still clinging to a sincere faith that collapses under pressure?

The new man is not the source of anything — he is the receiver of everything. Christ is your Life. Christ is your Love. Christ is your Faith.

In this third episode of No Other Foundation, Alex lays out the divine sequence of the Christian life: Life is given, Love is poured out, and Faith is awakened. This is the flow of the indwelling Christ — not performance, not pressure, but Person.

We’ll unpack three anchoring truths:

1️⃣ We live by the Life of Another.

2️⃣ We live by the Love of Another.

3️⃣ We live by the Faith of Another.

This is not self-sourced, soul-driven Christianity. This is the life of the Son being formed in you. You were never meant to produce anything. You were made to receive everything.

Ask Yourself:

• Am I trying to love God — or receiving the love He poured into me? → Do I live from knowing I’m loved, or still striving to earn it?
• Am I trying to generate faith — or yielding to the faith of the Son? → Do I believe that Christ’s own faith is already alive in me?
• Do I see the Christian life as something I must live — or Someone who lives in me?

You weren’t just placed into Christ — Christ was placed into you. You now live by the Life of Another.

In this second episode of No Other Foundation, Alex unpacks the most present-tense truth of the Christian life: Christ now lives in you. Not improved. Not empowered. Replaced. The old life has ended, and the only life the Father accepts now lives within you — His Son.

We’ll unpack three anchoring truths:

1️⃣ Christ lives in you — not I, but Christ.

2️⃣ You live by the faith of the Son of God.

3️⃣ The only life the Father accepts is the life of His Son.

This is the divine exchange. You’re not trying to live for Christ. You’re learning to live from Him — His thoughts, His obedience, His strength. Christ is your Life.

Ask Yourself:

• Am I still trying to live for Christ — or have I let Him be my life? → Do I think Christianity is about following Jesus, or containing Him?
• Do I feel pressure to believe harder — or do I know I live by His faith? → Am I depending on my own consistency — or resting in His constancy?
• Do I think the Father is partnering with my self-life — or forming the life of His Son in me? → Am I offering Him my strength — or yielding to the only life He ever accepts?

You weren’t just forgiven — you were relocated.You were taken out of Adam and placed into Christ.This is where everything begins. Not with trying to live for Jesus, but with being placed in Him.

In this opening episode of No Other Foundation, Alex lays out the most foundational truth in the believer’s life: you are now in Christ. Not partly. Not occasionally. But permanently — by the Father’s doing. This is your new spiritual location, your new lineage, your new humanity.

We’ll unpack three anchoring truths:

1️⃣ You were taken out of Adam and placed into Christ.

2️⃣ What happened to Him has happened to you.

3️⃣ Only what is in Christ can remain.

This is rebirth. You’re not a better version of the old you — the old man was crucified. You are a completely new man, created in Christ Jesus.

Ask Yourself:

• Am I still trying to fix Adam — or have I really seen that he’s been ended? → Do I believe I’ve been fully placed into Christ, or do I still think I’m stuck somewhere between the two?

• Do I think the Cross only forgave me — or do I know it also removed me from the old man entirely? → Am I living from the fact that resurrection gave me a new lineage?

• Do I still identify myself as a sinner trying to get close to God — or a son who has been placed in the Beloved?  You cannot be both a sinner and a son! → Am I building from placement, or still striving for proximity?

Christ is the Foundation - and there’s no other.

If the priesthood has changed, why are we still ministering like Levites?  Why does worship still feel like work—and presence feel out of reach?

In this episode, Alex discusses one of the most deeply embedded assumptions in modern worship: that it’s our job to carry the presence or prepare the way. But Jesus didn’t come from Levi. He came from the order of Melchizedek—and if we are joined to Him, everything has changed. There’s no more outer court, no more sacred tribe, no more man who offers on our behalf.

Ask Yourself:

• Am I still seeing worship as a way to “enter in” or get God’s attention?→ Or do I know that I am already in, because Christ is in me?
• Have I taken on a role—like a modern-day Levite—thinking it’s my job to carry the presence or create access for others, rather than pointing to the One who already has?→ Or do I live and lead as one who is already a dwelling place?
• Do I believe someone else can mediate my access to God—through worship, prayer, or atmosphere?→ Or do I come boldly because Jesus has already made the way?
• Am I still ministering from the outside, trying to get close?→ Or am I ministering from within, because I am already one with Him?
• Have I recognised that the temple is no longer a place I go, but a person I’ve become?→ Do I live like the veil is gone, the priesthood has changed, and I am now His resting place?

If you’ve already been placed, why do you still feel blocked?
In this episode, Alex unpacks what it really means to be seated with Christ and to draw near from a place you never left. From Hebrews 4 and 10 to Ephesians 2, we confront the self-life that still demands performance—and expose the real reason we shrink back. You’re not trying to get in. You’ve already been placed.

Ask yourself:

• When boldness rises in me, do I quickly suppress it out of fear of being “too much”? → Or do I trust that boldness is the natural posture of a son who’s already home?
• Am I still listening to the flesh that says I’m not enough, not ready, not clean? → Or am I letting the Spirit speak louder: that I am already in, already His?
• Do I shrink back when others misunderstand or question my confidence in Christ? → Or do I stay in alignment with what the Word says about where I live?
• Am I still trying to prove I belong before I speak, lead, or worship? → Or do I lead as one who already belongs—because Jesus brought me in?
• Do I define my access to God by how well I’ve done that week? → Or do I boldly approach every time, because of His blood, not my behaviour?

If the veil was torn, why do we still feel blocked? Why does worship feel like work—and prayer feel like performance?

In this episode, Alex unpacks the real barrier to God’s manifest presence—and it’s not distance or lack of access. Drawing deeply from Watchman Nee and A.W. Tozer, we expose the inner veil that still hides Him from us: the self-life. We talk volcano worship, soul-driven sincerity, and the breaking of the dam inside us that finally releases His Spirit to flow.

We’re not outside trying to get in. We’re the place He now lives. But the veil must be torn within.

Ask Yourself:

• Am I still worshipping like I need to attract God’s presence, or from the place where He already dwells in me? → Am I starting with lack or from fullness?
• Do I expect the atmosphere to shift before I can encounter Him, or do I know the atmosphere has already changed because I’m there?→
• Is my expectation shaped by environment or indwelling?Do I believe that refreshing comes down from above, or that it flows up from within?→ Am I still reaching outward, or releasing what’s inside?

What if the presence of God isn’t something you summon—but Someone who already lives in you? In this episode, Alex dismantles the performance-driven worship many of us grew up with and exposes the obsession with chasing moments, atmospheres, and emotions.

From John 2 to Acts 3, we follow the shift Jesus initiated: from temples of stone to temples of Spirit. You are no longer dancing around the volcano hoping for rain. You are the dwelling place. The wellspring is already within.

Ask Yourself:

• Am I still worshiping like I need to attract God’s presence, or from the place where He already dwells in me?
• Do I expect the atmosphere to shift before I can encounter Him, or do I know the atmosphere has already changed because I’m there?
• Have I embraced my identity as His dwelling place, or am I still searching for Him in places He’s already replaced?

Note - in this episode, I mention a movie scene from Madagascar - it is in fact, Madagascar 2. You can see the clip I refer to here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQp4IlURoNg

In this episode, Alex explores what prayer really looks like for the new man. Not performance. Not distance. But oneness. From John 14 to Romans 8, we follow Holy Spirit into the very conversation already happening between the Son and the Father—now taking place inside you. Prayer is no longer your effort to reach God. It’s your response to the One who already lives within.
