With so many people poor and with other needs, should we really have such a big emphasis on evangelism? How we can bring Good News to the Poor which helps them both practically and spiritually?

However much the Bible tells Christians to share their faith many of us still feel weak and inadequate to do so effectively. It turns out that the solution is to deliberately focus much more ourselves but also much less on ourselves. The results, it seems, can be truly staggering...

Some Christians seem to have amazing conversations about Jesus with people who don't believe. How can each one of us get going at making more of these opportunities, in our own style, and who is the expert we all need to learn from?

Handling our money well is always a challenge; it often seems like whatever we do we are always one step behind. Too many Christians focus only on dubious pseudo-spiritual shortcuts instead of listening carefully to what the bible actually says. So how can we really keep the upper hand when dealing with our finances?

Telling others about Jesus is a key part of living as a Christian, yet many believers have found that it doesn't seem to work out for them like it should. People ignore, reject or ridicule us and our message; or if they do respond their interest is short-lived and peters out over time. Is there something wrong with our message or our methods? The surprising answer is, 'Probably not.'

We start this series by travelling back in time to look at a dangerous letter announcing the new King in town.

The King has Mail which needs to be delivered and we have a great Mission to take part in so that all know this news!

Like Jonah many of us struggle to live life the way God wants us too. And when difficulties come it only seems to discourage us even more. So what should a life lived in relationship with a Gracious and Compassionate God really look like? How should that spill over into the lives of the people around me?

Changing our external behaviour is hard; trying to change on the inside is even harder. Self-centredness, hard heartedness and laziness all lurk just below the surface, contaminating many of our best efforts at goodness. How can we make any progress in real obedience to God when he sees just how flawed we really are?

Ever felt like life just isn't working? Sometimes that's just the way things go, but we also need to be open to the possibility that God just might have a reason for it. Being stuck inside a fish is never fun but, approached the right way, it can be extremely productive.
