Living Spring Podcast

In moments of unexpected challenges, our immediate emotional reactions can catch us off guard. Jesus imparts wisdom on the significance of aligning our thoughts, empowering us to manage emotions, especially when our physiological responses threaten to overwhelm our senses. As we wrap up our series on "What, what?", Pastor John delves into the scriptural teachings about gaining authority over our minds.

Understanding the Bible requires understanding the context and choosing a translation that resonates personally. This week, pastor John talks about how approaching the scriptures with humility, seeking guidance from the Holy Spirit, maintaining a structured plan, consistent pace, dedicated place, and having a supportive community contribute to a more meaningful engagement with the Bible.

All to often we strive to exceed our limits. This often results in life imbalances that contradict God's intended design for us. Pastor John highlights the significance of creating a margin in our lives this week, illustrating how doing so fosters a closer connection with God without exhausting ourselves in the pursuit of life’s challenges.

In this week's sermon, Pastor John explores the question of how we can discern if we have truly heard from God. Exploring seven key ways through which Bible scripture serves as a guiding light, he unravels the various ways in which God communicates with us. Join us this week to better understand the ways God speaks to our hearts.

We are reminded today by the Apostle Paul that we are to be anxious about nothing. What, what?! How are we supposed to do that in the world we live in today? Today Pastor John highlights talks about what the Bible tells us about how do deal with anxiety.

Today we are reminded that Jesus wants the very best for us. All we have to do is ask of Him, and then not doubt he will answer our prayer.

This week we celebrate the coming of Jesus as Pastor John talks about how our most joyful moments have come after taking a risk. Much like Mary & Joseph took a risk when they travelled to Bethlehem to make way for the Messiah.

This is part two of a two part sermon. Christmas is all about celebrating the coming of our King. But what kind of kingdom does He rule? This week we talk about 10 principles of the kingdom that Jesus establishes and why it is, in fact, good news.

From the beginning of creation God wanted to be in relationship with us. Time and time again, He would make a way to bridge the gap and we would end up choosing something different. This week we begin part one of a two part sermon on the Good News of a new Kingdom he wants to establish.

Sometimes during the holidays we can get so wrapped up in our to-do list that we forget one of the most important points of Jesus’ birth. It is good news. Why? That’s what we talk about this week.
