Lucas on Life

It’s something we all think we’re rather good at – listening. But in a world full of distractions, we can easily fail to give God and others our full attention. Join Jeff this Sunday at eight as we discover why, when we listen well, we love well.

As he considers how we can find hope in the headlines, Jeff Lucas takes us to a rather unlikely place – the British Museum. We also meet a water buffalo called Doris and take a look at next year’s weather! Join Jeff for a thought-provoking and entertaining half-hour, Sunday at eight.

There’s been a lot of talk about hope in the news this week. It’s been the theme of the Labour Party Conference, and the reason behind the creation of a memorial to J. R. R. Tolkien in Westminster Abbey.

So join Jeff as he ponders the headlines and considers what we, as Christians, are called to walk in, the hope of Christ.

There are days, and sometimes seasons, when we experience spiritual dryness, when life feels like we’re stranded in the Sahara Desert. It can be even harder when God seems silent, or when we find ourselves disappointed with Him.

But Jeff Lucas believes that navigating disappointment with God can be part of the pathway to Christian maturity.

It’s an attitude that’s hard to maintain in a grabbing world, Join Jeff Lucas as he considers the biblical call to live humbly, and an uncomfortable truth for some of us: sometimes, we might just be wrong.

How do we, as Christians, face suffering, loss and the reality of our own death if Jesus doesn’t return first?

With his trademark honesty and vulnerability, Jeff explores how we can respond, even when questions about faith remain unanswered.

Thankfulness. The Bible calls us to live thankful lives. But can practising gratitude consistently change the way we think. especially when we begin each day with thankfulness? Join Jeff Lucas, as he explores the truth that thankfulness really is good for us.

Doubt can be a real challenge for us as believers. Although the Bible has much to say about it, we can still be reluctant to talk openly about our own doubts. Join Jeff this Sunday evening as he speaks with vulnerability and hope about his struggles, and encourages us to keep trusting Jesus: the way, the truth and the life.

As Jeff turns 70, he reflects on growing older and challenges the way we think about and treat elderly people. Are we valuing their wisdom and experience, or too quick to overlook them? Jeff explores what it means to honour older generations and recognise that age doesn’t diminish a person’s value or their part to play.

In the final part of his series on strengthening your local church, Jeff Lucas explores the power of generosity. Discover how being generous with our time, encouragement, resources and ourselves can bless others, strengthen our church communities and help us reflect the generous heart of God.
