There's a connection between happiness and wisdom. Often a lack of wisdom leads to pain. The pursuit of

wisdom brings joy. You probably know people that have grown more wise and they inspire you. but you also

probably know some who have become really foolish. So, what is wisdom? How do we get it? And how can we grow

in wisdom? In this message based on Proverbs 4 we see that wisdom is a person, a path and a practice. Join

us as we explore some of life's most pressing questions in the wisdom series. One little apology - due to

technical difficulties we lost the last part of this recording.

The inescapable promise for anyone alive is that we will experience suffering. Why do we suffer? How do we

get through suffering? And is there any meaning to our suffering. In this message we explore these universal

questions.

One you get a promise from God you need to steward the promise. And how you handle it determines a lot.

There's no better example than Joseph. There was a big gap between promise received and promised fulfilled

and he has much to teach us about our role in managing God's promises.

One of the greatest promises that God makes is the promise of His own presence. But its only on offer to

those who really want it. In this message we explore God's dealings with Moses and the Hebrews just after

they worshipped the Golden Calf.

There's power in prayer and fasting. So, many people prayed and fasted before new seasons. Moses fasted

before receiving the law, Daniel fasted before giving prophecy, and the Lord Jesus fasted at the start of

His ministry. Starting the year with prayer and fasting sets you up for a powerful year! While almost

everyone agrees that prayer is powerful, not as many people know that fasting feeds faith. In this message

we explore why there's power in fasting.

There are two types of laughs. There's a laugh that's not really a laugh (think Joker). Then there's the

real faith-filled laugh of joy. A laugh that's not afraid of the future and content in the present. And in

this message Sarah laughs at the promise of a son. She was old, she felt worn out, and she had lost hope.

But that's not how it ends for her or for you! In this message we look at how to go from the first type of

laugh to the second.

God has precious promises for you. They are promises for 2025. So, our job is to stand on those promises and

take hold of them. In this series we explore exactly how to appropriate God's promises. And we kick off with

the lesser known story of a prophet making promises to a king! Scripture: 2 Kings 13.10-19

Thirty years ago, Mariah Carey released the hit 'All I Want for Christmas Is You'. Today, three things are certain:

death, taxes, and when you hear that song, you know it's Christmas time! But part of the song's success is that it's a

fun love song. Is there an even greater love available? God loves the world and gave His Son. That's what your heart

really needs at Christmas.

Relationships can be so rewarding, but they can also be so challenging. In part 5 of our Colossians series we look at four relationships: husbands and wives, parents and children, employer and employee, and Christians and those who don't believe.

Sometimes we so much want to change. And in our desperation, we can forget that all that we need is found in Jesus Christ. In this message, we explore Colossians 1, where people who are tempted to turn to things other than Jesus are helped.
