Join Dave and Mandy as we reach the end of our series in Jeremiah.  We take a deep dive into Lamentations - a poetic response to the events described in Jeremiah, and then take a look back at the structure of the book and what we have learned as we studied the hard word.

Join Mandy and Andrew as we take a deep dive into Jeremiah 34-44 and think through the importance of hearing God's word, understand more of the process a preacher goes through in understanding a passage and working out how to preach it, and tackle some questions from Sunday. Stay tuned right to the end for a special something.

Join Mandy and Dave as we think more about prophecy: how it is conveyed and fulfilled.  We also think through the theological significance of Jerusalem, explore some wonderful promises that point us to Christ and consider another lens through which we can view Jeremiah 30-34: the lens of grace.

Join Dave and guest host Andrew Levy as we explore further into Jeremiah chapters 25-29.  Dave and Andrew ask the question 'which exile are we talking about?' as we look at Judah's complex history of multiple sieges and deportations to Babylon, they then talk about what makes the prophetic showdown between Jeremiah and Hananiah so climactic before thinking through the nature of true and false prophecy in the Old Testament, the New Testament, and today.

Join Dave and Mandy for a special edition on speaking the hard word in love, inspired by Jeremiah. We think practically about what it looks like to be courageous and speak the hard word, and how to listen to it.

Join Dave and Mandy on Sermon Seasonings first birthday as we did into Jeremiah 7 and think a bit more about the relationship between Jeremiah 7 and 26, the pathos of the judgement poetry and reflect on the relationship between continuing to sin and presuming on grace.

Welcome back for Season 5 of Sermon Seasonings where Dave and Mandy are joined by Paul Hallam, who works with us a few days a week helping Dave in the Maturity space, and also doing all our graphic design.  We dive deep into Jeremiah 1 and consider the Structure, Historal Period and then a comparison with Jeremiah and Moses.  

While Mandy has a well earned week off, in our final podcast of Season 4 Dave talks with Andrew Levy about the powerful message behind an unusual miracle as Jesus chooses to heal a blind man in two stages.  We also talk through what it means to declare that Jesus is the Messiah before finishing by reflecting on what it means to take up our cross and follow him.

Join Dave and Mandy as we explore Mark 7:1-8:21 and consider the remarkable cleansing that Jesus offers.  In today's podcast we consider Mark's gentile audience and have a look directly at some excerpts from the Mishnah to better understand the pharisees, before returning to the structural question raised last week.  In the final section, we look in more detail at the Syrophonecian woman, the deaf mute man and the feeding of the 4,000 as we see the gospel going out to the gentiles as well.

Join Dave and Mandy as we dig in to Mark 6:30-56 and look at the way the feeding of the 5,000, Jesus walking on water and healing many.  We explore many of the Old Testament allusion and see how they fill out Jesus identity.  His is God, but he's not just a powerful divinity, he is the redeemer and saviour of his people.
