The Word at Work

Faith is a misunderstood word! What is faith? In this episode we look at  what “faith” is (and isn’t!) and see how different people showed  varying degrees of faith in response to Jesus.

Jesus was a King on a mission. In this episode, Murray looks at Jesus'  priorities. We'll see that his priority was to call sinners to  repentance - offering them forgiveness and transformation.

In our previous episode we said that miracles are there to point, not to  pull a crowd. But they inevitably DO pull a crowd and so Jesus is very  clear to would-be followers about the cost of following him - the  journey of discipleship will not be one of comfort.

In this first episode Murray Anderson, from St. Peter's Church in Fish  Hoek, looks at the authority of Jesus. The purpose of Jesus' miracles  are there to point - not to pull. He does them to show his divine  authority to restore a fallen creation and his unique fulfillment of OT  prophecies about the Messiah.   This first episode acts as an intro the whole series on Matthew 8-10.

In this episode, we encounter a direct prayer that Jesus prays for the  church. Moreover, a prayer that Jesus prays for you. A prayer that  displays the heart and intentions of our Saviour for his church.  

This is the final episode in our series on Jesus' Farewell Speech. If  you've enjoyed the series, then subscribe to our channel and become part  of our online community.

John 17 is the longest recorded prayer we have on the lips of Jesus. It  is one of the greatest prayers ever prayed and a prayer any follower of  Jesus would do well to prioritise. In this episode we look at three  things Jesus prays for that can shape our prayer life.

In this episode, we consider the forgotten role of the Holy Spirit in convicting the world of sin, righteousness and judgement.

In this episode we consider the two roles promised by Jesus regarding the Holy Spirit in the life of the early church and in the church today.

In this episode we consider Jesus’ teaching regarding the third person  of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit is promised in John 14-16, and over the  next three episodes we will consider the identity and role of the Holy  Spirit in the life of the church.

Jesus gives his disciples a truly astonishing promise in John 14:12-14. Let's explore these promises together and be bold enough to pray them.
