Cultivating Your Heart for a Spiritual Harvest (The Parable of the Four Soils)

Cultivating Your Heart for a Spiritual Harvest (The Parable of the Four Soils)

The parable of the four soils reveals that the Word of God doesn't operate mechanically or inevitably. Two people can hear exactly the same message: one can have their life changed yet the other can remain unmoved. The ultimate reason for this is explained in this all-important parable; Jesus teaches us how the conditions of our heart need to be right in order for us to experience harvest. This sermon unpacks Jesus' teaching here and shows how to transform the soil of our heart into good soil that can bear much fruit.

This sermon shows you how to harness the incredible potential of the tongue to speak faith-filled words that carry God's life-giving power into every sphere of your life.

The Eyes & Ears: What Are You Allowing In?

The Eyes & Ears: What Are You Allowing In?

When a doctor wants to check the health of a patient, she will often check the eyes with a flashlight and the ears with an otoscope. Our eyes and ears are vital to our spiritual health too, for these are the key gateways through which thoughts come into our mind in the first place. What gets your mind ultimately gets you; what you allow in makes its way out into your words, actions and habits. This is why it's important you exercise control over your eyes and ears through the guarding of these gates and the feeding of your mind with a good, wholesome, godly diet. This sermon shows and inspires you how to do just that!

What's On Your Mind?

What's On Your Mind?

What we think affects everything! Our thoughts have the power to either help us or hurt us, for where your mind goes, you follow. This means that if you want to have a better life, you need to have better thinking. This sermon shows you how to win on the battlefield of the mind by laying aside negative thoughts and choosing to put on godly thoughts. You will learn how to overcome Satan's attacks by bringing the mind into submission to God's Word and also discover how to advance the purposes of God through your thought life rather than aiding and abetting the enemy.

Best Instruction Before Leaving Earth

Best Instruction Before Leaving Earth

There are books and there are books and then there is 'The Book', namely the Bible. Nothing can compare to the Word of God - it has no equal and is vital to the life of every Christian, from the youngest believer to the oldest. The Bible is the best instruction manual you will ever need here on earth. This sermon gives a brief overview of the Bible and explores why it is so important for us to engage with it.

A Word & Spirit People

A Word & Spirit People

Some churches claim to be more Word-centred and others more Spirit-centred but the choice between study of the Word and pursuit of the Spirit is simply a false dilemma. The only option is “both/and”, not “either/or”. Ultimately theology cannot be avoided; it’s never a question of theology or no theology but good theology or bad theology. This message is a call to be Spirit-filled theologians – a Pentecostal people anchored in the Word and immersed in the life of the Spirit.
