Connect Week 4 - Grace and Faith

Jill looks at the balance of grace and faith in prayer and why it is so important to know how they work together - especially the difference it makes to your prayer life..

Connect Week 3 - The primary Purpose of Prayer

Andrew continues in the series looking at what the heart of prayer is all about. With '000's of books on the subject it can be confusing to know what the heart of prayer is. The answer is so very simple but the effects are profound.

Connect - A better way to pray - It's not that..

Starting the new series Andrew looks at what Jesus told us what prayer is not. Before we can build good foundations we often need to have a good look at where we are at today. Much of the teaching in the church today regarding prayer has missed the mark and left people feeling guilty, under obligation and completely unsure of why we even pray. The words of Jesus might just surprise you..

Flow Week 10 - Faith works through Love

Finishing the series on the love of God, this week is about how faith works through Love. Paul writing to the Galatians encourages us to stand firm in our freedom whereas many christians are battling to "increase their faith" when the word of God tells us that faith works through an understanding of how God loves us.

flow week 9 - practical forgiveness

we all will agree with the idea that is a good thing to forgive people. How though do we actually do that in real life? What does forgiveness look like when it is walked out each day? There are some very practical aspects to forgiveness that will help us to stay free.

Flow Week 8 - its hard to forgive pt 2

continuing to look at why walking in forgiveness is so incredibly important - what is an enemy and how could Jesus ask us to love our enemies. What happens if we do?

Flow Week 7 - It's hard to forgive

one sure fire way of blocking the love of God flowing in your life is to let unforgiveness take hold of you. What though is forgiveness and what exactly changes in us when we get to the place where we can be free from holding onto hurt? This is a key lesson for life and the benefits are far far reaching..

Flow Week 6 - get over yourself!

nobody likes to think that pride might be an issue in your life. However the bible tells us that pride is the thing that leads to every evil work in our lives. Dealing with pride is not about being a nicer people but essential for keeping ourselves in the love of God. Pride blocks Gods love from flowing in us and through us. How then do we deal with it?

Flow Week 5 - So Offended!

how do you deal with offence? one of the keys to keeping a flow of Gods love in our live is to deal properly with people when they offend us. If not we cut ourselves off from Gods love in us and through us. Discover how it is actually the enemy's plan to keep you in offence and how you can live free from it.

Flow Week 4 - How do you grow in Love?

the key is to keep growing in the love of God? Is that just christian talk or is it really possible to do that in real life? What does it look like and why is it so important to keep growing in God's love for us?

Flow Week 3 - The greatest of these is..

1st corinthians 13 is a classic bit of the bible that is largely used to describe how we should love each other. But there is so much more to it than that. Jill Boyd, associate Pastor in Exchange Church, explains what God says to us about how he loves us.

Flow Week 2 - Unconditional Love

13th September 2009 Speaker: Andrew Toogood

the world does not understand unconditional love. Our relationship with God can seem difficult when we take our own experience of love and project that onto God. His love is nothing like human love - it is a love based on His commitment to your very best - a deliberate choice that He makes....

Flow Week 1 - As simple as left and right?

6th September 2009 Speaker: Andrew Toogood

why talk about the love of God? Is this not something that we all know and understand? Andrew looks at why we need to have a look again at Gods love for us and how this will change you and your world...
