Playing the Fool // Wisdom That Works, Part 15 9:33

1d ago9:33

9:33

None of us likes to think of ourselves as a fool - that’s a label we reserve for other people. And yet - we’ve all done foolish things in our lives. So - how can we avoid foolish mistakes from this point forward? And how can we avoid the impact of those foolish mistakes? Well it's almost the end of another week and this is the 15th program in a ser…

A Different Perspective with Ed Fideo, Chief Exec of The London Interdisciplinary School (LIS) 46:58

4d ago46:58

46:58

Ed is the co-founder and CEO of the London Interdisciplinary School (LIS), a new university in east London that offers BASc and MASc which oriented around complex problems, not disciplines. In 2012 Ed co-founded School 21 in Stratford with Peter Hyman and Oli de Botton. In 2017 the first GCSE class achieved grades that placed them in the top 5% of …

Freely, Freely // Wisdom That Works, Part 14 9:43

3d ago9:43

9:43

Here’s one of the biggest deceptions going around at the moment. If I hang onto all my money, then I’ll be safe, secure and happy. Hmm. If only that were true. But it isn’t. By and large, it’s a lie. Safety, security and happiness - I mean real fulfilment - only tend to come our way, when we let go of the money. Not so long ago we spent several wee…

A False Balance // Wisdom That Works, Part 13 9:34

4d ago9:34

9:34

Every day, billions of financial transactions take place around the world. From buying a toilet role on the way home at the corner store, to buying and selling of global corporations. And a good percentage of those transactions involve deception and corruption. So - question is - how to avoid the bad ones. Let me ask you something today. Have you e…

Our Heart's Desires // Wisdom That Works, Part 12 9:41

5d ago9:41

9:41

Many people imagine that if they started believing in God - well, man, look at all the things I’d have to give up. And that’s true - there are some things we have to turn away from. But what I never expected was that all of a sudden what I wanted would change - and then, that God would give me the desires of my heart. This week again on the program…

The Mouth Tells // Wisdom That Works, Part 11 9:35

6d ago9:35

9:35

We all know that some people are the real deal - and others, well who they say they are, isn’t who they really are on the inside. And that - that’s dangerous. So question is - how do you tell the difference between the real ones and the phoneys. Turns out - there are some very clear indicators. Funny thing you know but what we say and how we say it…

The Fruit of Discipline // Wisdom That Works, Part 10 9:31

9d ago9:31

9:31

Let me ask you - throughout your life, no doubt, there have been times where you’ve experienced discipline - as a child and as an adult. So - did you ever enjoy the experience back then? Chances are - the answer’s no. And what about God’s discipline? Have you ever experienced that? Something worth chatting about. So … I can honestly say as I look b…

The Things That God Hates (3) // Wisdom That Works, Part 9 9:54

10d ago9:54

9:54

There are two things that most of us really hate. Firstly - someone who lies, who bears false witness. And secondly, someone who sows discord in a family - and not only do we hate those things but God hates them too. With a vengeance. And if God hates them, well, maybe they’re worth steering clear of, don’t you think? There are some things that my …

The Things That God Hates (2) // Wisdom That Works, Part 8 9:25

11d ago9:25

9:25

There are three things that most of us really hate. Firstly - someone who punishes the innocent, secondly someone who makes wicked plans and finally someone who heads off and executes those plans. Turns out - God hates those things too. And if God hates them, well, maybe - they’re worth steering clear of, don’t you think? I'm pretty sure that you h…

The Things That God Hates (1) // Wisdom That Works, Part 7 9:42

12d ago9:42

9:42

There are two things that most of us really hate. Firstly - when someone looks down their noses at us and secondly when someone lies to us. And not only do we hate it, but God hates it too. With a vengeance. And if God hates those things, well, maybe - just maybe - they’re worth steering clear of, don’t you think? A few months back I had the privil…

Impurity and Infidelity // Wisdom That Works, Part 6 9:34

13d ago9:34

9:34

Here’s a statistic that will rock your socks off. Almost half of all married men and just over a third of married women will have at least one extra-marital affair in their lives. That’s a devastating statistic. And just because someone happens to be a Christian - it doesn’t mean that we’re immune. Welcome as we kick off another week looking at stu…

True Wealth // Wisdom That Works, Part 5 9:34

16d ago9:34

9:34

Wealth is something that I talk quite a bit about on this program - and it’s because so many people go looking for wealth in the wrong places. People talk about true wealth - whatever that is. Well, what is it? Where do you get it? And is it worth having? I heard recently of a man who's about to get married and he set aside some money to build a ho…

Trust and Honour God // Wisdom That Works, Part 4 9:29

17d ago9:29

9:29

Many, many people feel as though their lives are - well, like a cork bobbing around in a stormy ocean. True. And often they’re the same people who’ve made an art form out of filling themselves up to meet every desire. But there’s a funny thing about security. It involves trust and it involves honour. Well it's been an interesting week so far on the…

The Value of Wisdom // Wisdom That Works, Part 3 9:35

18d ago9:35

9:35

Most investments yield a return during the good times. But when the storm clouds roll in - a global financial crisis for instance, they fall in a heap. What you and I need is an investment that, sure - has a return in the good times, but delivers its greatest return during the tough times. That’d be worth its weight in gold! Have you ever thought o…

Good Friends, Bad Friends // Wisdom That Works, Part 2 9:37

19d ago9:37

9:37

King Solomon was one of the wisest men that ever walked the earth. He wrote a book on wisdom for his young sons - it’s called the book of Proverbs. You’ll find it in the Old Testament. And one of the first things he talks about - is the friends they choose. Why would he do that? You remember when you were growing up, you know when we were in those …

Wisdom Starts Here // Wisdom That Works, Part 1 9:42

20d ago9:42

9:42

Wisdom is something we’d all like - but frankly, sometimes, it’s hard to know where to start? Where do you discover the sort of wisdom that works? And how do you bite the bullet - take that step to start living in wisdom with it’s sacrifices up front and rewards down the track? It's fantastic to be with you at the beginning of another week. Man the…

Clean Hands // Standing Out From the Crowd, Part 5 9:48

23d ago9:48

9:48

What we do says so much about who we are. We can do things – selfishly or selflessly. We can stab people in the back, or give them a helping hand. In fact it’s what we say and do that makes us stand out from the crowd. When was the last time someone did something for you? I mean something really special, something that they planned and executed pur…

Clean Mouth // Standing Out From the Crowd, Part 4 9:40

24d ago9:40

9:40

What we say – and how we say it – is really important. We can build relationships or destroy them. We can dominate people, or we can pull alongside them. It’s an area we all need to pay some attention to. One of the symptoms of the busy, busy world, this transactional world that we're living in is the way that we talk to one another. Maybe you know…

Clean Mind // Standing Out From the Crowd, Part 3 9:26

25d ago9:26

9:26

What we do with our mind – our thinking time – each day is really important. What do you think about? How helpful or harmful are your thoughts. How do they influence who you are and what you do? One of the things I really love to see in people is that they're the same on the outside as they are on the inside. Of course it can take a while to find o…

Cleaning the Inside of the Cup // Standing Out From the Crowd, Part 2 9:35

26d ago9:35

9:35

It’s interesting how concerned we can be about outward appearances. About looking good and dressing for success and impressing people. But our outside, depends so much on what’s happening on the inside. Imagine for a minute, you go into a coffee shop - you know, when you just feel like a good cup of coffee - and you sit down and you order your coff…

People Who Stand Out // Standing Out From the Crowd, Part 1 9:47

27d ago9:47

9:47

These days – everybody wants to be noticed. We want to somehow stand out from the crowd. Rise above the noise. What’s that all about? How can we stand out for the right reasons. It seems some days that we live in a world where everybody wants to stand out from the crowd. Ask just about any teenager and they want to be a famous something. A tennis p…

He is Coming Soon // Run the Race to the End, Part 5 9:23

30d ago9:23

9:23

Most of us live life with the expectation that one day – hopefully well of in the future, we’re going to die. We try not to think too much about that, but that’s the idea. So what if there’s an alternative? What if something else could happen – much sooner than we think? Hmm? There are two absolute certainties in life they tell us. Death and taxes.…

Even When the World is Groaning // Run the Race to the End, Part 4 9:38

1M ago9:38

9:38

Ever felt like – well, like it was all too much. That you’re groaning under the weight of life. And you look around at everyone else. They’re groaning too. It seems like it’s work, work, work. There’s no hope anymore. We’ve all been there. This week on the program, well, over the last few weeks, we've been looking at running the race and winning th…

Be Prepared // Run the Race to the End, Part 3 0:32

1M ago0:32

0:32

So many people start off running the grace race – walking with Jesus – with the expectation that it’s a walk in the park. And yet so often, it’s anything but that. Seems that from the beginning, we can have the wrong expectations. If you've joined us on the program over these last couple of weeks, you'll know that what we've been talking about is r…

Don't Grow Weary // Run the Race to the End, Part 2 9:37

1M ago9:37

9:37

I don’t know about you, but it’s easy to get tired of life. To just – well, I’ve had it. I’m sick of always being the good guy. Don’t you get it, I’m tired. Hmm. Well God – yeah, God actually does get it. The last couple of weeks on the program we've been talking about running the race in order to win the prize. Not some foot race or a horse race o…

To the End // Run the Race to the End, Part 1 9:37

1M ago9:37

9:37

I guess we’ve all run in a race some time in our lives. And we know the feeling that – well, I’m exhausted. I, I – I just want to give up. And that’s what happens to so many, when they’re running God’s race in their lives. I have a confession to make. I hate running. I love walking, I just hate running. There's something about the impact and breath…

Have an Open Heart // Essential Life Skills, Part 10 9:31

1M ago9:31

9:31

When people out there are behaving badly, our instinct, more often than not, is to close ourselves off from them. To build a wall, to harden our hearts. Hmm. Just as well that’s not the way God treats us, don’t you think? Can I ask you today just to picture the face of the person who’s causing you the most grief, the most pain, the most problems in…

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly // Essential Life Skills, Part 9 9:51

1M ago9:51

9:51

The lines between right and wrong have become quite blurred these days. Black and white are being pushed out, and there seems to be a big area of grey there in the middle. But right is still right. Wrong is still wrong. The question is, how do you live that truth out, in your relationships, in a world that prefers different shades of grey. God is a…

Treat People As Individuals // Essential Life Skills, Part 8 9:19

1M ago9:19

9:19

The more electronic, the more digital, the more transactional this world becomes, the greater is the temptation to treat everyone the same. But we’re not all the same. We’re all different. Very, very different. One of the things that’s incredibly precious to each one of us is our own name. It’s an odd thing when you think about it. I mean, a name i…

Listen Before You Speak // Essential Life Skills, Part 7 9:50

1M ago9:50

9:50

When it comes to life skills that really make a difference, knowing how to listen, how to shut up and how to speak the truth – well, I think that they would have to be right up there in the category of absolute essentials. So why is it that so often, we get this so wrong? Now when it comes to life skills that really make a difference, knowing how t…

The Power of a Tender Heart // Essential Life Skills, Part 6 9:38

1M ago9:38

9:38

How we treat other people, you and I, is the most powerful witness of who Jesus is in our lives. Treat them well, and they have every chance of experiencing His love first hand. Treat them badly, and they may never, ever, ever … come to know Him. Kindness is a much underrated quality these days. Sure, we love it when other people are kind toward us…

Becoming a Good Person // Essential Life Skills, Part 5 9:41

1M ago9:41

9:41

It’s funny how these days, there seem to be so many shades of grey when it comes to the difference between right, and wrong. But however you want to cut it, some things are right, and some things are wrong. Some people are good, and some people are bad. Which one are you? Wickedness is rather a strong word. I don’t think that any of us really think…

Dealing With Ambition // Essential Life Skills, Part 4 9:42

1M ago9:42

9:42

We each have a sense of destiny built into our DNA. This sense that, well, there’s a plan out there somewhere, somehow. Something that we’re meant to do. Something that we’re meant to achieve. And unless we lay hold of that destiny, in a sense, we feel lost, as though we’re missing something. So let me ask you, is it right to be ambitious? My dicti…

Develop Your Faith Image // Essential Life Skills, Part 3 9:34

2M ago9:34

9:34

We get a lot of our understanding of who we are, where we fit and what we’re worth, by listening to what other people say. How the world reacts to us. The problem is, you can’t always believe everything you hear. If I asked you, in twenty-five words or less, to write down who you are, what would you write? No, not some bland generalised statement. …

Be The Best You Can Be // Essential Life Skills, Part 2 9:34

2M ago9:34

9:34

At some point in the process of growing up, of maturing if you will, we all come to the conclusion that there are some things that we just can’t do. Some things that we just can’t be. We come to the conclusion that in certain areas we have limitations that we just can’t overcome. When you come to that conclusion, what do you do with it? There are c…

Grow Up // Essential Life Skills, Part 1 9:50

2M ago9:50

9:50

One of the most difficult things about moving from being a child, to being an adult, is becoming responsible. Taking responsibility for your thoughts and your actions. That’s why a whole bunch of people simply, never grow up. Let’s be honest. Some people never grow up. Now, there are different aspects to growing up: Moving from childhood through th…

Tough Choices // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 20 9:43

2M ago9:43

9:43

The choices we make along the way have a lot to do with the sort of life we end up living. Good choices inevitably have good outcomes and bad choices …. Well, you know. But there’s one choice, a certain type of choice, that comes along every now and then that’s really important. It’s going to have a big impact on our lives. And when it does come, w…

Powered by Faith // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 19 9:36

2M ago9:36

9:36

Most times when we run into difficult issues in our lives, we try to overcome them in our own strength – or perhaps with the help of a friend. But what do we do when we run into difficulties, obstacles, problems that are way beyond human strength? Then what? It’s great to be with you again today, almost the end of the week; getting there, not quite…

The Theory Is Not Enough // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 18 9:25

2M ago9:25

9:25

Ask someone whether they’d like to live an extraordinary life, and most people will say “of course I would”. But then all of a sudden, when they realise that that’s going to involve sacrifices, the vast majority back off. There seems to be a big difference between the theory and the practice. When I finished High School, almost 40 years ago now, my…

The Golden Rule // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 17 9:36

2M ago9:36

9:36

Pretty much everyone’s heard of the Golden Rule – you know, do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Yeah, okay. That’s nice. But what does it really mean, and what impact can it really have on the sort of life we end up living? I’m really excited to be with you again today, because this week again on the program we’re talking about How t…

A Different Perspective // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 16 9:44

2M ago9:44

9:44

It’s all too easy in life to get stuck in a rut. In what we say, in what we do … and actually also in what we think. And when someone challenges those things – often times we defend our actions, our words and our thoughts. But the sort of life we live, depends a lot on our ability to see things from a different perspective. Hey, it’s easy to find o…

It's Time to Go // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 15 9:23

2M ago9:23

9:23

Sometimes, looking at some parts of the church today, large parts in fact, you could swear that Jesus’ great commission to His disciples was “build something and they’ll come”. Well, it wasn’t. The key verb, the key doing word in the great commission is “go”. Go is such an extraordinary word. We are such masters of self-delusion, you and I. Come on…

Radical Power // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 14 9:34

2M ago9:34

9:34

Sometimes it seems that life is just a series of power plays – it’s all about who has power over whom. But there’s a different sort of power. The power of God. There’s nothing at all that compares to God’s power. And that extraordinary power is available to anyone who trusts in Jesus. I wonder what the word "Power" means to you. Power is what flows…

Radical Compassion // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 13 9:39

2M ago9:39

9:39

Not all of us are wired in such a way so that compassion is our first thing. It’s not that we don’t care, it’s just that compassion takes time. And in this day and age, having compassion … well, we just don’t have the time. Jesus … Jesus was a man of extraordinary compassion. Hey, I have a confession to make. I’m not naturally a compassionate perso…

The Dog with Two Masters // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 12 9:37

2M ago9:37

9:37

Most of us have heard that expression about being a dog with two masters. Turns out that dogs are simple, loyal creatures. Two masters is hard work. Two masters is confusing. So they always, always settle on just one master. The trick is … choosing the right one. When I was a young lad I had a dog called Banner. He wasn’t any particular breed. I th…

Inside Out // How to Live an Extraordinary Life, Pt 11 9:36

Most people are concerned about what other people think about them. Some people are way too concerned what others think of them. And it turns out that when it comes to living an extraordinary life, the last thing Jesus was concerned about was what other people thought about Him. They say first impressions count. Of course they do and so many people…
