Last week I gave two talks on worship and I genuinely think the first (a biblical theology of singing entitled 'Why on earth do we sing?') may be one of the most important talks I've ever given! Certainly one that brought me enormous personal revelation:

What is hope, and where can we find it? In this talk, I unpack the story of two disciples on the road to Emmaus, and show how an encounter with Jesus broke through their disappointment and gave them a new hope.

BUILDING WITH WISDOM (MATT 7.24–29)
The Sermon on the Mount ends with a promise that a life built on Jesus' word will be able to weather the storms of life. In this talk I look at what it means to be those who hear God's word and do what he says

What does God look for in a leader? And how can we live a life pleasing to him? In this talk I look at 1 Samuel 16, considering the difference between David and Saul.
"People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” (1 Sam 16.7)

SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM | MATT 6.25–34
Jesus teaches that we should resist worry and trust God for provision. But what does this look like in practice? In this talk I unpack 3 ways God provides, and consider how we can prioritise His Kingdom

I'm enjoying this 'choose your own adventure' from @grok and as an Arsenal fan, I naturally choose the version of reality that's most favourable to us, even if it's not in the least bit accurate!
My daughter recently asked me to tell her the whole story of the Bible. So each day as we walk to school I tell her the next bit and we discuss it.
It's been quite profound, but also amusing hearing some of her assumptions and misunderstandings:
A 🧵 of highlights so far:
In the second half of the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus invites us to bring our needs before God, asking for daily provision of food, forgiveness, and protection from the evil one. This sermon looks at how we can pray this prayer today.
