God has a habit of wanting to speak right into the circumstances that we’re travelling through here and now; the very issues that we each face in our everyday lives. Everything from dealing with difficult people … to discovering how God speaks to us; from overcoming stress … to discovering your God-given gifts and walking in the calling that God has placed on your life And that’s what these daily 10 minute A Different Perspective messages are all about.

That is why we do not shy away from this topic but start to have conversations about it. Join us when we talk with a variety of people in senior leadership positions with a different perspective.

Okay, so Jesus promised us an abundant life. And so often we’re head down, pedalling so hard, we lose sight of the big picture. If there is a heaven and a hell – and eternity to go with them – then the reality of heaven and hell is infinitely bigger than the reality of here and now. What about life then and there? Great to be with you again today o…

Sometimes as we’re travelling through things in life that we’d rather not be travelling through, we can get to imagining that any promise of God’s blessing, of an abundant life – must be a promise for some time way off in the future. Certainly not for here and now! But what if I told you that He means if absolutely – for here and now. I sometimes t…

I spent a good chunk of my life looking for happiness, but I never found what I was looking for. Problem with happiness is that it’s linked to our circumstances – can’t be happy if something difficult is happening. Turns out, I wasn’t looking for happiness at all. What I longed for, was joy. It’s just back then, I didn’t realise that, because I did…

I don’t think there’s a single person on this planet, who doesn’t want to have peace in their lives. A cessation of conflict and wrangling and fighting. Of course conflict comes in many different forms – the words, is a conflict with God. Turns out that one of the things Jesus wants to bless us with, is peace. We’re looking this week at Jesus’ outr…

My hunch is, whether we like it or not, that we’ve been conditioned into thinking that God’s blessing has something to do with being healthy, wealthy and wise. Hmm – and yet God’s idea of blessing is something entirely different. It begins with the blessing of righteousness. Sounds odd I know – but there’s an abundance of blessing in this thing cal…

Life can be a grind, and frankly life can get us down. We all know that. And so our view of what life is, and what it should be, becomes all twisted – inside out and upside down.

One of the ways that God explains His relationship with us, is that He is our Father, and we are His children. And actually, when you think about it, a father–child relationship is, or at least should be – an incredible blessing. So, if God’s our Father, and we’re His children – shouldn’t that be … a blessing? We’re chatting together this week on t…

If there’s one thing we can all agree on about Jesus it’s that He didn’t do anything by half measures. No –– He threw Himself into things and when He said something, He meant it. So – when He promised us an “abundant life” – the words in the original Greek language literally mean – a super–abundant life! Told you – He doesn’t do anything by halves!…

Jesus promised each of his disciples – that’s anyone who believes in Him – an abundant life. Yeah, right!! But in the same breath – in the very same verse in the Bible, he also says that there’s a thief – and all the thief is interested in is to steal, kill and destroy. Well – if Jesus talked about him – this thief – then maybe it’s worth you and m…

When we hear Jesus promising us an abundant life – which is exactly what He does promise us – it’s easy to think “Yeah, right! Must be for someone else.” But actually … it’s not. It’s a promise for everyone who decides to follow Jesus. Question is – how does it work? How can we have an “abundant life”? As we race through life day after day one of t…

Sometimes – sometimes God decides to do something radically new in our lives – it’s as though He puts a new song in our hearts. So what do you do with that?

Sometimes, when there are good things happening in one part of your life – things start falling apart in another. It’s almost as though when God is birthing something new, there are birth pangs.

Day after day, life can just seem like more of the same. Same old, same old. As a result, so many of people end up feeling trapped by their circumstances. But God … is a God of new beginnings.

Have you ever wondered what it would have been like to have been there on that very first Christmas when Jesus was born into this world? Like … sitting in that field with those shepherds.

Okay so we all know that bit in the Christmas story, where Mary and Joseph discover there’s no room at the Inn. But what was that like, and what does that have to say to you and me today?

Sometimes on the journey of life we find ourselves completely alone. We can even be surrounded by lots of people, and yet still … be alone.

Something (by the way) that I…

The other Sunday, the pastor at my church was talking about dying. He made the point that people’s greatest fear is to die alone. I’d never thought of it that way, but it makes a lot of sense.

I don't know if you’ve ever thought of this, but on the surface of things, Christmas is a crazy idea!

Yeah, absolutely, on the surface of things, Christmas is a crazy idea. I mean stand back and think abou…

One of the problems that many people have is reconciling the supposed wonder and joy of Christmas, with the humdrum realities of their lives. How … how do you do that?

Well, at some point in our lives, eventually, we come to the realisation that the idea, the promise of overnight success that the world’s been dangling under our noses is an empty promise.

When you think about it, pride and impatience are two sides of the one coin. Maybe that’s why so many people are in such a hurry to become an overnight success.

As a theoretical concept, we all believe in character–building. It’s a good idea. It’s a good thing. Sure! But as a practical exercise, character building, almost always hurts.

I don't know how you imagine your life will turn out, whether you’ll achieve your life’s purpose or not, but often times, and you see this very much of people in the Bible, God puts dreams in their hearts, He puts a call on their lives, but they don’t get to see end game. That, to some, can be somewhat disconcerting. If we approach life on the basi…

The thing about the dreams that God puts on our hearts is that their execution is much, much, much more difficult than their conception.

Dreams, ideas, hopes, pl…

It’s one thing to have a dream in our heart. It’s one thing to have a sense of God’s calling on our lives. But if we truly believe that God is calling us to something, then at some point, we need to stop dreaming and start doing. And that, let me tell you, is one of the most difficult times of all. In my experience having a dream to do something, t…

God’s wisdom as it turns out … well on the one hand, when we’re sitting there all wrapped up in our selfish desires, God’s wisdom seems pretty counterintuitive.
