Distribution Dilemma – Gosia Denham

We can approach our lives thinking that there is a distribution problem in heaven – we see others being blessed with gifts, whilst we are seemingly forgotten. The grass always looks greener on the other side. Perhaps heaven doesn’t have a distribution dilemma, so much as we have a recognition dilemma. Pastor Gosia encourages us to shift our perception to see heaven’s blessing as doors of opportunity rather than neatly packaged gifts.

Advance – Simon Taylor

The kingdom of God is forcefully advancing, but if we want to see God’s dream for our lives become reality, it requires a response from us. We need to lay hold of it with force!

Replanted in Eden – Steph Young

Don’t Teach a Fish to Climb Trees – How to not lose your confidence – Dave Gilpin

This message will set you free from your three greatest enemies- condemnation, accusation and perfection.

Unrequited Love – Ps Ali Bianchi

Often we get carried away with our unending needs of life and sometimes unaware of how much we demand and ask from God all the time in our relationship with Him.

We often allow our circumstances to come between us and our relationship with God. But actually, what God wants is intimacy. What God wants is a relationship that is two sided; He just wants us to receive everything He is and give everything we are into the relationship.

In this message Pastor Ali shares with how we can leave all else, and focus on growing in intimacy with God above every need in our lives.
You’ll be so blessed!!

Fabulous Faith – Dave Gilpin

You don’t need breakthrough. You don’t need finance. You don’t need healing. What you need is the key that opens the door to breakthrough. Faith is that solitary key. There is no other key.  It has no feels. It has no emotion. It sees nothing in the natural. Yet it precedes everything. When you get it, it opens doors to things you’ve never experienced ever before in your life. This is about how to get it, how to use it and how to prize it.

If Only You Knew – Ed Newton

We live in a society that is very well-practiced in creating victims.

You don’t need a change in your circumstances, but a change in your stance. Step into victory today.
