| 28 Mar 2022 | Did The Father Turn His Face Away? | 00:38:42 | |
We sing this line in a classic worship song that many of us would know, that the Father turned his face away, but is it true? Did God the Father turn his face away, did some form of disconnection take place while Christ was on the cross quoting Psalm 22? This question permeates many important areas of theology including the trinity - the way the God head functions, atonement & Gods character. So this question deserves our attention and should be explored in order that we land where the Bible does on it. Like what you heard?

| 21 Apr 2022 | Politics & Faith with Wendy Francis from ACL | 00:48:51 | |
When I say politics there will be some of us that run for the hills, others that activate and join the fight and then some that want to stay neutral and invest the bare minimum. Regardless where you are at, PLEASE listen to this episode. Wendy from ACL gives you and I some incredible insight to the effectiveness of ACL and how your voice, participation and most importantly VOTE makes a difference in Australian Politics. We discuss everything from the need for Church & State to collide, the impact of lobbying, the parental rights bill (ALL PARENTS BE AWARE!!!!) along with this upcoming federal election and how to actually vote - as in, the process and how the ballot forms work. I can confidently say, Wendy has helped me wrap my head around Australian politics and taken away the confusion and also overwhelming hopelessness I sometimes felt around politics. Now I feel confident on how to approach this federal election and I feel empowered to vote below the line and really do my research on who gets my vote. This isn’t scary, my voice counts, and that means YOUR voice counts as well. Please share this episode with your friends & family. Every little bit of love helps!

| 27 May 2022 | Hidden Sin - A Solution for the Church on Porn, Infidelity & Sexual Brokeness | 01:02:18 | |
According to research overseas 70% of men within the church engage in watching porn regularly and over 50% pastors also struggle. It goes even higher to 76% when its men under the age of 25. But women aren’t void of this either, there is a silent battle going on for women as well. 87% of christian women have seen porn and of that under the age of 30, 33% watch porn monthly. Keep in mind that 40% of viewers worldwide are women. The devastating side effect of that is that 94% of our children will see porn before the age of 14 with the average age of introduction at 8. Porn & Sexual addiction is a pervasive and destructive hidden sin that is happening within the Church and we must start addressing it. So it begs the question, why is it not discussed regularly and why is the Church so ill equipped to handle it? In this episode, we address the why and more importantly the HOPE that is available to us all. Bernard runs a ministry throughout Australia and NZ that helps equip churches and sees individuals set on a path of freedom and restoration from this often overlooked and guilt ridden, shame-filled battle that so many are in. We discuss everything from why it's a growing issue, how to find support, how leaders can create change, how you can support others (including what not to do!!!!) and what the journey of restoration looks like. Whether this a journey you are on yourself, know someone who is or potentially just blissfully unaware, then this episode is for you. Let us grow in understanding and grace so that we can work towards wholeness and redemption from the waging war that is silently sweeping our church and devastating lives.

| 12 Mar 2023 | Sin of Omission | 00:42:32 | |
We give a lot of attention, rightly so, to the sins we have committed both intentionally and unintentionally. But do you ever give thought to the sin of omission, the sin committed purely by NOT taking action? Not sure what we are talking about? Think about the moments where you have ignored the call to do good work, God's work. James 4:17 reads, If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them. We need to be paying just as much attention to those moments when we don’t do what we ought to do. Repenting, with a heart to change and grow. I first heard Jacinda speak about this in 2022 and decided to have her on to help us unpack it a little further.. We discuss what this looks like in the day to day, what scripture has to say about it, how it impacts our faith, along with some practical steps (cue the 5 P’s!) on how to help us grow in this area. Promise you, you will greatly benefit from hearing this one. I have seen great change in my own life from it, I have no doubt you will as well. Like what you heard?

| 03 Sep 2020 | Forgiveness & Deep Wounds | Part One | 00:43:47 | |
We are mega excited to be releasing a 2 part series on forgiveness. Part 1 will look at the deeper wounds, the wounds that we carry around with us for years. Part 2 will look at the day to day stuff. Forgiveness is HARD. But just because something is hard does not mean that we avoid it. In fact, it should actually make us work harder at it. In this episode, we chat about how to practically move forward with the deeper wounds we carry. And not just move forward carrying them, but actually start to unpack them and move toward forgiveness. This will be hard for a lot of us to hear as it may bring up past trauma or issues that you may be trying to deal with. But that is all the more reason to listen! Come as you are.

| 11 Sep 2020 | Forgiveness Day to Day | Part Two | 00:45:30 | |
This is our second and final episode in our forgiveness mini series. In this episode we chat through the practicalities of everyday forgiveness and mull over Scripture that explicitly commands this type of living. This is something that all Christians could be working on. We hope you feel encouraged, yet challenged - we certainly are!
Matthew 18:21-35 New International Version (NIV) The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant 21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” 22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.[a] 23 “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. 24 As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand bags of gold[b] was brought to him. 25 Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt. 26 “At this the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’ 27 The servant’s master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go. 28 “But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred silver coins. He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he demanded. 29 “His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it back.’ 30 “But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. 31 When the other servants saw what had happened, they were outraged and went and told their master everything that had happened. 32 “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33 Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ 34 In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. 35 “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”

| 22 Oct 2020 | Bad Theology Hurts People | Part One | 00:52:48 | |
This episode is dedicated to Greg Peisley, the late Senior Pastor of Pitt Town Anglican Community Church. He went home to be with Jesus on the 14th of September 2020, at 59 years of age, after a 14 month battle with brain cancer. He was a trustworthy handler of the Bible who cared deeply about the souls of his flock and therefore about sound doctrine. In Paul’s writing throughout the Epistles, he encourages his readers to be trustworthy recipients of the truth of the Word of God and then to go on entrusting this Word, the Bible, to others. As someone who has been privileged to sit under a pastor (for pretty well all of my life), who cared deeply about teaching biblical truth, I have grown in my understanding of just how important this is. I wanted to encourage you all to be avid readers of God’s Word and to CARE DEEPLY about the things you read in His Word, building up your skills in spiritual discernment so that you are able to recognise Satan’s subtle (or not so subtle) pulls for your attention.

| 30 Oct 2020 | Bad Theology Hurts People | Part Two | 00:49:10 | |
In our previous episode on this topic, we explored the various ways experience, reasoning, & tradition/religion impact the way we read the word. In this episode Cass more looks into the WHY/HOW & WHAT NEXT to sorting out the bad theology to the good. Why is ‘bad theology hurtful?’ Ultimately, it damages our view of God & our relationship with him. Cass gets personal, sharing three main theological views she took on and how God, through time, community, and most importantly Scripture, has pulled her out of those damaging beliefs. Leading you through Matthew 7 you will see Jesus warning on false teachers and the subtle errors out there and how to practically discern what is good and true and how to move forward in pursuing solid teaching. A lifelong journey for sure, but always a good check-in! Like what you heard?

| 12 Nov 2020 | Social Seduction | 00:32:50 | |
Ladies! You may have seen the recently released documentary on Netflix called ‘The Social Dilemma’. If you haven’t, give it a watch BEFORE you listen to this episode. We have found it immensely helpful in unpacking the impacts social media is having on our psychology and on our actual behaviour (both online and offline)! Whilst there is TONNES of useful and important information in the documentary, we wanted to also address the usage of social media from a Christian perspective. This episode gets to the heart of the issue and then gives 10 practical tips on how to ensure social media isn’t: Issues brought up but not quite labelled:
Are we letting our minds being held captive to the world/others/social? 2 Corinthians 10:5 So what are we doing when we are allowing our minds to be held captive to a social media machine? How do we make it obedient to Christ rather than entertaining lies that we have believed and FEEDING those lies? FALSE HUMILITY & VIRTUE SIGNALLING - we are called to be boasting in our weakness so that the Glory of God may prevail. False Humility - 1 Corinthians 6 Body is a temple. What are we portraying? Modest? FAKE YOU - one way or another Matthew 12:36 1 Peter 2: 9 Practical Tips:

| 25 Nov 2020 | Jesus Sleighs Santa | 00:38:16 | |
Why celebrate Christmas? Should we celebrate Christmas? But isn’t Christmas pagan? I mean, Santa... come on?! In this episode, we discuss all things Christmas, the claims and divisions, history and present and of course the Jesus vs Santa debate. Led by a joyful joyful jingle bell (Kirst) and a historic and self proclaimed Grinch (Cass), you will hear ultimately what it’s all about and how it can practically play out. Plus maybe hear some poorly sung Christmas renditions along the way 😆 https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/scotty-smith/day-reason-jesus-born/ https://www.biblicalfoundations.org/was-jesus-born-on-december-25-with-c-l-quarles/ So where does this leave Christians with celebrating Christmas?.......

| 29 Dec 2020 | Ditch Your NY Resolutions! | 00:34:48 | |
Wether or not you're someone who loves a list or even a set of goals, New Years Resolutions seem to have a pull with everyone! In this episode we have a look at some biblical goals that Paul describes in his letter to the Philippians (in chapter 3). Paul's goals got us thinking about how easy it is for us to focus our attention, our giftings, our money - on WORLDLY goals... after all, that's what everyone else is doing, right? Paul's words in this letter are a real rebuke and challenge to modern day worldly thinking and a challenge to where our citizenship, as Christian women, really is: here or in heaven. Perfect timing as we begin a whole new year...
How does they way you spend your time, your talents (your gifts) and treasure (your $$) communicate about what your goals are in life?

| 09 Jun 2021 | 7 Deadly Sins: Pride | 00:30:51 | |
Pride is something that we ALL struggle with. At the heart of pride is us wanting to build up our own kingdom, rather than building God's Kingdom. In this episode, Kirst unpacks Luke 18:9-14, where Jesus tells the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector and how they understood their sin before God. It is a truly humbling passage. Kirst also shares a true story of pride and humility, landing us thinking through where pride can take us (away from Jesus!) and where humility can take us (nearer to Jesus!). Like what you heard?

| 23 Jun 2021 | 7 Deadly Sins: That’s a wrap! | 00:42:01 | |
Well if you're like us, you would have been incredibly challenged by what the Bible has to say on greed, gluttony, slothfulness, pride, anger, envy and lust. This has been a big series and so we have come to the end and realised we missed a few key points for some of the sins plus we thought we'd review what we learnt and spend some time thinking about how to realistically apply killing off these sins in our lives and how to encourage others to do the same! Thank the Lord for His Spirit, who helps us become more in step with what He wants and less with what we want. Enjoy! Like what you heard?

This episode is a raw and honest conversation between Cass and Kirst about TRUTH. In this episode we chat about how postmodernism has let us down BIG TIME! Praise Jesus for BEING The Actual and ABSOLUTE Truth! There is such a thing as absolute truth... ! Join us as we chat about fighting for Truth in a world that doesn't even believe in the real meaning of the word truth. Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 8:32 ESV And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 16:13 ESV When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.

Tune in to find out what God has been doing in her life recently and the next steps as she focuses on family and ministry within the Church. It's never fun saying goodbye to a good thing but I'm sure we can all look back and reflect on what an incredibly fun & encouraging impact Kirst has made on us all! God has used her powerfully to help bring truth and I have no doubt he will continue to do so in her personal life. Like what you heard?

| 20 Jan 2022 | Fear & Loathing In The Church - A Couch Divided & Her Theology | 01:19:17 | |
A Couch Divided is an American podcast where psychology meets a christian worldview. In this episode we get together and discuss what it looks like contending for the faith, unity & truth in a world that is strongly fueled by fear messaging, changing narratives & government policies that are impacting our lives, quite often, for the worst. Some of the topics we cover include;
It's vital we open up the space for robust conversations that share differing views. We are aware that many may not agree with all the views presented in this episode, but I implore you to listen and weigh up the thoughts. We must know what we believe and understand both sides to be confident in our views. The beauty of the church is that we can hold different opinions on the open handed things but still stand united through Christ & agree on the important stuff, that Christ died & rose again, we are redeemed & slowly being transformed into His image for the days set before us in Eternity - partying as one big family! May we all continue to look upwards through such unsettling times and fight to stand shoulder to shoulder for the Glory of God. Like what you heard?

| 01 Feb 2022 | Part One: Same Sex Attraction | 00:48:39 | |
In part one of our series on same sex attraction, we hear Traceys testimony. How she was brought up, coming to terms with her attraction to girls, her views on the church & then how she came to know Jesus. Not only is it encouraging to her about her journey, but there are some really powerful lessons for us to gain as we hear how her church rallied around her and discipled her through this process of coming to know Christ whilst also learning how they addressed the biblical truths that we often are afraid to discuss in relation to sex, marriage & gender.
