David Armstrong teaches on the events of Palm Sunday and the moment Jesus project goes public. In one act of parody he exposes abusive power for what it is; fearful, insecure, oppressive and violent…and simultaneously embodies a very different kind of alternative power of the Kingdom of God… co-suffering love expressed in humility and forgiveness

David, Armstrong, John Herron & Stephanie Wilson discuss the series on fasting and share some of their learning along the way.

In Part 4 Stephanie Wilson shows us the connection between fasting and justice - how this simple practice of giving away the money we would have spent on ourselves has the potential to transform not only the lives of the poor, but also our own lives and communities.

In Part 3 John Herron helps us see the role fasting has in both hearing God and being heard by God. When prayer and fasting link arms, it’s often the tipping point in the struggle to release God’s Kingdom, on earth as it is in heaven.

In Part 2 David Armstrong shares how fasting has many physical benefits for our bodies that mirror how it benefits our souls.

In this first teaching David Armstrong looks at how Fasting is one of the best disciplines we have to reintegrate our mind to our body, and offer our whole selves to God in surrender.

In Part 5 David Armstrong, John Herron & Stephanie Wilson finish the prayer practice series with a Q&A and discussion that includes their experiences of prayer, the purpose of prayer and how we might understand unanswered prayer.

In Prayer part 4 David Armstrong explores the fourth stage of prayer: being with God or what the ancient Christians called “union” with God. To contemplate is to look, to gaze upon the beauty of God, receiving his love pouring out toward you in Christ and by the Spirit, and then giving your love back in return.

In Prayer part 3 John Herron helps us understand that prayer is not just when we talk but when we listen to hear his voice. As Jesus said in John 10v27, “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” This is a Spirit-generated desire in the heart of a disciple of Jesus.

In Prayer part 2 Stephanie Wilson helps us begin to learn how to talk with God using our own words to God — to share what’s on our mind, our heart. Our pain, our joy, our hopes and fears. We can’t help but desire to interact with God in a more authentic, personalised way.

In Prayer part 1 David Armstrong explores the first stage of prayer: talking to God. One of the single most important tasks of discipleship to Jesus is starting, habituating, and fine-tuning a daily prayer rhythm. So we start our four-week journey simply, by praying pre-made prayers, or what some call a liturgy, to God.

David Armstrong finishes our Advent series looking at this season as a divine invitation and divine interruption.
