    Making a Difference - Pastor Seth Bland

    Title: Making a Difference: Compassion, Warning and Those Who Stumble Summary: “It’s not gossip if it’s true.” That excuse gets a hard look in this episode. It asks how to treat someone who has stumbled, whether they are a stranger or sitting in the next seat at church. Starting in the letter of Jude, it explains what making a difference really meant to the King James translators. It was never about changing someone’s life. It meant telling two situations apart, because some people need compassion and others need a clear warning before it is too late. Two ditches sit either side of the road. One is condemnation, fed by gossip and whispered news, even when every word is accurate. The other is indifference, which means staying quiet to avoid an awkward conversation while someone walks towards the edge. The story of Judah’s captives in 2 Chronicles 28 shows both answers at work. A prophet named Oded warns a victorious army, and four named soldiers clothe, feed and carry the defeated home to Jericho. It closes with two men called Ananias in the book of Acts. One greets a feared persecutor as Brother Saul. The other hears the plain truth from Peter, who leaves the judgement to God. The aim is always to restore people gently, a thread that also runs through Forgiveness and Restoration. Key Points: In Jude 22, making a difference means telling people’s situations apart, not changing their lives. Some need compassion, others need a clear warning. Gossip is not excused by being true. Proverbs calls spreading what should stay covered talebearing, and Romans 1 lists whisperers among serious wrongs. Condemnation, whether from others or from ourselves, pushes people into a ditch. The answer is mercy. Indifference can pass for kindness, but staying silent while someone heads for danger protects us, not them. In 2 Chronicles 28, Oded warned the army while four soldiers cared for the captives. People do not have to be blameless to deserve compassion. Jesus named a woman’s many sins and declared them forgiven in the same breath, which is the balance to aim for. Ananias called Saul brother before he had proved anything. Peter simply stated the truth to the other Ananias and left judgement to God. Galatians 6:1 sums it up: restore people gently, and keep an eye on yourself while you do. Reference Scriptures: 1 John 1:8 Jude 1:20-23 Proverbs 11:13 Proverbs 17:9 Romans 1:29-30 Jude 1:22-23 2 Chronicles 28:1-6 2 Chronicles 28:8-15 Acts 9:13-15 Acts 9:17 Acts 5:1-5 Galatians 6:1-2 Related Episodes: Forgiveness and Restoration: also turns to Galatians 6:1-2 and draws the line between conviction and condemnation when someone needs restoring. Contending for the Faith: works through the same closing section of Jude and takes aim at the apathy this episode calls indifference. The Friendship That Never Lets Go: shares Proverbs 11:13 and covers the damage gossip and whispering do to trust.

    Certainty in an Uncertain World - Pastor Darryl Williams

    Title: Certainty in an Uncertain World: What the Bible Says Is Fixed Summary: "We might not be in control, but God is." That line sits at the centre of this episode, which goes looking for certainty in an uncertain world. It opens where Luke opens, writing so that his reader might know the certainty of what he had been taught, and then names the things unsettling people now: conflicts that flare up, pause and flare again, the mortgage, the job, health, and the fridge and the washing machine giving out in the same weekend. From there it works through what the Bible presents as fixed. God's word comes first, described as established and trustworthy rather than one more opinion among the billion results a search returns. Then comes first-hand experience. A candid account from Melbourne in 1969 describes turning up argumentative and sceptical, treating baptism as an experiment, and speaking in tongues anyway, then asking God for further proof a couple of days later and getting it. The closing stretch is about hope as an anchor that holds, the assurance that God knows who belongs to him, and the confidence that what has been entrusted to him is safe, ground also covered from another angle in Luke and Theophilus. Key Points: Luke wrote his account so his reader could be certain of what he had been taught, not merely informed about it. The world offers endless competing opinions, while God's word is described as fixed, established and trustworthy, which makes it something to build on. Study in 2 Timothy is closer to giving your walk with God a red hot go than swotting for an exam. Repentance, baptism by immersion and receiving the Holy Spirit follow the pattern of the death, burial and resurrection, and there is no substitute pathway. A first-hand account of 1969 describes a sceptic who treated baptism as an experiment and spoke in tongues on the spot, then asked for further proof and received it. Hope is described as an anchor for the soul, something that cannot slip or break under whoever steps out on it. When the Lord returns, problems are not solved one at a time but settled all at once, so present trouble is not evidence that the promise has failed. The aim is confidence rather than condemnation, since doubts and misgivings are treated as normal and the Bible keeps reassuring rather than accusing. Reference Scriptures: Luke 1:1-4 Psalm 111:7-8 2 Peter 1:19 Psalm 19:7 2 Timothy 2:15 John 3:5 Romans 8:9 2 Timothy 2:19 Hebrews 6:18-20 Proverbs 11 2 Timothy 1:12 Colossians 2:1-2 excerpt Hebrews 10:22 Related Episodes: Luke and Theophilus, which opens on the same passage in Luke and works through the same gap between believing and being sure. The Sure Mercies of David, which shares the Hebrews 6 anchor passage and unpacks what "sure" actually means: a foundation that cannot be moved.

    Being Fair - Pastor Steve Murphy

    Title: Being Fair: What It Looks Like, How It Works, and Whether It Is Worth ItSpeaker: Pastor Steve MurphyDate: 28th June 2026Location: Medway, England Summary: "Fairness can have teeth." Being fair sounds soft until you watch it hold its ground. This episode starts in Psalm 99, where God is described as one who establishes equity, and asks three plain questions: what does fair look like, how does it work, and is it worth it? Most of the answer arrives through stories. A widow selling the family home after more than forty years is offered £20,000 less the night before she moves out, and she says no. A goalkeeper in a penalty shootout takes away the opposing keeper's notes, wins, and then explains himself honestly. Written law cannot cover every circumstance, which is why courts have always leaned on fair minded people rather than on the letter alone. Then it turns inward. Ecclesiastes points out that no one is consistently just, so expecting perfect fairness from a world that includes you is a poor bet. Paul tells Timothy the aim of the commandment is love from a pure heart, a good conscience and honest faith, and warns that some were never aiming at it. Exodus finishes the thought with manna: given daily, enough for everyone, and useless once hoarded. Key Points: Psalm 99 holds two things together that are often set against each other: God forgives, and God still deals with what we get up to. Neither cancels the other. Equity is fairness applied to circumstances, which is why written law on its own cannot deliver it. A camera cannot tell the difference between someone doing wrong and someone pulling over for an ambulance. Being fair is not the same as being easy to push around. A woman who refused a last minute price cut on her house was not being unfair. Expecting perfect fairness from other people is unrealistic, partly because Ecclesiastes says nobody is consistently just, and that includes you. The aim of the commandment is love from a pure heart, a good conscience and honest faith. The failure described is not missing the target but never aiming at it in the first place. Some good things take you part of the way and cannot take you all the way home. Acknowledge what they do well without asking them to do everything. Circumstances are never handed out evenly, but responsibility is the equaliser: more given means more required. Manna was provided daily and measured out so that nobody had too much or too little, but it still had to be gathered and used that day. Reference Scriptures: Psalm 99:4-8 Ecclesiastes 7:19-22 1 Timothy 1:3-6 Exodus 16:12-18 Exodus 16:20-21 Listen to the entire Podcast Revival library by visiting https://podcastrevival.com  The Revival Fellowship is a Bible-directed, Spirit-filled Church and we welcome visitors to our meetings at any of our locations worldwide.

    Help My Unbelief - Grant Hugo

    Title: Help My UnbeliefSpeaker: Grant HugoDate: 9th August 2026Location: Adelaide, Australia Summary "There's a big difference between some unbelief and not believing." That line sits at the centre of this episode, which looks closely at a father in Mark 9 who brings his son to Jesus and cries out, Lord, I believe, help my unbelief. The episode starts by setting two kinds of unbelief side by side. In Matthew 13, the people of Jesus' home town write him off as the carpenter's son, and few miracles happen there. The father in Mark 9 is different. He knows Jesus is the answer; he just cannot quite hold on to it. From there the focus turns to tone. Words on a page carry no facial expression, so when Jesus says O faithless generation, is he fed up, or urging his followers to remember what they have already seen? Along the way comes a simple distinction worth keeping: faith is a noun, but believing is something you do. The woman who touched the hem of Jesus' garment and two blind men who were healed show belief in action, and the episode finishes with Thomas, who flatly said he would not believe. The closing thought is encouraging: help my unbelief is not an accusation but an invitation to remember what God has already done, a theme also explored in Luke and Theophilus. Key Points Struggling to believe is not the same as refusing to believe. The father in Mark 9 wanted to trust Jesus, while Thomas said outright that he would not believe without proof. The people of Jesus' home town saw him as nothing more than the local carpenter, and their lack of respect limited what happened there. Tone matters when reading the Bible. O faithless generation can sound like frustration, but it may be closer to a reminder of everything Jesus had already shown and given. Translations shape how a moment lands. The King James says Jesus was moved with compassion toward the leper, while some modern versions describe him as indignant or angry. The disciples had already been given power to heal and cast out evil spirits, yet this time they could not. That is a reminder that everyone has moments of unbelief. Faith is a noun and believing is a verb. Faith makes believing possible, and believing is something you actively do through prayer, reading and encouraging one another. Answers to prayer do not follow a neat formula. Some of the biggest breakthroughs come after what feel like the weakest prayers. Help my unbelief is not a charge laid against anyone. It is an invitation to stop, remember what God has already done, and keep seeking him. Reference Scriptures Mark 9:24 Matthew 13:53-58 Mark 8:27 Mark 9:1-13 Mark 9:14-19 Mark 1:40-42 Mark 9:20-27 Luke 9:1-2 Luke 9:40-41 Luke 10:17-20 Mark 16:15-17 Matthew 21:22 Matthew 9:20-22 Matthew 9:26-30 2 Timothy 1:12 Ephesians 1:6-14 Psalm 37:5 Proverbs 16:3 John 20:24-31 Listen to the entire Podcast Revival library by visiting https://podcastrevival.com  The Revival Fellowship is a Bible-directed, Spirit-filled Church and we welcome visitors to our meetings at any of our locations worldwide.

    Things Learned But Not Yet Mastered - Sam Pearce

    Title: Things Learned But Not Yet MasteredSpeaker: Sam PearceDate: 13th September 2026Location: Adelaide, Australia Summary Some lessons take years to learn, and you can still be a long way from mastering them. This episode works through three things learned but not mastered: what hospitality actually asks of us, why Jesus dealt with sin before sickness, and how to handle change in a church you love. Hospitality is pulled away from the image of a grand dinner party and put somewhere plainer: noticing a need and doing something practical about it. The example given is a woman with very little to spare who had already put her own money towards medical care for someone she knew and was out looking for a tent for a person with nowhere to sleep. From there the talk turns to Luke 5, where a man is lowered through a roof to be healed and is forgiven first, which raises an uncomfortable question about whether our urgent list and God's are the same list. The closing section is about change, and it is the most personal. Daniel is told that God changes the times and the seasons. Isaiah 43 tells a people defined by one great miracle not to live only in it, because God intends to do a new thing. And a church, it turns out, is more cruise ship than speedboat. Key Points Hospitality is less about hosting something impressive and more about spotting a need and doing something practical about it. Carrying each other's burdens is presented as basic to Christian life, not an optional extra for people with spare time. The Good Samaritan is held up as the model: unglamorous help, done quietly, usually seen by nobody but the person receiving it. A real example makes it concrete, of someone with little to spare paying towards another person's care and then hunting for a tent for someone with nowhere to sleep. In Luke 5 the forgiveness comes before the healing, which suggests our sense of what is urgent and God's may not line up. For anyone unsettled by change, Daniel is given the reassurance that God is the one who changes times and seasons and sets up and removes kings. Isaiah 43 warns a people against living only in a past miracle, because a new thing is being promised ahead of them. A church behaves more like a cruise ship than a speedboat: slow to turn, but stable and able to carry everyone. If you want the direction changed, go to the wheelhouse rather than shouting from the top deck.

    The Tower of Babel - Pastor John Van De Giessen

    Title: The Tower of BabelSpeaker: Pastor John Van De GiessenDate: 16th August 2026Location: Adelaide, Australia Summary "Sometimes the problem isn't what you're building. The problem is the foundation you're building it on." The Tower of Babel is one of those Old Testament accounts that is easy to skim past, so this episode slows down and looks at what actually happened on the plain of Shinar. A group of people with one language, real skill and genuine unity set out to build a city and a tower. They made bricks from clay and used natural tar for mortar, and the engineering was remarkable for the time. The problem was never their ability. It was their intent, because they wanted to make a name for themselves. From there the focus shifts closer to home. Life fills up fast with study, work, a mortgage and family, and it becomes easy to keep putting God off until things settle down. The caution is direct: the greatest tragedy is not building something that collapses, but building something that succeeds and discovering at the end that God was never in it. The episode closes by setting Babel beside Pentecost. At Babel people built upward and were scattered. At Pentecost God came down, filled people with the Holy Spirit and gathered the nations back together. Key Points One language and real engineering skill gave the people on the plain of Shinar genuine unity, but that unity was pointed away from God's purpose. The tower was never really about height. It was about making a name for themselves, and the intent behind it is what God responded to. What you are building matters less than the foundation you are building it on. Busyness will always find you. Study, career, a house and a family can quietly become reasons to postpone God indefinitely. The greatest tragedy is not a project that collapses, but one that succeeds while God was never part of it. Checking in on one another is the brick and mortar of a church, and nobody needs to wait for someone in leadership to make the call or the visit. Babel and Pentecost mirror each other: people build upward and are scattered, God comes down and gathers the nations together. Anything built without God ends up a monument to itself rather than a testimony to him.

    Seeing Things That Are Invisible - Pastor David Kschammer

    Title: Seeing Things That Are InvisibleSpeaker: Pastor David KschammerDate: 21st June 2026Location: Adelaide, Australia Summary: "How can you take your eyes off something that you can't see?" That question opens an episode built around a single line in 2 Corinthians 4: we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. Seeing things that are invisible sounds like a contradiction, and the episode sets out to show why it isn't. Much of the ground covered here is ordinary. People say seeing is believing, then trust a great deal they have never laid eyes on. Scientists depend on instruments, calibration and mathematics rather than direct sight. Atoms were accepted long before anyone could observe one. Thoughts, love, patience and, as the episode wryly points out, stupidity are all invisible and all plainly real, known by their effects rather than their appearance. From there it turns to Hebrews 11 and Moses, who endured as seeing him who is invisible, and to Elisha at Dothan, surrounded by an enemy army yet completely calm because he was certain of horses and chariots of fire he may never have seen himself. The closing point is a practical one. Faith here is not blind. It is persuasion built on evidence: answered prayer, changed lives and what God has already shown. Key Points: Looking at what cannot be seen is not a contradiction. The claim is that the unseen things are the lasting ones, and the visible ones are temporary. Seeing is often about perception rather than eyesight. When someone says they do not see it your way, they are describing a different starting point, not different eyes. Everyone already believes things they have never observed. Scientific work depends on trusting instruments, calibration and mathematics, and atoms were accepted long before anyone could look at one. Invisible things are known by their effects, the way the wind is known by what it moves. Thoughts, love, patience and their opposites are all real without being visible. Moses left Egypt without fear because he endured as seeing him who is invisible, and he was able to persuade others of something he alone could see. Elisha at Dothan was calm in front of an enemy army because he was sure of the protection around him, and he prayed for his servant's eyes to be opened rather than for a bigger army. The protection that surrounded Elisha is described in the New Testament as being inside the believer instead. Faith here is persuasion, not guesswork. Jesus invited people to examine the works if they would not accept the words, and one day the seeing will not require faith at all. Reference Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 4:18 Mark 16:16 Hebrews 11:1 Hebrews 11:3 Hebrews 11:13 Hebrews 11:24-27 Deuteronomy 18:18 Exodus 14:13 2 Corinthians 5:7 John 3:8 Romans 1:20 Galatians 5:22-23 2 Kings 6:8-17 1 John 3:24 1 John 4:4-6 1 John 4:13-14 1 John 5:19-20 Romans 8:16 2 Corinthians 5:1 2 Timothy 1:12 2 Timothy 1:14 Mark 16:15-20 Revelation 1:7 John 6:63 John 10:37-38 Listen to the entire Podcast Revival library by visiting https://podcastrevival.com  The Revival Fellowship is a Bible-directed, Spirit-filled Church and we welcome visitors to our meetings at any of our locations worldwide.

    Comfortably Numb - Pastor Ben Smith

    Title: Comfortably Numb: Waking Up from Lukewarm ChristianitySpeaker: Pastor Ben SmithDate: 14th January 2026Location: Vancouver, Canada Summary "We don't want to be a people who are comfortably numb." A Pink Floyd lyric turns up in an unlikely place here, and it lands. The subject is lukewarm Christianity, approached through two passages: Jesus warning that love would grow cold as lawlessness increased, and his blunt verdict on the church at Laodicea, a fellowship so comfortable it had decided it was doing just fine. The name Laodicea means power of the people, and that is offered as the clue to what went wrong. A group can end up led by the mood of the room rather than by God's word and still feel entirely settled about it. The answer sits in the next verse: the one who endures to the end will be saved. Endurance does not earn salvation, but it is what faithfulness looks like stretched over years, and it is thin on the ground in a throwaway culture where marriages and commitments get dropped faster than they get repaired. Hebrews adds the practical edge: give earnest heed, so that what you have heard does not quietly slip away. That turns into a question worth asking often. Am I more zealous than I used to be, or less? Zeal and repentance are where revival has always started, ground also covered in Enduring to the end. Key Points Jesus listed increasing lawlessness and love growing cold among the signs that would mark the time before his return. The church at Laodicea was judged lukewarm, and comfort was the likely cause. A settled socioeconomic climate led them to conclude they were fine when they were not. Laodicea means power of the people, a fellowship steered by the general mood rather than by God's word. Endurance does not earn salvation. If it did, salvation could be worked for. Endurance is what faithfulness looks like over the long haul. Commitment is getting harder in a throwaway culture, and people walk away from marriages and fellowships rather than resolve what needs resolving. The warnings against slackening off were written into the early letters, which suggests the concern was live even then. Letting things slip is discouraging well beyond the person it happens to, and holding steady has the opposite effect. Repentance and zeal are the conditions revival has always come out of, and comfort is what dulls both.
