In this message, presented in February 2023 at Jubilee Church in Sydney Australia, Chad walks the congregation through an overview of Old Testament history, with a special focus on the developing theme of ‘God’s Bride’. This powerful metaphor, describing God’s special relationship with His covenant community, comes to the fore particularly strong in the Old Testament Prophets, at a time when Israel was divided into two kingdoms, and then climaxes in the New Testament Scriptures with the arrival of the new-covenant Bride of Christ!

Today’s special release podcast offers an exclusive look into the first lesson of Chad’s soon-to-be-released Video Mentoring Program for his multi-award-winning book ‘You Can Handle the Truth: Making Sense of the Bible in 3 Simple Steps’. In this session, Chad examines the 3 Main 'Toolkits' God has provided in order to correctly handle His Word, as well as unpacking the 3-Step Process to healthy hermeneutics as demonstrated in Nehemiah Chapter 8. Key texts include 2 Timothy 2:1–7; 2 Timothy 3:10–4:5; Nehemiah 8:5–12.

In this brief excerpt from the Mansbridge family’s Farewell Service to Bayside Church, Chad takes us to Acts Chapter 20, where we find Paul’s famous ‘farewell address’ to the Ephesian elders—a speech which, in many ways, reflects those given by Old Testament leaders such as Moses, Joshua, Samuel, King David and Jesus. Drawing on highlights from each of these biblical examples, Chad offers the congregation a sincere and heart-felt farewell of his own as his time of serving as Bayside’s lead pastor comes to a close after 20 years. Key texts include Acts 20:17–38; Deut. 31:8; Josh. 24:14–15; 1 Sam. 12:23; 1 Kings 2:2; 1 Chron. 29:17–18; John 13:34–35; Acts 20:28.

Recorded live at their Sunday Service on May 15, 2022, in this ‘once-in-20-year message’ Chad sits down to explain how his season of serving as Bayside’s lead pastor is drawing to an end, as he and Jaye sense the Father leading them to relocate interstate for the next phase of their life and ministry journey. A somewhat tender, yet profoundly prophetic moment, in this message you’ll hear details on the process of Chad and Jaye’s journey thus far, and of God’s plans for Bayside’s future moving forward.

A Presbyterian and a Pentecostal walk into a podcast ... well, kinda. Recently, Chad had the privilege of being interviewed for his new book 'You Can Handle the Truth', by US-based podcaster Mike Moffitt of Bible Jazz. The rest, as they say, is podcast history. Enjoy.

On this special podcast announcement, Chad pops in to the studio to provide an update on the production of his newest book: 'You Can Handle the Truth', due for release in late-August.
