    Thrive Perspectives: The End Times

    Given the current state of affairs in the world, it's hard to avoid the conclusion that the Lord may be returning soon. We are surrounded by events and developments that could be interpreted as signs of the end. Across the world we see famines, earthquakes, disasters, troubles, persecutions, wars and rumors of wars as Jesus said himself in Mark 13. But has there ever been a period in the history of the world when this was not the case? Certainly the early 21st century has no monopoly on death, disaster, devastation, and terror. You don’t need to know a great deal about history to realize this. The Bible clearly instructs us to be vigilant. However, constantly looking for signs of Jesus' return can often lead to speculation and distraction. So as a Christian, how should we respond to what we see happening in the world, and what should be our focus, even if in fact these are the ‘end times?

    Thrive Perspectives: The Cost of Discipleship

    In this episode, we explore what it truly means to be a disciple in today's world. From the sacrifices and trials to the immense rewards and spiritual growth, we discuss the real-life implications of living out our faith. This episode challenges us to reflect on the true cost of following Jesus. Matthew 16:24.Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me". What does it look like to 'take up our cross' and 'deny ourselves'?

    Thrive Perspectives: Christian Spirituality

    Christian spirituality is deeply relational: Cultivating a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, who invites us into a transformative journey of faith. This relationship is nurtured through prayer, worship, and the study of Scripture, allowing us to grow closer to God and understand His will for our lives. But how are we going in our relationship with God? How do we experience God? Do you find it difficult to pray? Do you wonder if God even hears you? Do you feel like God is ‘out there somewhere’ but that you don’t really have a ‘relationship’ with Him? You’re not alone. In fact, this is the experience of many who commit to the way of Jesus. What does it really mean to ‘have a relationship’ with God? What are the things that get in the way of cultivating this relationship? In this episode we explore these questions and provide a perspective to encourage you on your lifelong spiritual journey.

    Thrive Perspectives: Politics Pt.1

    The church must set the example of unity, respect, and love. Our witness to the gospel depends on it. Our spiritual enemy knows that if he can divide and distract us with bitter conflict over matters like politics, he can hinder our mission to share the gospel. Conversely, if we demonstrate Christian unity, he knows our testimony will be difficult to refute. Know what you believe and why you believe it. Seek to understand where others are coming from (especially if they don’t agree with you). “Let love be your highest goal!” (1 Corinthians 14:1 NLT) History has shown us that when the church becomes too entangled with political powerit can lead to corruption and the distortion of the gospel message. We must approach political engagement with humility and discernment, always prioritizing our allegiance to Christ above any political ideology. Strive to be a voice for the voiceless, advocate for policies that reflect our values, and approach political engagement with humility and discernment. By doing so, we can contribute to a society that reflects the love and grace of Jesus Christ, ultimately bringing glory to God.

    Thrive Perspectives: Demons and the Demonic Pt.3

    Demons represent the forces of evil that oppose God’s goodness and seek to lead people astray. They are often seen as fallen angels who rebelled against God. The Bible portrays a spectrum of demonic influence, from subtle temptations (footholds that can then become strongholds) to overt possession. Jesus' approach to demons was marked by authority and compassion. He consistently confronted and expelled them, demonstrating His power over evil and His commitment to liberating individuals from spiritual bondage. His interactions emphasized the importance of faith, prayer, and the recognition of God's ultimate authority over all forms of evil. This narrative underscores the Christian belief in the ongoing spiritual battle and the hope of deliverance through Jesus Christ. Therefore put on the full armour of God.
