  1. Transformed Module Four Session Two

    In this session we go deeper into the meaning of building a first floor and the difference between that and the ground floor. Using Matthew 16 we talk about the difference between finding your life and losing it. This is all in the context of ministry calling as a Christian. Of course if this is...

  2. Transformed Module Four Session One

    In this session we embark upon the final part of the journey, and the most exciting! Yes, we are looking at building our first floor. Having done our planning, built our foundation (on the rock, not the sand), and having built our ground floor, we are now heading into the upper room of our…

  3. Transformed - Module Three - Session Four

    In this session we spend some time connecting the ideas of the spirit with the flesh and the flesh with the spirit. This was done to ensure that the elements of spiritual progress do not become disconnected with earthly problems. If we allow this disconnection then challenges can become…

  4. Transformed- Module Three - Session Three

    In this, the third session in Module Three, we look deeper into what it is that helps us cope well with the reality of 'normal life'. From Matthew 5:37 and let your yes be yes and your no be no, all the way to assessing the equality of our relationships from a perspective of avoiding looking down...

  5. Transformed - Module Three - Session Two

    In this session we continue to support people in coping with normal life responsibilities. Using Matthew 5 and verse 37 we look at the idea of saying and meaning 'yes' and 'no', and how this relates to our attitudes and beliefs as they construct our relationships. We then take a deeper look at…

  6. Transformed - Module Three - Session One

    In this Module we are going to be looking at the 'ground floor'. I call this the floor of normality, which can cause some people difficulties right of the bat. "What is normal anyway"? Whose normal etc. We keep this very simple and talk about things that pretty much everyone would consider part…

  7. Transformed - Module Two - Session Four

    In this final session of Module Two we confirm that we are prepared to build what is seen on what is unseen. Our foundation will not be seen by anyone but you and the Lord! We also explore the idea of identity through Gods creation of family. When we see our identity this way, things become…

  8. Transformed - Module Two - Session Three

    This is the third session of our second Module - Foundation. In this session of live teaching at the message Trust https://maps.app.goo.gl/dS331ujc4KJTTAhq7 We think of rooms as individual relationships, which then produce personal responsibilities. This links to the idea of identity, which a lot...

  9. Transformed - Module Two - Session Two

    We are now in the middle of the second module of four on this course. This one is called the ground floor. I call it the ground floor of 'normality' because it is built on the foundation and it supports the first floor of vision and ministry. In this live teaching session you will learn valuable...

  10. Transformed - Module Two - Session One

    This is the first of the second module live teaching sessions. Following the first module on preparation, the second module will focus on building a solid and stable foundation on which to build our new life.

  11. Transformed - Module One - Session Four

    In this episode of live teaching we look at the question of LOCATION in considering building a new life. When we consider moving house, the question of who you will be moving away from, and who you will be moving closer to, should be considered. Even though our new house will be a metaphor (as…

  12. Transformed - Module One - Session Three

    In this video we approach the idea of preparation from the first of three main questions, namely cost. What are you wanting to achieve as part of your spiritual development? Whatever it is for you personally, the preparation you make will be a huge factor in your results. Spiritual progress is...

    The Transformed Course is for Christians who are struggling to make spiritual progress. It offers a Biblical approach that replaces the medical model.

  15. Interview with Andy Campsall

    Thought you might be interested in my interview with Andy Campsall. Listeners will learn some of my background that led to me doing the work I do and teaching this stuff. Thanks again for taking the time.

  16. Transcendence - being an overcomer

    In this episode we take the idea of transcendence and open up what it means, how it relates to the idea of overcoming that we get from the Bible, and what it might mean for your progress, development and recovery. The Bible says that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord is an overcomer, but...

  17. Rights and Responsibilities

    Following a trip to the William Wilberforce Museum I wanted to discuss the idea of rights and responsibiities from a Christian perspective. I'm including the subject of slavery as well as some of the consequences of getting this balance wrong. This is not the final word on this subject, but maybe…

    In this episode we take a look at where and when personal responsibility should take place over deendency on God. Jesus is our Lord and Saviour. He's both, not just one or the other.

  20. The process of salvation

    One of the more common mistakes I see in Christians of all levels of experience is not making a clear enough distinction between salvation as an event and transformation as a process. In my work I have a saying "God does the healing and we do the recovery". In this episode you will hear how these...

  21. Trial or Temptation?

    What is your expectation of life? When so many modern messages are telling you that you should be having a care free, exciting life without any problems, it's understandable that you may be disappointed with your life and what you can achieve. In this episode we take a look at what the Bible says...
