Episodes

  1. W@W WRAP - Week 50: Connected lives

    God has created us as relational beings. God’s DNA of compassion, care and love are woven into who we are. We long for communion and relationship. Not only with our Lord and Creator, but with one another. Ephesians 4:4-6 (MSG): “You were all called to travel on the same road and in the same...

  2. W@W WRAP - Week 49: Resting in God’s care

    We are often paralysed by anxiety and fear, and by the busyness and the demands of the world. We feel overwhelmed and out of control. What is the root cause of this? Psalm 56:3-4 (NIV): “When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise — in God I trust and am not afraid. What...

  3. W@W WRAP - Week 48: God-first living

    Is it possible for our lives to truly reflect the beauty of the gospel? I believe that this is part of God’s strategy for our lives. Not an easy one… So where do we start? Let’s start by putting our Father God first in everything. Matthew 6:33 (NIV): “But seek first the kingdom of God and His...

  4. W@W WRAP - Week 47: Entre into God’s rest

    Rest comes from total surrender, and trust that our Father God is almighty, sovereign and in control. To be at rest is to be at peace, which produces true happiness in our hearts. It implies that we are content, not worrying or in fear, but KNOWING that our Lord has our backs. Hebrews 4:1...

  5. W@W WRAP - Week 46: Leaving the past behind

    The Bible tells us that our Father God’s plans for us are good! What is holding you back in becoming all He created you to be? Isaiah 43:18-19: “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!”

  6. W@W WRAP - Week 45: Reflecting the Gospel

    It is possible for our lives to glorify our Father God and reflect the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We’ve heard the saying so many times: “You may be the only Bible someone gets to read”. What is needed for us to reflect the Gospel well? Let’s learn from Stephen’s life in Acts 6. Acts 6 (AMP):...

  7. W@W WRAP - Week 44: Choosing life!

    What is hope? Hope implies confidence and assurance, and therefore TRUST. But let’s also look at the opposite of HOPE: Hopelessness, disbelief, despair, discouragement, fear and even hatred. Do you know that we truly do not have to feel any of these negative feelings? That was never our Father...

  8. W@W WRAP - Week 43: Growing through our suffering

    Jesus learned trusting-obedience by what He suffered, just as we do. That means suffering leads to growth. Growth doesn't come from staying in a comfort zone. Growth comes when we learn to persevere during our times of hardship, suffering, sacrifice, or being thrown into deep waters. Perseverance...

  9. W@W WRAP - Week 42: Our loving, kind and caring Lord is near

    In Acts 23 we see that Paul is under persecution. There is an uproar against him, and he is facing death, and being held captive. How amazing is our God? During hardship, persecution, and a bleak situation, our loving Lord shows up to encourage him (Paul), to be with him, and to show him the way...

  10. W@W WRAP - Week 41: What does our Father God ask of us?

    Do you know the desire of our Father God’s heart? Let’s bring glory to Him, worshiping and giving praise with awe-filled reverence and profound respect. He alone is holy. Let's love the Lord our God with all our hearts and souls. Let's submit to God in a way that puts His splendour and supremacy…

    more
  11. W@W WRAP - Week 40: The desire of our hearts

    Do you want to learn more about who our Father God is? Let's explore who our Father God is, by studying His names. Let’s trust in and completely rely upon our Lord, walking in His ways and honouring His NAME as the Name above all names. Isaiah 26:8 (NIV): “Yes, Lord, walking in the way of Your...

  12. W@W WRAP - Week 39: Holy Spirit-inspired living

    Let us be determined to ask our Father God for His life-giving Spirit to be with us and to live within us. Isaiah 11:2 (NIV): “The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him - the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord…”

  13. W@W WRAP - Week 38: Living hope

    Do you truly believe that you have LIFE - life in abundance, life to the full - not because of your own righteousness or good deeds, but because of our Father God’s unconditional LOVE through Jesus? What amazing grace and mercy! We have a HOPE and a wonderful future. 1 Peter 1:3-4 (CSB): “Blessed...

  14. W@W WRAP - Week 37: Doing nothing without Jesus

    Who do you rely on when you are faced with a decision? How often do you try to do things in your own strength? John 8:28 (AMP): "So Jesus said: When you lift up the Son of Man [on the cross], you will know then [without any doubt] that I am He, and that I do nothing on My own authority, but I say...

  15. W@W WRAP - Week 36: Who is in your boat?

    Who is in your boat? Would you invite Jesus on board? Let’s get rid of the fears, worries, doubts and darkness in and around our boats. Let’s invite Jesus on board. Let’s keep our focus on Him and not on the storm around us. Let’s trust Him to steer our lives according to our Father’s will. Let’s...

  16. W@W WRAP - Week 35: Real and eternal life

    Have you taken time to really consider what it means to have abundant life, and full, eternal life? Does this cause you to think differently about your time, your circumstances, your loved ones, and the things of this world you live in? John 10:10b (AMP): “…I came that they may have and enjoy…

    more
  17. W@W WRAP - Week 34: Do you want to get well?

    Do you want to get well? Consider the following: What is driving you? Have you grown complacent? Do you often believe the lies of the enemy? What is paralysing you at the moment? Where is your focus? What is stealing your joy? What is stealing your time away from prioritising God and His word? Do...

  18. W@W WRAP - Week 33: Give praise to the Lord!

    To praise the Lord is to bless Him, to give Him thanks and to exalt Him as Lord of Lords and King of Kings. It implies that we proclaim His name as the Name above all names. It’s to make His name known and to talk about what God has done for us. 1 Chronicles 16:10-11 (AMP): “Glory in His holy…

    more
  19. W@W WRAP - Week 32: Walking in the ways of our Lord

    Do you know God’s will for your life? Do you spend time with our loving Father? Do you spend time in His Word, allowing Him to teach you and direct your ways? Psalm 25:4-5 (AMP): “Let me know Your ways, O Lord; Teach me Your paths. Guide me in Your truth and teach me. For You are the God of my...

  20. W@W WRAP - Week 31: Our place of rest

    Worrying leads to anxiety. Anxiety leads to tension, tension leads to pain, pain leads to fear. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to destruction, destruction leads to death. These are in contradiction to rest. Rest leads to trust, trust leads to favour, favour leads to happiness, happiness leads…

    more
  21. W@W WRAP - Week 30: Living trees

    If I think about a tree, I think about life, fruitfulness, food to eat, strength, durability, shade for rest, and protection. If we compare our lives to that of a tree, what would it take for us to be stand-out trees for God, trees that bear much fruit for the Kingdom? Jeremiah 17:8 (MSG): “But...

  22. W@W WRAP - Week 29: To know our Father God

    What does it mean to know someone? The Merriam Webster dictionary helps us to understand it a little better: "To know someone means to recognize the identity of that person, to be aware of a truth about the person, to have information or knowledge about the person, to be acquainted or familiar…

    more
  23. W@W WRAP - Week 28: Praying to our compassionate, hope-giving Father

    Desperate times call for desperate actions. Where do you turn first, when you hit the bottom of the pit? When it seems everyone is against you? When it seems there is no hope? When you see no easy outcome and it feels like you have nowhere to go? Daniel 9:1 (AMP): O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O...

  24. W@W WRAP - Week 27: Pathways and sign-posts

    Are you aware of God’s directions and instructions (His sign-posts) as you travel along life’s road? Do you seek His will and allow His spirit to teach you every step of the way? Isaiah 26:7-8 (MSG): “… We’re in no hurry, God. We’re content to linger in the path sign-posted with your decisions.…

    more
  25. W@W WRAP - Week 26: Ask God first

    Have you lately come to a place where you simply just don’t know what to do next? Who do you turn to? Are you relying on your spouse, parents, mentors, leaders or friends for answers? I am not suggesting you don’t seek wise and Godly council – it is a Biblical principle. But where do you go…

    more
  26. W@W WRAP - Week 25: A disciplined life

    What is disciplined living? Are you open to wise, Godly instruction and counsel? Do you know that disciplined living leads to self-control and good discernment? The Lord instructs us to have teachable and responsive spirits. This implies being open good counsel and correction in the right way of...

  27. W@W WRAP - Week 24: All things possible through Christ

    The Merriam Webster dictionary defines contentment as: "The state of being happy and satisfied, it’s the freedom from worry or restlessness leading to peaceful satisfaction". Philippians 4:12b-13 (MSG): “…I’ve found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty....

  28. W@W WRAP - Week 23: God is LOVE!

    Do you know that our Father God cares more for us than we could ever understand, that He will never leave nor forsake us? His love for us will never fail, it will never run dry, it will never stop. Our Lord is Love! Love means life, hope, kindness, goodness, grace, mercy, compassion, wisdom, and...

  29. W@W WRAP - Week 22: Our help comes from God

    We serve a good good Father. Do you really trust God as your keeper, provider and protector? Do you expect Him to come through for you, not only in the big and scary things, but really in EVERYTHING, in every second of every day? Psalm 121:5, 8 (AMP): “The LORD is your keeper; The LORD is your...

  30. W@W WRAP - Week 21: Speaking to our Father

    Prayer is powerful! How often do you spend time speaking to our Heavenly Father? Matthew 6:6 (NIV): “Here’s what I want you to do: Find a quiet, secluded place so you won’t be tempted to role-play before God. Just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to...

  31. W@W WRAP - Week 20: Learning and understanding start with God

    Wisdom is to know our Father God. To know Him, we need to spend time with Him. A God-first life is one in which we seek knowledge, understanding and insight from our Father God. It involves setting our hearts to live in absolute obedience to His will, and to be 100% dependent on Him for…

    more
  32. W@W WRAP - Week 19: Nothing is impossible!

    Do you sometimes limit yourself or others? Do you do this merely because you don’t believe or dream big enough? Do you truly believe that for our amazing Father God – nothing is impossible? Luke 1:36-38 (NIV): “And did you know that your cousin Elizabeth conceived a son, old as she is? Everyone...

  33. W@W WRAP - Week 18: A good good Father

    We serve a good good Father, who wants the best for us, who holds our plans and dreams in the palm of His hand, and who provides and cares for us. He loves us more than we can ever comprehend! Psalm 34:8 (MSG): “Open your mouth and taste, open your eyes and see - how good GOD is. Blessed are you...

  34. W@W WRAP - Week 17: Love and kindness

    Do you understand how much God truly loves you? There is no greater act of love or kindness than laying your life down so that someone else can live a life of freedom! 1 Corinthians 1:10 (NIV): “I have a serious concern to bring up with you, my friends, using the authority of Jesus, our Master....

  35. W@W WRAP - Week 16: Living attached to the one and only true Vine

    Have you considered what it really means to be living attached to the one and only true Vine? Jesus says in John 15:4 (MSG): “Live in me. Make your home in me just as I do in you. In the same way that a branch can’t bear grapes by itself but only by being joined to the vine, you can’t bear fruit...

  36. W@W WRAP - Week 15: Celebrating Jesus

    As we think about Calvary, let’s celebrate and praise the Name of our Lord, JESUS CHRIST. 1 Corinthians 11:26 (Amp): “For every time you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are [symbolically] proclaiming [the fact of] the Lord’s death until He comes [again].”

  37. W@W WRAP - Week 14: The greatest gift

    The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines GIFT as: "Something voluntarily transferred by one person to another without compensation". What is the greatest GIFT you have every received?

  38. W@W WRAP - Week 13: Tree of Life

    Do you sometimes feel like hiding because you’ve eaten forbidden fruit? Know and believe, that regardless of our sin, shame or fear, we never again need to hide from God. Know that we have LIFE because of the One who gave His life for us (refer to Galatians 1:4). Genesis 3:11 (NIV): “And God…

    more
  39. W@W WRAP - Week 12: Where are you?

    Can we be found in the presence of the One who made us? The One who has a wonderful plan for our lives? Do we really spend enough time with our amazing Father?

    more
  40. W@W WRAP - Week 11: You are chosen

    Regardless of our mistakes, our inadequacies, our weaknesses or our failures, we have a Father who loves us, and who created us fearfully, wonderfully, and perfectly. He doesn’t make mistakes and He has chosen us! John 15: 16-17 quotes the words of Jesus: "You didn’t choose me, remember; I chose...

  41. W@W WRAP - Week 10: In our Father’s image

    Have you ever stopped to consider what it truly means when we say that we were created in God’s image and likeness? That we are a reflection of our Creator? That we are like Him? Would that cause you to act differently? To look at yourself differently? To look at and treat those around you...

  42. W@W WRAP - Week 9: Fearfully and Wonderfully made

    What do you see when you look in the mirror? Do you see ‘not good enough’, ‘not pretty enough’, ‘so many flaws’, ‘so many failures’? Why do we listen to what the world tells us about who we should be, how we should look, and how we should act? Please stop... let’s step back into the beginning.…

  43. W@W WRAP - Week 8: Joyful workers

    Joy is defined as “the emotion evoked by well-being, success, or good fortune; or by the prospect of possessing what one desires”.

  44. W@W WRAP - Week 7: Intentional living

    A God-first, Christ-led, Holy Spirit-inspired life is all about being intentional with how we spend our days.

  45. W@W WRAP - Week 6: Victory comes from TRUSTING and OBEYING God!

    Victory comes from TRUSTING and OBEYING God! Do you truly trust and believe that nothing is impossible for our Father? That you can be victorious in anything because of Jesus?
