Join Susan Downie your host as she continues to explore the book of Titus. The Apostle Paul's pastoral letter to a young church leader Titus. In Chapter three she finds the challenge to herself regarding what "good" looks like and how "good" is measured and exercised within the Christian world and outside of it.  She compares the difference between standing firm and standing down when work life may not reflect the "good" the bible speaks of. Susan invites us all to regard our behaviour as though we are between the Grace we receive at new birth, through the Holy Spirit, and the Glory that is promised to all believers and will experienced in eternal life.  Susan further reminds us that judgement is Gods and Gods alone, and we are only to watch out for the planks in our own eyes. Using Tim Chesters book Titus For You published by The Good Book Company, she expands on Grace as the engine of the Good life. This section of Titus is given some headings in Tim Chesters Book. Namely: New Hope New Love, New identity.  Reminding us that God's ways are not our ways and that His thoughts are not our thoughts, we must be mindful to enquire of God when making any major decisions. We must weigh our behaviour against the list in Titus three. This states we are to be peaceable; considerate; gentle; and avoid slander. Especially when sending an email she advises that we Do Not Press Send! Using an example from her own current work life experience. She calls for patience understanding and godly responses as God has been merciful to each one of us.  Finally she asks us to consider some questions raised by Tim Chester in his reflection on Titus.   Think about what is best and what is harder in your life?   How does knowing you live between grace and glory shape your attitude towards those things.   Think back to how reflecting on Gods generosity gods grace gods mercy towards you motivates you to change?   Who could you encourage to enjoy gods grace and coming glory today ?

Join Your host Susan Downie who invites listeners to a 15–20 minute quiet time exploring Palm Sunday, Exodus 14–15, and the name Jehovah Rapha (the LORD who heals). She reflects on miracles, human tendency to complain after blessings, physical and spiritual dehydration, and how the cross provides healing and spiritual refreshment. She advises we spend some time thinking about our own situations and reflecting on whether we also, like the crowd on Palm Sunday, Praise Jesus on day 1 but by day 3 complain.  Like the people of God in the wilderness at Marah, do we find the bitter water unpalatable despite it being the best for us at the time.  Susan recommends we avoid the desire to control outcomes this week and worship the LORD who heals Jehovah Rapha. Using one of her top 5 worship songs today.

Join Susan Downie your host as she expands further on the role of Titus in the early Cretan Church. Susan looks at the dynamic of peer to peer mentoring within the church. Reading from Tim Chesters book Titus For You published by The Good Book Company,and the sources online, she manages to bring a fresh understanding to the struggles that Titus may have faced when trying to teach and encourage his peer group. Susan explores the idea of younger men's attitudes and development stages. Using practical examples and the differences between her two sons, she highlights the difficulties that Titus would have been facing when attempting to lead men his own age. Called to set an example by living a life of self control  titus was also to  teach the gravity of Christ Crucified. Susan concludes with an invitation to  all young men listening, to find a mentor to sit under and learn from. Like Titus she advises they chose a man within their church family,  a man of integrity who is following Jesus Christ in truth.

Join Susan Downie your host as she continues in the book of Titus tackling the subject of mentoring within the early church, as Paul instructs Titus. Today we see the dynamic that Paul is advising for Older women with respect to leading the younger women within the context of house hold gatherings. Comparing her own family dynamic or patriarchy, that of her husbands matriarchal set up,  she allows us to explore different paradigms that could occur in these groups. In addition using her daughters life style and two daughter in laws, she highlights the value of extended family of women around a young wife and mother. Honouring her beautiful friend, wife and mother, Becky her younger daughter in laws Mother, she exemplifies how mentoring and sound doctrine works within a family setting and beyond. Describing how Becky her friend, was able too teach mentor and lead by example  so many women and men, evidenced in a funeral almost 4 years ago, attended by over 300 plus friends and family. Susan prays a prayer of gratitude for friendships that keep on giving even after life has ended here on earth,  and for role models for all women past, present and future. Susan invites us all to thank the LORD, Yahweh, for our past mentors and be mindful to lead and teach sound doctrine to those of the next generation. Todays episode was recorded in honour of Becky Blake a Beautiful wife mother and teacher and someone who is missed every day by so many. We Love you and miss you Becky.

Join Susan Downie your host as she begins to unpack how Titus was to set up a discipleship programmes within the Cretan Church. With Paul as his metaphorical Gym Spotter and Titus as the Weight lifter Susan explains further the dynamic  that was advised by Paul in order to produce Gospel Truth Based Godliness. Using Gym analogies of different groupings within any gym setting today Susan is able to bring to life the need for Good programmes and godly  role models working together to produce transformed lives. Observing the difficulties this would have presented for a young man in a ancient elder honouring society she makes the argument that there would have been points of fail. Areas that Paul had to step into and help and this was one of them Teaching older men to be Godly examples for the younger men of which Titus was one would have had to have the backing of his spotter Paul another older man in her view.  Using notes from Tim Chesters Book Titus for You Published by the Good Book Company, she  quotes him as attesting to the fact that perhaps older men had a tendency to be grumpy and cynical and had lost the desire to serve within the church. Hence her title Grey no Grumpy! Susan ends with a prayer and a call to each ono of us to live our lives in a godly manner in order to see spiritual transformation that is real and true.

Join Susan Downie your host as she revisits the verses in Titus 1 :10-16. Using the book by Tim Chester called Titus for you published by the Good book company. She invites us to consider our position. What do we stand for. Do we stand for Godliness or Rebellion.  Susan looks further into the call on Titus by Paul to put in order that which is yet unfinished. Looking deeper into the meaning of rebellion and especially rebellion and disobedience within the church in Crete and within our churches today. With practical examples from her life experience she explains how rebellion can disrupt church growth and christian development, but with good eldership and leadership all can be resolved and rebooted. Finishing with a charge to us all to look at our own hearts and identify any areas where we are not willing to submit to the will of God. Where we are pushing back on the authority of God.   To contact Susan  use either of the following:  [email protected]   Visit the Charity website on : https://www.adventworldwide.co.uk/ This Podcast is not monetized but any donations would be welcomed with thanks.  If you like what you hear please subscribe to receive archived episodes, like and share to spread the Word.

Join Susan Downie your host as she reflects on Psalm 139 and uses practical analogies of her family events on Saturday evening with her eldest grandson. She invites us all to understand that God is everywhere and that he knows the end from the beginning. Standing at the finish line of all our lives he was there even before you were formed.  She explains how the writer of the psalm uses craftsman terminology when describing conception to birth in order to help us understand God's attention to detail.  With funny stories about her own inability to crochet like her more expert friends Susan finds ways to unpack God's craftsmanship in forming each one of us.  Acknowledging some of us are nearer to the finish line than others picking up of the wording of this Psalm 139 v 10-12  "even there," Susan reminds us that death is just a shadow. Quoting from Psalm 23 v 4, she goes on to say that  in this world we live in dark valleys of human death, are shadows, but that eternal life is promised to all who follow Jesus Christ.  Giving God the glory for the events of her weekend she concludes that his hand is in the details of our lives and that we can trust he has all of our todays and tomorrows worked out in advance.    To contact Susan  use either of the following:  [email protected]   Visit the Charity website on : https://www.adventworldwide.co.uk/ This Podcast is not monetized but any donations would be welcomed with thanks.  If you like what you hear please subscribe to receive archived episodes, like and share to spread the Word.

Join Susan Downie your host as she continues to explore the topic of Godliness and Truth alongside Tim Chester from the book ,Titus For You published by the Good Book Company.  She rewinds the tape today in order to give us practical applications of Gods Election. Revisiting the opening verses of this book she invites us into an imaginary game of pass the parcel. Using this creative  analogy for the way God's Elect are identified.  Going further to explore the concept of mission and our call to spread the good news of Jesus Christ. Susan revisits the command from Jesus : Matthew 28:18-20 in the passage titled the Great Commission. Here Jesus asks his disciples to go make disciples. Comparing this to what Paul is training Titus to do. Identify, Qualify and Equip those God has chosen within the Cretan Church.  Asking us to do the same by sharing the gospel far and wide using this podcast  message to invite our friends and colleagues to hear the Gospel without offence and make their own decision for Christ.

Join Susan Downie Your Host as she continues in the book of Titus using a commentary called Titus For You by Tim Chester published by the Good Book Company. Susan explains further the role of Titus in the Cretan Church. Likening the advent of disrupters and deceivers to a storm within the church that Titus may not have seen coming.  Pauls letter is explaining to Titus that he must deal directly with those leading the Cretan church astray and that he should do this curtly, sharply. Susan looks at the meaning of the word "Apotomos", used here to instruct the manner in which Titus was to correct the members of the church.  With personal stories of storms that were unannounced in the Uk in 1987 she attempts to contextualise the Bomb that just landed on Titus's lap.  Using Tim Chesters' book to explain Paul's sole Mission. Susan describes  how from Rome Paul continued to instruct from the standpoint of making disciples rather than converts. Gospel centred and mission based.  Tomorrow Susan will be interviewing one of her good friends Reverend Erika Biscoe on her  Live Stream  at 9.00am. A  Vicar Pioneer of Cherish Ministry Uk.

Join Susan Downie your host as she continues in Paul's Letter to Titus, using the commentary Titus for you by Tim Chester from the Good Book Company. She expands on yesterday's instruction by Paul to Titus to appoint leaders,  elders, overseers within the Cretan Church.  Susan invites us all to live a Gospel centred life and look at conducting an inventory on our own lives with a view to  identifying where we have perhaps been "padding" the message and making it less offensive and in so doing communicating a "boring, lacking in power" gospel.  With personal applications Susan is able to explain what that might look like in each one of our circumstances and compares our lives to those of the early church founders.  This episode digs a little deeper than yesterdays in order to provide more context and comparison for us listeners.    To contact Susan  use either of the following:  [email protected]   Visit the Charity website on : https://www.adventworldwide.co.uk/ This Podcast is not monetized but any donations would be welcomed with thanks.  If you like what you hear please subscribe to receive archived episodes, like and share to spread the Word.

Join Susan Downie your host as she journeys through the book of Titus. Using personal stories and experiences too bring to life the Island of Crete and the mediterranean culture. Susan helps us relate to the trials and difficulties that Titus may have been facing at this time.  Susan compares the Cretan church too the Galatian church suggesting that they may have had similarities.  Inviting us to explore the notion that the list Paul writes in Titus 1:5-9 may have been more like an identifying kit, characteristics that would have naturally surfaced  in someone that was following Jesus and understood their salvation was by Grace through faith instead of a legalistic set of requirements.

Join Susan Downie your host as she introduces us to the book of Titus. Here she begins the journey with a brief but interesting overview of the origins of the writer of this letter, the apostle Paul. She explains his heritage and his command of both scripture and language identifying his relationship with the Greek translations of the old testament the Septuagint. Susan informs us of his Roman citizenship and how that would have come about. Paul being from Tarsus a Free Roman City. All this in order to give context to the letter and credence to the writer. She sites Biblestudy.org as her main source and is following a book by Tim Chester called Titus for you but has not used his material as yet.  Susan invites us all to ask for God's revelation with regards to our purpose and the plans God has  prepared in advance for each one of us. She calls to attention our need to confess the use of any God given gifting that has been employed like Paul in ungodly works of the flesh.  As Susan opens up this short book, she uses personal experience and occupational knowledge to bring us new insight into the apostle Paul and his conversion.  Explaining the side effects of Sun Exposure to his eyes, from an Optometric point of view.  To contact Susan email: [email protected] Or visit the Website at  https://www.adventworldwide.co.uk/ This podcast is not monetized but all donations to the charity above are received with thanks and blessings.  If you are enjoying this podcast please subscribe and follow and share with your friends and family.

Join Susan Downie on this Sunday, for more Sabbath rest.  Exploring the Psalms after a restful mothering Sunday in Uk. Today Susan walks us through Psalm 101 and parts of Psalm 121. She invites us to use Psalm 101 as a framework of confession and personal and emotional inventory. To align ourselves with God and decide on our non negotiables.  Her review of when this psalm may have been penned allows us to understand the context of Davids words.  With personal anecdotes and her own revelation of sins that needed to be confessed, Susan brings the psalm to life for us all to enjoy. For  additional learning and instruction Susan recommends her local Church St Pauls Salisbury Uk, where today associate pastor Matt Harrison covers Galations 5: 13-25 the Fruit of the Spirit with new insight .

Join Susan Downie your host as she wraps up the book of Ruth ,using notes by Toni Merida from his reflection called Ruth for You. Susan finds that genealogy and  lineage points to  future events. She describes her disappointment with her gardening skills as the polar opposite of the promises that God gives us in the book of Ruth.  Exploring how jews and  non jews, Murders,Adulterers, prostitutes, moabites, woman as well as men are all included in the genealogy of Jesus. Which was not the norm at the time of writing. She indicates this is proof that Jesus came to save sinners, and that meant all sinners.  Susan uses gardening analogies and life experience to bring God's promises to life for each one of us. She finishes with a prayer for us all and a reminder that Jesus is the Messiah the annointed one,  promised from Abraham to today to all who will believe.  This ends the series on Ruth for You.  To contact Susan email: [email protected] Visit Website: Adventworldwide.co.uk To contact Susan  use either of the following:  [email protected]   Visit the Charity website on : https://www.adventworldwide.co.uk/ This Podcast is not monetized but any donations would be welcomed with thanks.  If you like what you hear please subscribe to receive archived episodes, like and share to spread the Word.

Join Susan Downie your host as she expands on Toni Meridas Book, Ruth for you looking today at four headings as follows: 1. God has not forgotten his people.  2. God provides a Son for Boaz and Ruth. 3. God Provides a Redeemer for Naomi . 4. God provides a King for Israel. Susan takes an honest approach  surrounding the way writers depict pregnancy and childbirth alongside personal stories and compares it to this day and age. In addition she turns her attention to the Israel's need for a redeemer  as they were in darkness up to the end of the book of Judges. This redeemer is previewed, again using  literary poetic licence, in the mention of King David.  To contact Susan email: [email protected] Visit Website: Adventworldwide.co.uk To contact Susan  use either of the following:  [email protected]   Visit the Charity website on : https://www.adventworldwide.co.uk/ This Podcast is not monetized but any donations would be welcomed with thanks.  If you like what you hear please subscribe to receive archived episodes, like and share to spread the Word.
