In this podcast I discover that God wants me to be relaxed and I see why I am not relaxed. Based on a Bible reading plan, Lent for everyone, todays video is inspired by Matthew 6 and the Lord’s Prayer.

Lent takes place from Ash Wednesday to Maundy Thursday. It is 40 days in preparation for Easter. In this podcast I share some thoughts about Lent and what I am going to do this year around Lent.

In this podcast I share how I cam to start this online mission.  Having moved from my role as a Co-Senior Pastor and Founder of our church, Grace Family Church, I felt a new calling. This is that story. A recent retelling, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eb1TzvDcQWk  

In this podcast I share one of my favorite proverbs. It was through this proverb that I realized that I needed to make good plans. If I thought something was worth it, it was going to take work.

In this episode I talk about the fact that each of us have a different talent and ability. Once you recognise that, and you work with whatever talent you have, you can get a 100% return on your talent.    

In this 2nd episode I talk about "Making the most of What you do have".  So often we fail to fulfil our ambition of new adventures because we think that we don't have enough. Or that we are not enough. I have discovered from the story of the "Feeding of the 5 thousand" , that our starting point should always be, "What do i have".

With all that is going on in our world, 2020 may present some challenges.  But, you don't have to be subject to circumstance to have a great 2020.   This is the Part 1 in a 4 Part series where I get to share some things I have learnt that have helped me make the most of this one life we get to live.
