episode Inoculation for the Long Haul | 1 Corinthians 15:54-58 | James Robson artwork

Inoculation for the Long Haul | 1 Corinthians 15:54-58 | James Robson

In this chapel talk at our Commissioning Service, Principal James Robson expounds on the powerful concluding words of 1 Corinthians 15:58. Ministry and Christian leadership bring profound joys, but they also expose our deepest vulnerabilities. Whether you are facing sheer exhaustion, a perceived lack of fruit, isolation, or the pain of watching people wander away, the temptation to ask "was it all worth it?" is incredibly real. Drawing from Paul's letter to the Corinthians, James provides a spiritual "inoculation" for long-term ministry resilience. Because Jesus Christ has been physically raised from the dead, the reality of the resurrection completely alters our reality. Your faith, your preaching, your grace, and your collective labor in the Lord are absolutely never in vain. Be encouraged to sit tight, stand firm, and give yourself fully to the work of the Lord today.

episode Words for the Hasty of Heart | Isaiah 35:4 | Mark Stirling artwork

Words for the Hasty of Heart | Isaiah 35:4 | Mark Stirling

In this Oak Hill College Chapel talk, Mark Stirling offers a personal and profound meditation on Isaiah 35:4. Moving beyond the standard translation of "anxious of heart," Mark explores the Hebrew literalism of the "hasty of heart"—those of us who are quick to react, busy of brain, and prone to responding out of fear or anger. Drawing from his own recent journey in counselling and self-awareness, Mark highlights four essential truths we must speak to our hasty hearts before we respond to the stimuli of life: God Comes: He is present regardless of our feelings. He Comes with Vengeance: He is the judge; we don't have to be. He Comes with Benefits: He is good and wants what is best for us. He Comes to Save: He is the Saviour; we are not. Learn why slowing down to recognise the Lord’s promised presence is life-transforming for our relationships and our leadership. Mark Stirling is the course director for the Masters in Contemporary Christian Leadership here at Oak Hill College. Mark has served in various ministry capacities, including work with students and leaders to encourage self-awareness and faithful stewardship of power.

"Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it; prone to leave the God I love." Many Christians resonate with these famous hymn lyrics.

Discover how to seek the Lord as both Protector and Teacher, and learn practical "Top Tips" for hiding God’s Word in your heart so it’s ready when you need it most.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
