Apostolic Triple Header Part 3 - Chris Frost: A Father, Son and Spirit vision for a diverse church.

This message marks the third part of the Apostolic Triple Header series, exploring how a Trinitarian perspective—centred on the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—shapes and fuels a healthy, unified, and culturally diverse church community. By anchoring diversity in the character of God, the sermon highlights that a multi-cultural family has been God's heartbeat for His Church from the very beginning to the end of scripture.   Preacher Chris Frost:  Website: https://www.christchurchblackpool.co.uk [https://www.christchurchblackpool.co.uk/] Subscribe to our YouTube channel: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl6eJaVNGskL6B_Q3j0yMZA⁠ Bible App: ⁠https://www.bible.com/organizations/e828c61d-f9f3-4fbe-9eaa-4b717413be50⁠ Stay connected:  Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/ccblackpool/⁠ Facebook: ⁠https://m.facebook.com/ChristCBlackpool/⁠ X: ⁠⁠https://mobile.twitter.com⁠⁠   Chapters 00:00 Introduction & Context  05:00 The Father's Heart for All Nations  12:00 The Son's Work: Breaking Down Walls  18:00 The Spirit's Power: Empowering Diversity  24:00 Practical Application & Vision  28:30 Closing Prayer & Conclusion

In this message, guest speaker Andy explores how our words provide a direct health check of our inner life and heart. Drawing from the book of James, he shares how we can shift from destructive, negative speech patterns into a lifestyle of encouragement and grace. Ultimately, we discover how the Holy Spirit transforms us from the inside out, empowering us to use our tongues as instruments of life, wisdom, and praise.   Preacher Andy Arscott:  Website: https://www.christchurchblackpool.co.uk [https://www.christchurchblackpool.co.uk/] Subscribe to our YouTube channel: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl6eJaVNGskL6B_Q3j0yMZA⁠ Bible App: ⁠https://www.bible.com/organizations/e828c61d-f9f3-4fbe-9eaa-4b717413be50⁠ Stay connected:  Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/ccblackpool/⁠ Facebook: ⁠https://m.facebook.com/ChristCBlackpool/⁠ X: ⁠⁠https://mobile.twitter.com⁠⁠   Chapters 0:00 - Introduction & A Triple Header of Speakers  1:20 - The Tongue as an Inner Health Check  2:46 - Out of the Abundance of the Heart the Mouth Speaks  4:37 - Words Have Power: The Impact of What We Say  6:43 - Wisdom from James: The Challenge of Tongue Mastery  8:44 - Three Ways the Tongue is Used  9:10 - Point 1: Understanding the Root of Negative Speech  12:47 - Inconsistency and Hypocrisy in Our Words  14:28 - Point 2: How Can We Tame the Tongue?  15:25 - God’s Promise of a New Heart  19:46 - Justification vs. Sanctification  21:27 - Embracing God's Discipline and Training  24:50 - Learning from Mistakes in the Christian Life  26:24 - Walking in the Light: Continual Repentance and Forgiveness  29:56 - Condemnation vs. Holy Spirit Conviction  33:04 - A Price Paid: The Justice and Grace of God  35:40 - Point 3: Using the Tongue Positively  36:00 - The Power of Life and Death: Words in Parenting and Influence  37:28 - A Tongue to Bless and Encourage Others  39:18 - Poem: "Don't Wait Until He's Dead"  40:37 - A Tongue of Heavenly Wisdom  41:15 - A Tongue of Witness and Personal Admonition  43:19 - A Tongue of Praise and Thankfulness  44:29 - Conclusion: Coming to a Gentle and Lowly Heart

How Can I Hear From God?

This week, we explore how hearing God’s voice is not meant to be a rare experience, but the birthright and privilege of every believer. Through personal testimonies from Andrea, Jen, and Kofo, we consider the many ways God speaks—through Scripture, everyday moments, and His still, small voice. We are also challenged to remove distractions and spend time seeking God so we can hear him more clearly.   Preacher Ben Read:  Website: https://www.christchurchblackpool.co.uk [https://www.christchurchblackpool.co.uk/] Subscribe to our YouTube channel: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl6eJaVNGskL6B_Q3j0yMZA⁠ Bible App: ⁠https://www.bible.com/organizations/e828c61d-f9f3-4fbe-9eaa-4b717413be50⁠ Stay connected:  Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/ccblackpool/⁠ Facebook: ⁠https://m.facebook.com/ChristCBlackpool/⁠ X: ⁠⁠https://mobile.twitter.com⁠⁠   Chapters 0:00 Hearing God's Voice: Your Christian Birthright 2:36 Cultivating Desire Overcoming Distractions 5:19 Big Max Verses Gods Voice: True Nourishment 8:51 How God Speaks: Dramatically Quietly And Through Scripture 11:05 Andrea's Journey: Hearing Gods In Nature And Thoughts 15:46 Jen’s Story: Simple Faith And God's Direction 21:13 Kofo’s Path: Obedience And Divine Intervention 27:40 Discerning God's Voice: Scripture Heart Community 32:44 Prophecy In Order: Lifting Eyes Above The Smog 40:23 How To Share God's Word Publicly And Humbly 44:31 The Daily Challenge: Seeking God's Presence

If God is Sovereign, Why Should We Pray?

Prayer is an invitation to build a deeply personal relationship with God rather than just fulfilling a religious obligation. Even though God is completely sovereign, He actively chooses to partner with humanity by incorporating our prayers into His ultimate design. Ultimately, this communication aligns our hearts with His will and transforms us from passive observers into active participants in His work.   Preacher Julian: Website: https://www.christchurchblackpool.co.uk [https://www.christchurchblackpool.co.uk/] Subscribe to our YouTube channel: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl6eJaVNGskL6B_Q3j0yMZA⁠ Bible App: ⁠https://www.bible.com/organizations/e828c61d-f9f3-4fbe-9eaa-4b717413be50⁠ Stay connected:  Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/ccblackpool/⁠ Facebook: ⁠https://m.facebook.com/ChristCBlackpool/⁠ X: ⁠⁠https://mobile.twitter.com⁠⁠   Chapters 0:00 Continuing Our Question Series: If God Is Sovereign Why Pray? 2:26 Unpacking The Question: If God Is Sovereign Why Should We Pray? 5:04 Moving Beyond Black And White Thinking To Gods Tension 9:11 Understanding God's Supreme Authority And Control  11:30 How God’s Sovereignty Incorporates Human Agency And Partnership 15:22 Connecting With A Loving Father: Prayer Beyond Just Asking 21:37 Abraham's Dialogue With Gods Over Sodom And Gomorrah 25:29 Examples Of Prayers Impact Moses And The Canaanite Woman 31:06 God Invites Us To Partner In History, Following Jesus Prayer Life 34:37 Our Identity In God And The Transformative Power Of Prayer
