Joseph: Week 3 - Hope on Hold - Steph Pienaar

What do you do when your hope feels like it's on hold? In Week 3 of our series on the life of Joseph, Steph walks us through Genesis 40 to unpack what it looks like to navigate seasons where our expectations feel paused. Looking at Joseph's time in prison, we learn how to serve others despite our circumstances, trust what we know about God, and actively participate in His sovereign providence. Steph also draws a powerful contrast between Joseph - who asked the cupbearer to remember his innocence - and Jesus, who hears our cry for mercy and changes our destiny.

Joseph: Week 2 - Faithfulness Before Fulfilment - Greg Groenmeyer

Have you ever wondered why God sometimes seems to delay His promises? How do you maintain your integrity and trust in God's presence when your circumstances go from bad to worse? In this episode, Greg dives into Genesis 39 to explore the theme of Faithfulness Before Fulfilment. Walking through Joseph’s journey from Potiphar’s house to a prison cell, we discover that God's providence is often invisible while we are living through it. Instead of asking, "God, when will You change my circumstances?" we are challenged to ask, "Lord, who are You forming me to become?" Missed an episode?

Joseph: Week 1 - A Flawed Family - Lee-Ann Maughan

Ever feel like your family dynamic is a bit of a mess? You are in good company. In this opening episode of our new series, Joseph, Lee-Ann dives into the chaotic, highly flawed family history of one of the Bible's most famous figures. From glaring parental favouritism and a flashy robe of many colours to sibling jealousy that spirals into pure hatred, Joseph’s story starts in a place of deep dysfunction. Yet, wrapped right in the middle of these intense family rivalries and delayed dreams are the profound promises of God working all things together for good. Tune in to discover how God can take our most messy, complicated realities and shape them into a beautiful, historic purpose that has multitudes in mind.

When you pray: Week 4 - Rejoice - Paul Maughan

In our latest episode, we dive into the powerful, life-giving practice of Rejoicing as we walk through the opening movements of the Lord’s Prayer: “Hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done.” Drawing on both timeless scripture and fascinating neuroscience, which reveals that our brain’s "joy centre" never loses its capacity to grow, this message reminds us that we were intricately wired to anchor our emotional and spiritual resilience in the continuous, soul-exhilarating joy of God. Instead of settling for a quiet, dutiful faith, we are challenged to actively expand our capacity for joy through highly practical rhythms like speaking truth to our own souls, praying the Psalms, and discovering our own unique style of worship. It’s an inspiring call to move past silent compliance and step into the vibrant praise we were created for; and as always, you can explore all our series resources at www.cgseapoint.co.za/when-you-pray [www.cgseapoint.co.za/when-you-pray]
