The Central Importance Of Repentance

Recorded on Sunday, March 7, 2010

What would Jesus have said to me in my terible experiences?  What would he have told me to do if he knew my difficulties.  We may well be surprised as were those who had this sort of conversation with Jesus as recorded in Luke chapter 13 vv.1-9.  Jan Waterschoot highlights the clear lines of Jesus' concern and recognises the continuity of his message with the prophetic tradition of Israel.

Where To Start Your Spiritual Journey in Life

Recorded on Sunday, February 21, 2010

As Messiah Jesus had the most amazing spiritual journey and it is a journey he calls people to follow him on as disciples.  The first Sunday in Lent this year picks up the journey at the wilderness temptations in Luke 4.  Francis opens this story up to show that the questions Jesus dealt with there are actually  questions everyone needs to deal with whether you take up your cross or not.  If you want a compass for the season of Lent, this will help provide one.
