Real Life Church

Date: 15/05/2022 The greatest revival that we need today is not mega stadiums and mega churches. It is a revival that Jesus is Lord. Given the situation of the "western church", much will now depend on whether we are willing to break out from a stifling herd instinct. And find, Jesus is Lord, again, in the context for the advancing the Kingdom of God.

Date:08/05/2022 They are not three entities, but you made up with three interwoven facets.  Alison shares on the importance of being well balances in order to be whole. Let’s not be super-spiritual, but be healed, whole and delivered.

Date: 01/04/2022 As a prophetic/apostolic house we see in the spirit what the trinity is doing and we release it into the natural by releasing the supernatural with signs, wonders and miracles. Words of knowledge, wisdom, and prophesy.

Date: 24/04/2022 The Lord has turned the page over Real Life… We are entering into a new level of revelation to walk out with purpose and understanding what is written in the next chapter

Date:10/04/20222 Wrapping up our Luke 15 series Why is Jesus’s story of a shepherd who loses a sheep, a lady who lost a coin and a dad with two lads, make, the listeners to upset that they would want to kill him? How is this a portrait of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit? How does it lead to an almighty, heavenly PARTY!

Date:03/04/2022 From the story of a Dad and his Lads. I believe that there is an invitation from the Lord this morning I believe God is inviting each of us, to learn how to parent Because we can then become those who can… With generosity and authenticity Welcome sons and daughters home.

Date : 27/03/2022 Leaving home is easy when you want to run away. I wonder how many of us know someone who wants to live it up, before they are willing to grow up... Some of us, today are not where we thought we would be in your life right now. And in that place of nowhere land dreams often die. It is time to come home to Father and to His family...

Date :13/02/2022

Date:06/02/2022 Jesus does not save us into heaven, as nice as that sounds. Jesus saves us into family At some point we need to have the hard talk about discipleship, maturity and growth. To challenge those around us on the growth and maturity. It is not a shame thing It is accountability thing It is a love thing

Date: 06/12/2021 The church exists for the city The city does not exist for the church Too often we have church centric churches Churches that serve themselves Kingdom centered churches serve their cities

Date:28/11/2021 The goal of God is not… To get the whole city the church It is to get the whole church into the city

Date :14/11/2021 Nehemiah is serving the King his wine. But long before he is serving the king, he has been serving THE King. Long before he is standing in the presence of this man-king He has been standing in the presence of a God-King Long before he gets sent, God has already sent him. It happens in the moment before the moment

Date: 24/10/2021 The Difference Between People Encountering God&God Encountering People.

Date: 10/10/2021 Because I believe that God is leading the church into a season of clarity. The type of clarity that leads us to creativity, that leads us to compassion, that leads us to courage that leads us to clout in our community So wht toi we ache after the past?

Date :

Fear is one of the most destructive and yet tolerated issues in the church. Faith is a deep confidence in who God is And who we are in him. So, what type of faith?

Date: 05/09/2021

Date:29/08/2021

I believe to many believers think… I have enough God for now For too many believers that is their goal I have enough of everything, even God!

Date: 15/08/2021 The church is not always the most beneficial thing, and the church has the potential to entrench our thinking… Into a mindset that is not always accurate Rev 3:15 “I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth! Not the most endearing words from Jesus But definitely attention grabbing Join us for a fresh perspective

Speaker Candice Rossouw Title Being in your storms WITH Jesus. What are YOUR storms revealing about you? What is the storm of COVID revealing about you? Your Character, your commitment, your covenant To FIRST Love In your storms, how is Jesus being defined?

Date : 20 June 2021

Date:06/06/2021 It is a tragically, that you can attend a church for years, and never grow. You grow when you become the living church. If we need a fierce theology of growth and maturity. What?

Date : 31/05/2021 An encouraging perspective in winning, not just overcoming though our suffering...

Date : 23 May 2021 There will be a war in your soul… But you can suffer with fear or you can suffer with faith. You can suffer with God, you can suffer without God The choice is yours. You can suffer for the right reasons Or you can suffer for the wrong reasons. You cannot follow Jesus, without soul suffering… That producing of Jesus likeness in us and through us. But how and why. And, why church?

Date:16 May 2021 Most of us do not need more direction from God. Most are so concerned about needing to know what to do next, that we miss the very presence of Jesus. And Jesus transforms us in community in a way that you WILL NOT GET ON YOUR OWN.

 Date 9 May 2021  This book is not about the antichrist This book is about the living Christ

A difficult conversation: A response to racial intolerance, gender-based violence, bullying, social injustice… What is the heart of God?

Date: 18/04/2021 What is a disciple? How did Jesus make disciples? How does loving and hugging fit in? How does hiking and dining grow Kingdom?

Date: 11/04/2021 The church is called to love our neighbours. FULL STOP! What is Jesus’s example? Join us for a challenging and poignant teaching on loving your neighbour, with GRACE!

Date:28/03/2021 I long for us to build an apostolic family that is big enough and safe enough so that every son and daughter can live into the fullness of their life. Whatever it may look like!!

Date: 21/03/2021 In an ever changing world the church must embrace change too, or remain a relic of her past. This is a prophetic and powerful understanding of what God has called His church to. This is Real Life Church!

Date: 14/03/2021 We cannot love a world that we believe we are at war with. Are we more consumed with our standing in church than our standing in Jesus? Most people in the world believe that a Christians primary focus is to make a statement not to make a friend We have created a war over agenda, over colour and so much more. Let’s commit to change. to becoming radical lovers of the world. Now that’s evangelism, 101, and it effective too.

Date: 07/03/2021 We need to become a people who give birth to a creative response in the world. We cannot live in reaction to pandemic, to paranoia, to sin, to offence, etc. As an apostolic and prophetic group of people, who have the mind of Christ, we should not just respond but we should redeem and restore the word. We need to become less reactionary and more embracing! The church needs to break out of its suffocating self-absorption to be able to move into, and to embrace the world. We need to enter the ache of the world, where we allow the ache of the world to change us so that we get to change the WORLD, not just our home groups. We can change the world! Let me share how….

Date : 28/02/2021 When you truly encounter and keep encountering God… He does not lead you into the “safety” of Christianity He actually leads you into the places in the world that desperately needs someone who believes God. So God is leading us to where religion cannot go!

Date: 21/02/2021 I am concerned that the church is on the wrong boat, looking for God in the wrong place. Heading in the wrong direction. Moving away from the manifestation and the presence of God. We cannot be the people that are only loved by God. We have to become the people that are led by Him.

Date: 14/02/2021 There are people in this world who offend me. There are people in the world that I totally disagree with. There are people in the world that totally freak me out. But God so loved all the world, I He did not. It would give me mu excuse to go my way and not His. Is there a reason why the church is missing out on the Real, Radical and Redemptive promises of God.

Date :07/02/2021 John 3:16 is not just our favourite verse from Sunday school or a bumper sticker. May it become an anthem to us. “For God so loved the world...” My prayer is that through this series and during this time of maturity and growth we experience a love that is so profound, that we as believers become the greatest lovers on the face of planet. The world is starved for a love encounter. The world is starved for a love encounter with God.

BY Mark Roussouw Date: 24/01/2021 GOD is LOVE & JESUS is our blueprint example and the expression of what LOVE looks like.

Date: 20 December 2020 As a church… We may have lived from community into love... Yet, few of us have lived from love into courage We can do the spiritual bumper sticker in the moment, but are we really willing to truly risk for God.

Date 6 December 2020 My desire is that in the next few weeks I will be able to lead you out of confusion and into discovering the Spiritual gifts. Increasing faith, and risking and releasing the promise of your authentic and powerful supernatural gifts..

Date : 29 November 2020  Before you embrace your spiritual gifting, you must embrace your spiritual family. God releases power in a family, that is why this is significant If I have not settled my belonging before God, I will use my power to get love from people, rather than give love to people If I have not settled my belonging, I will use power not to prove Jesus, but to prove myself.

Date :22 November 2020 My deepest desire is not invite you to a message, a mornings meeting or a motivational talk. It is to invite you into a series of encounters that will transform your life and revolutionise the environment around you so that others will be transformed in and through the Power that is in you!

By   St2 Steven Scripture          Luke 19 We need to move beyond passion. Passion is when you feel God. I am passionate about my nation. I am passionate about justice. We must move to vision. When you actually see yourself on assignment with God. At the end of the day, passion will not transform the world. We cannot stand before Jesus one day and say, “at least I was passionate”. We need to change how we think and how we behave. Join us on Sunday on-line or in-person to understand how and learn more….

By St2 Steven Date: 10 October 2020 As Christian infants we always follow Jesus, but as we mature Jesus wants us to go ahead in our assignments. We get commissioned, we get sent. We are no longer just keeping up – we are leading, we are influencing, we are living life – and to the full. Jesus wants to follow the obedient, the maturing. Jesus wants to follow the Real, the Radical and the Relevant. Is Jesus following you?

“When considering corona pandemic lockdown and post-corona gathered church, there’s a tension between the core basics of doing church that must be affirmed and in some cases put back in place, and on the other hand, some things are no longer needed and new ways of doing church have emerged. So, the tension between the ‘main & plain’ that must be affirmed and the ‘new contextual’ that must be pursued” Our Guests Alexander Venter Alexander is an Author, Teacher, Pastor, and a recognised Apostolic voice in South Africa.

By Alison Steven Worldly HOPE is whimsical wishful thinking – “I hope I get a new job”-its strength is in the desire YOU have. But biblical hope is so powerful – because it’s an activation of faith (the things hoped for and yet not seen) and its strength lies in God’s Faithfulness! My HOPE is that as you listen to this, it brings hope into all your circumstances because as Steve Backlund says “He/ She who has the most hope has the most influence!” Bless you as you listen

Date      8 November 2020 By           Mark Roussouw In a busy and fractured world, how do we remain full of revelation, vision, and purpose? It is not by becoming busy but by positioning ourselves at the feet of Jesus. Mary absorbed Kingdom revelation from Jesus when she gave extravagantly, went into “no-go areas” and left her mark, not just on her family and community, but her nation and our world.

By Mark Rossouw and Ashleigh Simpson 16 August 2020 3 John 1:2 (TPT) The unprecedented nature of our COVID-19 is setting the stage for us to practice how to effectively navigate through difficult circumstances and it’s accompanying emotions, thoughts and struggles. We believe that God is calling us to submit to the ‘cacooning process’ so that we can learn (and at times, unlearn) how to be effective within relationships. However, when we think of relationships we often think of the happenings between two entities and we tend to neglect the relationship that we are meant to have with ourselves. We delve into the juicy and somewhat neglected region of emotional health and well-being and why emotional maturity is not only advised, but also required if we are to be effective in the Kingdom and satisfied generally.

By Candice Rossouw 7 June 2020 Proverbs 29:18 Psalm 85:8 If we do not change the way we think, we will always be looking back at old comforts rather than the inheritance of what God is doing.  We need fresh and current revelation of what God is doing. We need to listen intentionally and listen intelligently to what God is doing When the ecclesia rises up and do what He is doing, and when we legislate and release Kingdom, there is power. Your Kingdom come, on earth as it is in Heaven”.

By ST2 We may be in the same storm, but we are not necessarily in the same boat. The purpose of the church is not limited to preaching and teaching. We are called to prepare. What do you believe and what are you doing about it? Geography does not isolate us – silence does! We need this personal revelation so that we can be a conduit from heaven and not a “forward and resend” of other people’s revelation

By John Hutcheson 5 July Pentecost Sunday-31 May 2020 Scripture   Acts 2:1-21, Mt. 28:19-20 How did an obscure carpenter from Nazareth, who never wrote a book, who never held high office, who never led an army and who died an ignoble death on a Cross become the Man who has affected civilisation as we know it today more profoundly than any other. We are called to do work with God by going to all people spreading the Good News. Grace & Truth!

By St2 Steven 12 July 2020 Now more than ever we need to equip and empower so that believers know wherever they are they create atmosphere and environments for people to come home before they come to church. No longer can we lead with a mindset that God revolves around the church, the church revolves around God There is far too much confusion and polarisation in the structured church today that it overrides the relational foundation of Kingdom. There are too many people who avoid church because they do not want to be found guilty by association. We are not just learning to embrace people when they come home, we are learning to embrace God’s people when they become undone.

By St2 Steven 5 July 2020 There is a generation is not long for a better denomination, but who are looking for family. They want a place where they can be fully undone so that they can become fully alive. This is a story of two sons, a son is lost to rebellion and there is a son lost to religion. It is a story about an orphan who left home and an orphan who stayed home. We are the most loved people and the planet becoming the most loving people on the planet. Church is a party and you do not become a spiritual father and a spiritual mother until you receive the party and learn to release the party.

By St2 Steven 28 June 2020 It’s about a father who has created an environment of love so that a son can come home to an environment of Sonship, identity, empowerment and authority. If we are truly following Jesus we should never be standing still. We cannot overtake Him and you must not lag behind Him. And often it is difficult to keep up with Jesus. And Jesus is still committed to leading us if we are willing to follow. If we are not listening to the noise around us but responding to the voice within us. It is not about getting people to church, it is about getting people to God

By St2 Steven Successful evangelism is not getting someone to pray a prayer or come to your church meetings. It is about getting someone, one step closer to Jesus. The only way we get someone one step closer to Jesus is when we find a pathway to their heart There is that the only thing that will transform most people… Is an encounter with the unconditional love of God that should come from the body of Christ There are so many people who have walked away from the church because of religion and control. We need to know that that the prodigals, that the orphans will never return to control and religion and manipulation and shame But they will return to compassion…

By St2 Steven Scripture John 8 Too often believers fearlessly give themselves to battles. And God is looking on and thinking, “What on earth are you doing?”. That is not what called you to. That is not where I call you to spend your life. You are literally wasting your time. When we fight the wrong battles, we will miss the heart of God, which is transformation of the heart.
