Send us a text Go Deeper with Andy B, as he talks about resisting temptation. He reads both of our Scriptures for this week: James 4:7 and Matthew 4:1-11. Jesus faced the same temptations we do when He came to earth as a man, so He understands our struggles against temptation. Andy B relates the story of a wealthy lady who was hiring a new chauffer, and how she asked each of the applicants a very specific question to test them.

Send us a text Go Deeper with Andy B, as he looks at Ecclesiastes 12:1-14 and what it all means. He challenges those of us who are young not to waste our youth; it is short and time flies by. He also reminds us of the dangers of making decisions based on how many likes we get on social media. In addition, Andy B draws our attention to the man who had the most pleasure in life, King Solomon himself, and what conclusions he reached on the subject of pleasure. Our modern culture is all about gettin...

Send us a text I’ve spent most of my adult, working life, wearing a hard hat, glove and steel toe capped boots. Because I love my head and my toes and wish to keep them the way they should be. I banged my head, pretty badly, early on – because I thought hard hats were stupid and annoying and uncomfortable. I had a very bad head for a while after that encounter! And I also discovered that standing up, underneath the main boom of a lorry mounted crane, is never sensible! I took quite a lot of insu...

Send us a text If you think of a spring, they’re fitted everywhere! From DVD players to cars, from bicycle derailleurs to pens and staplers, from watches to door handles! We can find springs, in one form or another, almost everywhere. And they have a really simple job – to make something move in a predictable way. On my bike, the part I fitted has a huge spring which forces the derailleur to be pushed away from the centre of the wheel. When you press the gear lever, it allows that spring to rela...

Send us a text We all have experiences in life which can be super helpful for ourselves, and the people we come into contact with. One assembly I remember vividly contained this question – would you rather see an older doctor who was covered in blood and muck, but who was very experienced. Or a young doctor, fresh out of college, who was wall presented. I can’t speak for my peers, but give me the doctor who has been doing it for a while! Experience counts in so many places. But, as Christians, w...

Send us a text How often do we learn to become comfortable with the uncomfortable? Pain is a brilliantly designed tool, that God gave to us for our own protection! It’s been said that if we didn’t feel pain when a stone got in our shoe, we’d keep going until our feet had been permanently damaged – that pain is a warning that we need to do something. But we can, often so very slowly, become accustomed to things that we really shouldn’t accept as ok! A little like a frog in water – if it’s boiling...

Send us a text We all know the game spot the difference. Sometimes those differences can be so subtle, they can appear almost identical. But look long enough, and you’ll start to see the difference. The longer you look at the two images, the more they can look the same. But if we compare to just one of them, those differences start to stand out! It’s like with spotting counterfeit money – we check what the genuine stuff looks like, and the fake stuff starts to stand out. And it’s like this in li...

Send us a text Andy B starts a 6 part series of Andy B 2 Minute Videos, all because he replaced a bike part, and God revealed many ways in which this part can teach all of us about life! Andy B’s mountain bike came second hand, and happens to have had the wrong part fitted. For 6 years Andy B struggled with issues, before finally replacing this one little part. It’s an important part for sure, because it’s the bit that selects the gear on the back wheel of a bike! But how often do we get stuck d...

Send us a text This is Part 2, of a 3-part Teaching series on Prayer and Faith. Starting out the real basics of Prayer, Andy B takes a good look at what Prayer is. He also looks at when we should pray, how we should pray. He also answers the question of what we can pray! Returning to the most simplest forms of prayer – conversation – Andy B seeks to show us how prayer is a gift from God, that God desires us to use, because God uses our words to change situations around the world. Andy B also rem...

Send us a text Returning home after a mountain bike ride, Andy B approached a roundabout. We love these in the UK (it seems). Simply put, you come to a junction, with a circle in the middle. You give way to the right, and proceed carefully. But they’re super simple to use! Indicate on your approach, and as long as nothing comes from your right, you have right of way (and of course, the British drive on the correct side of the road – the left – hence giving way to the right!). Anyway, having indi...

But sometimes, flying isn’t helpful. And sometimes that treacle simply needs stirring! So how do know when we’re walking in our own strength, not God’s? And how do we know when something that seems easy, is actually what God is calling us to do? J. John is a great British preacher, who delivered a brilliant message about how th...

Send us a text A wonderful friend of Andy B – Olly, from Nigeria – posted a really funny look at how Africans and Nigerians pray, against how the rest of the world prays. As funny as it is, it also should make all Christians a little uncomfortable because doesn’t it wonderfully illustrate how we can come to God ourselves? We come at God, reminding Him of His failings; how God has not done what we expected or told Him He should do; how He really needs to trust us ‘cos we’ve got this and just need...

Send us a text Modern Christianity has skewed how we see God and the devil. It has skewed God into some sort of best mate or pal. And we absolutely should see God as always approachable. But we should do so, seeing Him with the respect we’d have for an earthly father, than just a mate. In the same way, we’ve seen modern Christianity skew our perspective on our enemy - the devil.; that we somehow have power over him, which we, of course do not. Any power that can be exercised over the devil, come...

Send us a text Andy B was having a little quiet time with God, and was reading Isaiah 66. In the second verse of this scripture, God tells us the sort of people He is looking to. This comes just after we’re reminded of how God made the universe and everything in it, during the first 144 hours (6 days) of the universe. But, as spectacular as all of that is, and all of creation - that is nothing, compared to how God will look to those who believe in Him, have a healthy respect and reverence of Him...
