BANTER - The New Covenant

Welcome to BANTER; the weekly podcast where we unpack Sunday's sermon.
This week we explore the richness of the word "covenant", and the significance of "cutting a covenant", how the Old covenant is more gracious than we assume, and that perhaps the New covenant is more demanding than we realise.

The New Covenant - Mitch Levingston

31 “The days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah. 32 It will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because they broke my covenant, though I was a husband to them," declares the Lord. 33 “This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel after that time,” declares the Lord. “I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

BANTER - A Theology of Gardening & A Symbol of Hope

Welcome to BANTER; the weekly podcast where we unpack Sunday's sermon.
We're doing something a little cheeky today as we sandwich 2 BANTER's together into one deliciously super-sized-double-loaded-with-the-lot meal deal.
M&M reflect on the significance of land ownership in the Old Testament, symbols of hope that can become unhelpful to our faith and how to practically invest in the next generation of our church family.

A Theology of Gardening - Murray Lambert

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11)
The prophet Jeremiah writes these words to a nation in the middle of exile. As refugees of war, living in a foreign land where they're treated as second-class citizens, God tells them to  “5 Build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat what they produce." 
Why is God telling Israel to plant gardens of all things in the midst of exile?

BANTER - The Fall of Babylon

The Fall of Babylon - Mitch Levingston

In Jeremiah's time Babylon was an impenetrable city, an all-powerful empire which seemed indestructible. Yet God promised this evil empire would be overthrown and justice would prevail.
Is there an issue or situation that feels too big for God to handle? Mitch reminds us that even the great city of Babylon was no match for the power and justice of God.

A Symbol of Hope - Mitch Levingston

Jeremiah's purchase of land on the eve of the Babylonian invasion was not a "wise investment" by human standards. But the symbol of hope it represented was a powerful reminder of God's promise for restoration in the midst of suffering.
What's your symbol of hope that keeps you focused on God's promise to restore all things?

BANTER - The Yoke of Yahweh

Welcome to BANTER; the weekly podcast where we unpack Sunday's sermon.
M&M chat about more strategies to discern whether prophecy is aligned with God's voice, how we should view the rise and fall of national empires in our present age, and what the Godly response is when prophecy turns out to be incorrect.

The Yoke of Yahweh - Mitch Levingston

How do we discern false prophets? It's an issue that's been around ever since there have been prophets. Mitch provides some helpful guardrails to help and points towards an unlikely image for how we are to trust in and rely on our God Yahweh in all seasons.
