As we begin a new year, Ps Sue Irwin opens this series with a hopeful and practical message about living free from anxiety. Drawing from Paul’s letter to the Philippians, she reminds us that an anxious life is not fixed by willpower, positive thinking, or better planning, but by a deeper shift in what we believe about ourselves and about God.

Sue gently explores how anxiety is often rooted in identity and misplaced trust, and how peace begins when we learn to live from who we are in Christ rather than striving to become someone through outcomes and achievements. Through Scripture, stories, and clear teaching, she invites us to experience God’s love personally, not just understand it intellectually.

This message is a powerful starting point for the year ahead. It offers a fresh perspective on prayer, spiritual growth, and what it really means to be God’s children. If you are carrying worry, feeling overwhelmed, or longing for a steadier sense of peace, this episode sets a grounding and hope filled tone for 2026.

In this thoughtful and timely message, Ps Rachel Baker speaks into the space many of us find ourselves in at the end of the year. The in between. The moment after Christmas has passed but before the new year has begun. It is a season filled with reflection, expectation, uncertainty, and hope.

Rachel explores why we are so drawn to planning, goal setting, and resolutions, and gently challenges the idea that we are the authors of our own outcomes. Drawing on Scripture and the stories of people who lived in the waiting between promise and fulfillment, she reminds us that God is always at work in these in between seasons. Not rushing us forward, but shaping our hearts and inviting us to trust Him more deeply.

This message is an invitation to pause, to offer our plans to God, and to allow Him to guide what comes next. As the final podcast for 2025, it creates space to reflect, realign, and step into the new year with open hands and a heart ready to listen.

In this encouraging and practical message, Ps Sue Irwin helps us reflect on the year we’ve just lived and shows us how to finish it well, no matter what it has held. As we look back on the highs, the lows, and the moments in between, Sue reminds us that nothing is wasted in God’s hands. Every experience can become a pathway for His blessing when our hearts and minds are aligned with Him.

Using the story of King Jehoshaphat, she explores what it really means to trust God in the face of fear, uncertainty, and overwhelming circumstances. Rather than striving harder or trying to control outcomes, we are invited to realign our thinking, surrender our worries, and learn how worship, gratitude, and faith open the door for God to move.

This message is especially meaningful for anyone feeling weary, anxious about the future, or unsure how to step into the year ahead. It offers hope, perspective, and practical encouragement to trust God more deeply and allow Him to turn valleys into places of blessing.
