This week on the podcast, we’re joined by another one of our Goodlife All Stars—Hannah Bartle.
Hannah brings a powerful message centered on Communion—exploring how, through prayer and the act of breaking bread, we’re drawn into deeper connection with God and with one another. It’s a heartfelt reflection on unity, presence, and spiritual intimacy.

On Sunday, Mike Hardie shared with us one his final messages as lead paster at Goodlife. If you've missed that update you can find it here: In his message, Mike is revisiting the idea of "Thank God You're Here", a message he shared over 4 years ago about how can we, as followers of christ, be a group of people that when we show up in a situation people go; "Thank God You're Here".
This sermon takes a look at 2 Kings 6 which demonstrates the God of everyday problems and that to live in the way of Jesus is to show up and be a presences that says:
- You're not alone in this struggle
- Your problem matters to God
- Help is available
- Restoration is possible
- This community cares about you

On Sunday, Mike shared a beautiful message about The Shema and how Jesus creates a radical combo of new and old teaching that all law and prophets hang on 2 things:
1. Love the lord our God with all of our Heart, Soul, Mind & Strength
2. Love our neighbour as we love ourself
Mike highlights how Jesus is reshaping The Shema and a passage from Leviticus as a radical combo - A THEOLOGICAL EARTHQUAKE!
"You can't love someone you can't see without loving someone you can see."
- How do you love an invisible God?
- Who is your neighbour?

On Sunday was our annual COMPASSION SUNDAY gathering where we highlight our partnership with Compassion to release children from poverty in Jesus' name. It was a fantastic morning where Ryan Smith (Our local compassion correspondent) shared about hope in the neighbourhood.
"God's not dead, he's bread" - Sister Mary Conita
Ryan draws from Matthew 15 and the feeding of the 5000 with 7 loaves of bread and 2 small fish. Like Jesus, we need to recognise the people in need and trust God to provide. See the Need Feel the Need Meet the Need More Left Over

In Mike's Message today he is continuing to share on 'Heart Health' as found in Proverbs 4:23, "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." And in this message focuses on envy & desire.
"You don't rid envy by trying harder- you heal by bringing it into the light and yielding to the spirit."
Mimetic Process-
1. Imitation (I want what they want)
2. Rivalry (competition)
3. Conflict (tearing each other down)
4. Scapegoating ( blame someone else)
5. False Peace (we feel better... until the cycle starts again)
Practices (the way of the spirit)-
1. Honest Prayer
2. Gratitude
3. Celebration
4. Sacrificial Love
