On Sunday we were incredibly privileged to have Marjan Beer share with us as a part of our series on JESUS ENCOUNTERS. Marjan is such a wonderful member of our community who has recently been running our Women's Retreats as well as our weekly group Bible Studies. In her message she shared about how she reignited her relationship with Jesus through 2 things:
1. Imagination. Placing yourself in the bible, read the gospels like a novel.
2. Community. Jesus is represented all around us, and how do we represent him to others?

THE PONDERING EPISODES: Have you got thoughts and questions about faith, the bible, church and life in general? Well, so do we! In these episodes we aim to have conversations where we wrestle and embrace all that this journey of faith brings. Do we have all the answers? Nope, but we are willing to ponder the big and the small things and have honest chats that may bring about new ways of thinking.

Welcome to our weekly Podcast! Today Greg has been left with teaching duties whilst most of the leadership are away. Our Lead Paster Mike left him to talk on "God, Faith, Life, Family... or whatever!"
In this teaching Greg shares how he has been learning that God waits for us, a god who speaks to us.
- God is a wholistic God
- God's voice always aligns with his nature
- Hearing God's voice is about partnership rather than control. Fostering a relational dynamic of faith.
Greg leaves us with the following questions, ask yourself this today and in the following week:
- What are you learning right now?
- What values guide your actions?
- Are you moving towards love for God & others?

For 8 weeks, we are doing the ‘Practicing The Way Of Jesus’ course. A blueprint on spiritual formation and becoming a disciple of Jesus. We hope you can lean in and discover with us what it means to follow Jesus as a way of life, and see formation integrated into our church and us individually.
Mike is wrapping up and sharing on how important Community and Serving is for a life-changing relationship with Jesus as an apprentice not just a consumer.
1. Community & Service shape us to look more like Christ
2. When we serve others we embody Christ's love

Today Ryan Smith is sharing on Rule Of Life. That when we have a vision and a goal we can relax into a strong relationship with God.
1. A rule of life is a means to an end.
2. It's about your whole life.
3. You already have a functional rule of life.
with these thoughts in mind, Ryan offers his advice:
Start where you are, not where you should be
Consistency over intensity
Think subtraction over addition
Be flexible

Join Hannah and her friends as they try to understand what does the voice of God sound like. Through the months of May and June, the Goodlife Church community has been unpacking the Holy Spirit in a series called 'Empowering Presence'. As a part of this we had the privilege of hearing from Rev. Dr. Tania Harris on how to hear the voice of God. It was in her teaching session that our community began to share their own personal journey of listening, asking and waiting for the voice of God.
In reflection, Hannah noticed that so often we hear extravagant, life-changing stories and yet there are so many everyday moments where God speaks to us. In this episode we have tried to capture a broad variety of stories that capture a few of the many different ways of hearing God.
Thanks to Taylah, Ryan, Shane & Emma for sharing their beautiful stories. If you would like to share you're own personal experience hearing the voice of God please DM our socials or email Hannah at hbartle@goodlife.org.au - it doesn't need to be shared on the Podcast if you don't want.
