Cultivating a Grateful Heart | Nkandu Kanjela

This teaching session is focused on the theme of gratitude and thankfulness. The speaker begins with a prayer of confession and consecration, asking God for mercy and reverence.

The instruction encourages listeners, referred to as "impactors," to deeply read and study the Bible to gain wisdom for life decisions and resist worldly temptations, emphasizing that giving thanks in every situation is the will of God, as indicated in scripture like 1 Thessalonians 5:18. The teaching concludes by urging repentance, acknowledging God's sovereignty, and growing one's faith, even when facing life's inevitable difficulties.

When Life Is Not Going Your Way | Bondo Sianga

In a sermon titled "Gratitude in Every Season," the speaker specifically focuses on the message of maintaining gratitude even when life is challenging or disappointing. The speaker references 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 ("Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances") as the foundational scripture for understanding that gratitude is a choice, not a feeling. The sermon utilizes personal anecdotes, congregational interactions regarding resolutions, and biblical examples—such as Paul and Silas in prison—to illustrate that trusting God builds strength and shifts one's focus from personal problems to God’s faithfulness and character. Practical steps are offered, encouraging listeners to "run to God," write down daily thanksgivings, and replace the "why me" mentality with asking what God intends to accomplish in a difficult season.

God is not Impressed by your Vibe | Parable of the Two Sons | Constance Kaliwanda

The speaker focuses on the theme of obedience and sincerity in faith. The speaker uses a personal anecdote about growing up in a strict household where obedience stemmed from fear of punishment, contrasting it with the mature faith that responds to God out of honor. The central message, titled "God's Not Impressed by Your Vibe," argues that true faith is demonstrated through action and surrender rather than mere spiritual appearance or "vibe." This concept is explored through the parable of the two sons (Matthew 21:28-32), where one son outwardly agreed to obey but failed to act, while the other initially refused but later repented and did the father's will. The sermon stresses that repentance is greater than reputation and warns against hypocrisy, encouraging listeners to live lives where their private actions align with their public confession.

The Parable of the Mustard Seed | Subilo Singogo

This sermon or teaching session centered on wisdom from the parables of Jesus, specifically focusing on the Parable of the Mustard Seed. The teacher begins by referencing a previous lesson on persistent prayer before introducing the day's theme: that internal capacity is more important than external appearance. This point is illustrated through a series of practical object lessons and further reinforced by citing several Bible verses, including Matthew 13:31-32, Ezekiel 36:26-27, and Colossians 1:27, which highlight that Christ's spirit residing within believers provides their true worth and power. Historical examples, such as David's anointing and his confrontation with Goliath, and the humble appearances of John the Baptist and Jesus of Nazareth, are used to argue that God values the heart and inner potential over worldly attributes like appearance, wealth, or status. The session concludes with a call for attendees to accept Christ to realize this spiritual power within them.

Parable of the Talents | Kachana Mwenda

The speaker in this episode presents an engaging sermon, opening with a prayer and a lighthearted check-in with the Impactors to foster a comfortable learning environment. The speaker introduces a new sermon series focusing on "Wisdom from the Parables of Jesus," emphasizing the importance of active participation by encouraging note-taking and Bible use. A parable is defined as a short, simple story with a deeper spiritual truth, designed to prompt deep thought and inquiry rather than spoon-fed answers. The sermon then uses an acted-out rendition of the Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-30) to illustrate key lessons, followed by an interactive discussion where the impactors share their interpretations. The speaker further unpacks the parable, highlighting that "talents" represent God-given resources, opportunities, and gifts, and that God provides each person according to their ability, never more than they can handle. The core message stresses the importance of maximizing one's talents, avoiding comparison with others, and overcoming fear and laziness to live out one's purpose. The sermon concludes with a final prayer, encouraging the Impactors to embrace their gifts and walk in faith.
