Are we truly drawing near to God? This message challenges us to examine our prayer life and relationship with the Divine. The central theme revolves around James' profound statement: 'If you draw near to God, He will draw near to you.' This simple 'if' becomes a pivotal point in our spiritual journey. We're reminded that prayer isn't just about asking for things, but about communion with God Himself. The stark contrast between the limited access to God in the Old Testament and our newfound privilege in the New Testament is eye-opening. We now have a 'new and living way' into God's presence daily. This message urges us to wake up a little earlier, to breathe heaven's air, and to make prayer the lungs of our Christian life. Are we willing to take up this challenge and experience the transformative power of drawing near to God?   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

Feel like going to church is a chore? Or you haven't been in a couple of years? When the fire of faith fades, many Christians find themselves simply going through the motions — attending church, serving, or joining groups out of duty rather than desire. In this powerful message, Ps Phil Pringle shares how the Holy Spirit can reignite your passion for God and renew your love for His house.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store

In John 15, we encounter the profound metaphor of Jesus as the True Vine, inviting us to 'abide' in Him. This powerful imagery challenges us to examine our spiritual connection and fruitfulness. Are we truly rooted in Christ? The passage reminds us that our ability to bear fruit isn't automatic – it requires intentional effort and a deep, abiding relationship with Jesus. Just as a vine dresser prunes branches for greater yield, God may 'cut back' areas of our lives that aren't productive. This process, while sometimes uncomfortable, ultimately leads to greater spiritual growth and impact. As we reflect on this, let's consider: What areas of our lives might God be pruning? How can we more fully abide in Christ, allowing His life-giving power to flow through us and produce abundant fruit?   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store

Are we truly aware of who we are in Christ? This message delves into Mark 4:35-41, the story of Jesus calming the storm. It reminds us that when Jesus says, 'Let's go to the other side,' we can trust we'll get there, no matter how tumultuous the journey. The disciples' fear in the face of the storm contrasts sharply with Jesus' peaceful sleep, highlighting our tendency to forget our God-given authority. This story serves as a wake-up call for us to recognize the power we have through Christ. Just as Jesus rebuked the wind and calmed the sea, we too can speak to our circumstances with authority. The message challenges us to move from fear to faith, asking ourselves why we're fearful and how we can activate our faith in challenging situations. It's a stirring reminder that we are more than mere mortals – we have the Holy Spirit within us and the authority of Christ at our disposal.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the transformative phrase 'But God' found throughout Scripture. The focal point is Acts 13:29-30, which tells us that despite all opposition, 'But God raised him from the dead.' This simple yet profound statement encapsulates the essence of our faith - no matter how dire our circumstances, God's power prevails. We're encouraged to remember the 'God factor' in our lives, trusting that He is bigger than any challenge we face. The message beautifully illustrates how God's love and power can overcome even death itself, as seen in Jesus' resurrection. This truth isn't just historical; it's a living reality that can impact our daily lives, reminding us to have unwavering faith in God's ability to intervene in our most desperate situations.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

In this powerful exploration of 2 Corinthians 5:17, we're challenged to embrace the transformative power of Christ in our lives. The message reminds us that becoming a 'new creation' isn't just about receiving blessings, but about fundamentally changing our approach to life. We're encouraged to shift from a self-centered faith to one that puts God first, understanding that true fulfilment comes not from what we receive, but from how we align ourselves with God's will. This perspective shift invites us to hold worldly possessions lightly, finding our ultimate satisfaction in God's presence. As we internalise this truth, we may find ourselves naturally becoming more thankful, generous, and honest - hallmarks of a Christ-centered life. T his message invites us to reflect: Are we truly living as new creations, or are we still clinging to old patterns?   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

Have we ever considered the secret to miracles? In this powerful message, we explore the story of the Shunammite woman from 2 Kings 4:8-10, who teaches us a profound lesson: making room for God in our lives. This well-to-do woman's decision to create a special space for the prophet Elisha led to an unexpected miracle - the gift of a child. Her story challenges us to examine our own lives and ask: Are we too busy for God? Have we made space for Him to dwell, not just visit? The message unpacks the symbolism of the room's contents - a lamp, table, chair, and bed - representing illumination, nourishment, rest, and dreaming with God. By intentionally creating these spaces in our daily lives, we open ourselves to God's transformative power and miracles. This story reminds us that every miracle, including our spiritual lives, needs reviving. It encourages us to return to our first love, to make time for God, and to persevere in prayer, even when miracles don't happen instantly.

Are we ready for the future God has planned for us? Isaiah 40:3-5 challenges us to prepare the way for the Lord, even in our personal wildernesses. This powerful message reminds us that God has already been to our future and promises it's brighter than our present. But how do we prepare when we're in valleys or facing mountains? The key is to keep our eyes on God's glory, even when our current circumstances seem bleak. We're encouraged to dream big and ask God for guidance, understanding that He can do 'exceedingly abundantly above' what we can imagine. This isn't just about positive thinking; it's about aligning our vision with God's and taking action to prepare for His blessings. Are we limiting God with our small thinking, or are we preparing vessels for His abundance?   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

As we celebrate Father's Day, we're reminded of the profound impact fathers have on our lives and faith. This message highlights five key points that resonate deeply with our spiritual journey. First, we're called to appreciate the often unsung role of fathers, acknowledging their strength, perseverance, and unique contributions to family life. The scripture 'Well done, good and faithful servant' (Matthew 25:23) takes on new meaning as we apply it to the faithful service of fathers. Second, we're encouraged to let go of regrets, embracing Paul's wisdom in Philippians 3:13-14 to forget what's behind and press forward. This ties into the story of Jesus and the woman caught in adultery, reminding us that God's grace overcomes our past mistakes. Third, we're urged to honour our own parents, fulfilling the commandment in Ephesians 6:2 and reaping its promised blessings. Fourth, fathers are called to be spiritual leaders, acting as priests in their households and passing down stories of God's faithfulness as commanded in Psalm 78. Finally, we're challenged to invest in our relationships, turning our hearts to our children as prophesied in Malachi 4:5-6. This message invites us to reflect on our roles as parents, children, and followers of Christ, encouraging us to cultivate love, faith, and legacy in our families.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

The Holy Spirit is not just a concept, but a transformative power in our lives. As we explore Acts 1:8, we're reminded that receiving the Holy Spirit equips us with divine strength, turning ordinary individuals into extraordinary servants of God. This power isn't meant to strip us of our identity, but to enhance and empower us beyond our natural abilities. Just as power-assisted steering revolutionised driving, the Holy Spirit offers 'power-assisted' living, enabling us to navigate life's challenges with divine guidance. We're called to embrace this power, allowing it to fill us completely, leaving no room for anxiety or fear. The Holy Spirit's presence promises a metamorphosis in our lives - from glory to glory - transforming us like caterpillars becoming butterflies. This spiritual empowerment isn't just about personal growth; it's about equipping us to be effective witnesses for Christ in our immediate surroundings and to the ends of the earth.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

The Holy Spirit is not just a concept, but a vibrant, active presence in our lives as believers. This message unpacks the multifaceted role of the Holy Spirit, revealing Him as our regenerator, transformer, and constant companion. We're reminded that the Spirit is our encourager, counselor, and strength-giver, always cheering us on in our faith journey. The message draws from various scriptures, particularly highlighting Jesus' words in Acts 1:8 about receiving power when the Holy Spirit comes upon us. This power manifests in numerous ways - from giving us boldness in the face of fear to helping us understand the Scriptures more deeply. As we reflect on these truths, we're challenged to recognize and lean into the Holy Spirit's work in our lives, allowing Him to shape us more into Christ's image daily. This message invites us to embrace the Holy Spirit's presence, seeing Him not as a distant force, but as an intimate partner in our spiritual growth and daily walk with God.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

Are we tapping into the true power available to us as believers? This message challenges us to recognise that our own abilities are not enough to fulfil God’s calling on our lives. Just as Jesus himself did not perform miracles until after being baptised in the Holy Spirit, we too need this divine empowerment. The scripture in Acts 1:8 reminds us that we ‘shall receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon us.’ This power is not just for show – it is to enable us to be effective witnesses for Christ in our families, neighbourhoods, and beyond. The parallel drawn between being filled with the Spirit and intoxication is intriguing, highlighting how it can break down our inhibitions, increase our boldness, and amplify our joy and generosity. As we journey in faith, let us not settle for being ‘underwhelmed’ Christians, but instead seek to be overwhelmed by God’s presence, allowing His power to flow through us in remarkable ways.

In this powerful exploration of Revelation 22:1-2, we dive into the symbolism of the river of life. This pure, crystal-clear river flowing from God's throne represents the life-giving power of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Just as trees planted by this river bear abundant fruit, we too can flourish when we stay connected to God's presence. The message challenges us to be 'sponges' rather than 'stones' in this river - soaking up God's truth and love rather than letting it flow around us. We're reminded that as believers, we're called to be sources of life, healing, and refreshment to others, bearing fruit in multiple areas of our lives. This powerful imagery invites us to reflect on how we're positioning ourselves in relation to God's life-giving flow and how we can become conduits of His blessing to the world around us.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the transformative power of laughter and joy in our spiritual lives. The story of Sarah and Abraham, who laughed at God's promise of a child in their old age, teaches us that nothing is too hard for the Lord. This narrative encourages us to shift from laughter of disbelief to laughter of faith, embracing God's seemingly impossible promises. The speaker emphasizes that joy is not just a byproduct of faith, but a vital component of our spiritual strength. We're challenged to cultivate joy in our lives, even amidst difficulties, as a testament to our trust in God's faithfulness. This message is particularly relevant for those facing challenging circumstances, reminding us that choosing joy can be an act of faith that opens doors to God's blessings and miracles in our lives.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

In our fast-paced world, we're constantly bombarded with distractions that can derail us from our true purpose. This message challenges us to focus on 'one thing' - a singular commitment to following Christ. Drawing from Paul's words in Philippians 3:13, we're reminded that forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead is crucial for our spiritual growth. The story of Martha and Mary in Luke 10:40-42 further illustrates this point, showing us that while service is important, sitting at Jesus' feet and prioritizing our relationship with Him is the 'good part' that cannot be taken away. As we navigate life's many choices, we're encouraged to set boundaries, declutter our lives, and resist the fear of missing out (FOMO). By doing so, we can live with intention, focusing on what truly matters in God's eyes.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

Psalm 103 invites us to explore the profound blessings God bestows upon His children. This beautiful scripture reminds us to focus on the positive aspects of our spiritual journey, encouraging us to 'bless the Lord' with all that we are. The psalmist highlights five incredible benefits: forgiveness of sins, healing of diseases, redemption from destruction, crowning with loving-kindness, and renewal of youth. These gifts speak to God's all-encompassing love and care for us. As we meditate on these blessings, we're challenged to shift our perspective from life's challenges to the abundant grace we receive daily. This psalm serves as a powerful reminder that our thinking shapes our reality, and by dwelling on God's goodness, we open ourselves to experience more of His blessings in our lives.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store 

Are we truly tapping into the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives? This powerful message explores the transformative role of the Holy Spirit, drawing a fascinating parallel between the Old Testament's giving of the law and the New Testament's day of Pentecost. On Mount Sinai, 3,000 people died when Moses brought down the tablets of stone. In stark contrast, at Pentecost, 3,000 people came alive in Christ when the Holy Spirit descended. This comparison vividly illustrates the life-giving nature of the Spirit versus the letter of the law. As ministers of the Spirit, we're called to bring life, not condemnation. The message challenges us to cultivate a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit through dedicated time in God's presence. By doing so, we can experience His guidance, teaching, and empowerment in our daily lives and ministry.

In this powerful message, we're invited to explore the profound depths of Christian love and reconciliation through the lens of Paul's letter to Philemon. This short but impactful book of the Bible teaches us about the transformative power of God's grace and the importance of forgiveness in our relationships. We see how Paul, writing from prison, appeals to Philemon on behalf of Onesimus, a runaway slave who has become a Christian. This narrative beautifully parallels Christ's intercession for us before God the Father. Just as Paul asks Philemon to receive Onesimus as he would receive Paul himself, Jesus presents us to God as His own. The message challenges us to consider: How can we extend this same grace and forgiveness to others in our lives? It reminds us that our transformation in Christ should lead us from being 'unprofitable' to 'profitable' in God's kingdom, impacting the world around us positively. This teaching encourages us to see the potential for good even in difficult circumstances, trusting that God can use challenging situations for His greater purpose.   Find a C3 Church Near You: https://www.c3churchglobal.com   If you want to give to help C3 Church Global plant new churches around the world, head to https://www.c3churchglobal.com/giving   Follow Me On Social Media: https://www.youtube.com/@Philpringle?sub_confirmation=1  https://instagram.com/philpringle https://www.facebook.com/psphilpringle https://www.tiktok.com/@philpringl https://twitter.com/philpringle    Purchase a copy of my books today: https://philpringle.com/store
