Christ Church London Podcast

Lars looks at the biblical guidance for people who have an experience of having lost inner territory in times of pressure.

For our first Sunday of 2025, David Stroud shares some of the key lessons from the previous year, and in particular what he learned from his father’s passing. He looks at how the reality of Jesus and the resurrection transforms our grief, and fills us with renewed hope.

Andy Tilsley spoke at our Sutton Christmas Carol service on God being found in the small and ordinary.

Andy concludes our ‘Walking with God’ series by looking at our destination as followers of Jesus. Looking at the book of Revelation, we see how knowing where we’re heading in the future helps change our lives and journey in the present.

This week, Joel teaches from the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19, looking at how our journey of faith leads through inevitable walls that invite us to experience God’s unconditional love, and his deep, inner transformation and healing.

This week, Andy explores what it means to ‘walk by the Spirit’ (Gal 5:16) as we surrender to Jesus’ way of life. God fills every follower of Jesus with the Holy Spirit, who is the ultimate source of our transformation. Yet we also have a role to daily ‘keep in step’ with his presence to see this shape our everyday lives.

To start our autumn series, ‘Walking with God’, we begin by looking at our identity and calling as followers of Jesus. Catherine teaches from Ephesians 1, exploring how our truest identity shapes where and how we begin our journey of faith.

This week Joel looks at what’s ahead as we establish our church around three core values: Presence, Formation, and Mission. Over the next few weeks, we’ll unpack what each of these age-old principles mean for us as we seek to follow Jesus together, for the renewal of London.

This week we celebrated Christ Church London turning 20! Andy reflected on our journey so far, and looked at what’s ahead as we establish our church around three core values: Presence, Formation, and Mission. Over the next few weeks, we’ll unpack what each of these age-old principles mean for us as we seek to follow Jesus together, for the renewal of London.

This week, Raph looks at how the Psalms can inspire wonder.

In this talk, Lou shares what we can learn from David’s lament in Psalm 6 as a model for dealing with our own sadness. 

This week, Grace Bolaji teaches from Psalm 106, and looks at how the psalms direct us away from life alone to life together.

This week Adnan teaches from Psalm 4, exploring how the psalms give us a way of transforming our experience of anger as the people of God.

This week Natalie teaches from Psalm 6, looking at how psalms of lament provide a healthy and biblical way for the people of God to process pain and sorrow.

Andy unpacks Psalm 107, which encourages ‘The redeemed of the Lord to tell their story.’ Why are so many of the psalms about the story of God’s people? What’s our story, and how should it shape our lives today? We look at the importance of remembering our story, and how through prayer we can resist the false narratives which swirl around us every day. 

Duncan Campbell defines revival as a community saturated with the presence of God and the restoration of New Testament Christianity in times of decline. In this talk, Joel encourages us to have the faith that revival is possible in London, and that every person has a part to play.

New seasons are opportunities from God to use us in new ways but they can also be tricky to navigate. As Christ Church London enters into a new season, David considers lessons he has learnt which can be applied at both an individual level and for us as a church as whole. 

Andy talks from 1 Corinthians 1 – a passage that was first preached at Christ Church London 20 years ago – and looks at two things which we hope will shape us as a church as we head into a new chapter. Andy explores the themes of weakness and holiness in Corinthians, and what it means for us as a church in the season ahead.
