Andy B 2 Minute Video, Jesus' Virtual Ministry, S04E059

https://youtu.be/w0j2iqjnquM

A cup of tea with a friend can be a great way of spending our time! Talking to someone, seeing the reaction on their face as we say something, helps steer the conversation. It is invaluable feedback to deepen the relationship.

As a preacher, or as a worship leader, that same feedback is really important - it helps us steer how we say things, or how many times we can get away with repeating that same chorus while we try to remember what the next song was supposed to be, or how we’d agreed - with the other musicians - to seamlessly get to that next song and continue the worship (that last one might just be an Andy B thing).

The BerryBunch

Late Sunday evening here in the UK. What a day! Emotionally overwhelmed from the day in a good way. So much has happened which has a either really challenged me or encouraged me.

Finishing on a positive though.

And our first Sunday PLUS children's discipleship group went well....my favourite thing ever - sharing my excitement of the bible with children 😊

Happy Sunday y'all

Sunday PLUS with Dave the Dog, Proverbs 1, S01E01

https://youtu.be/pdt_3HtQ0vk

Andy B starts us off with the brand new Sunday PLUS by opening the bible to the book of Proverbs, and the very first chapter.

The Bible is exciting and is full of all sorts of things that can help us live better lives and become more like Jesus.

The book of Proverbs was written by King Solomon – the most wise man to ever live, after Jesus of course!

King Solomon is perhaps most well known for telling two women who were arguing about which one of them was the real mother of a baby, to cut that baby in half. Of course, the real mother said no, while the imposter said yes. King Solomon had his answer!

Proverbs teaches us all we need to know gain both knowledge and wisdom – and the difference between the two.

Marriage Matters, It’s A Balancing Act, S01E011

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MgZ2JpaTDs

In this week’s Marriage Matters, Andy B and Jo talk about the importance of honesty in marriage and being gentle. They speak candidly about how we can go from being supportive, kind and loving to our spouse to cruel and unkind and critical if we are not careful.

As always, Andy B steers the episode with scripture and explores the following:

Proverbs 27:5-6
Proverbs 27:17
Proverbs 5:3

Andy B and Jo make the point that there is a need to tell our spouse some difficult truths sometimes, whether it’s as simple as not liking what they wear or disliking their culinary delights or the need for our spouse to slow down, rest or stop working!

There is a balance to be had between being straight on the one hand but being gentle about it on the other.

What is it you do exactly?

Watching – Reading – Listening.

As a family, what we do has changed over the past couple of years since starting the BerryBunch. I thought it might be helpful for some of those who follow what we do to explain a little more about why we do what we do, and what that actually is and how it works and benefits you!

So grab yourself a seat, your favourite drink, and maybe a biscuit or seven (is that just me?) ‘cos this is good stuff and I don’t want to ruin by abbreviating it as I go.

It speaks of God’s provision and faithfulness to us, and all of that despite of us (or perhaps simply because of us)! [READ MORE]

Andy B 2 Minute Video, What’s gone has gone, S04E056

https://youtu.be/4Mz8_t5DqO8

Time. The one sure thing we can be certain of is that time cares not for how we’re doing. It doesn’t go faster when we need it to. And no matter how much we will it, it won’t slow down either.

Times marches ever on!

For our online Ministry we’ve taken to doing the bulk of our weekly filming on a Saturday. It doesn’t take up the whole day, but it saves loads of time overall. We’ve given that day over to filming our work – the editing comes later during the following week.

Sometimes things go well, and sometimes, well, they just don’t! And on our last filming day we watched the time racing away from us while we had to deal with numerous problems that cropped up. By the end of Sunday, our weekend had simply not gone as planned, and we were really tired! [READ MORE]

Andy B 2 Minute Video, when enough is more than enough, S04E0554

https://youtu.be/6nzxHUqczOs

It’s a great thought to seek to only give God our best. But we need to check whether giving God what we have, and making sure that is the best we can offer, doesn’t become assigning human values to what we think God will want from us.

While grabbing some time with Jo, Andy B drove her to work. This meant they had some time together while Jo worked a half day, that they wouldn’t have otherwise had together. [READ MORE]
