He looks at the account of David conquering Goliath and shares six principles that giant slayers live by that make them victorious over the challenges they face. God uses our battles to shape us into the likeness of Jesus. Let us rely on His ways, knowing that the battle is the Lord’s. This...

10 Marriage Q&A
The marriage covenant reflects Christ’s relationship to the church. However, are our marriages reflecting God’s design? Andrew Selley talks to Gareth Burley from Kingfisher FM about how marriage impacts the church and the role church leaders need to play in marriages. Many people are struggling because they do not know God’s ways—He desires a restoration of His standard for marriage. Through good teaching and compassionate pastoring, marriages can be restored to reflect Jesus to a broken world. This is a Four12 Podcast. To get your copy of...

Knowing the Father
“What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” -AW Tozer Our view of God shapes every area of our lives, from how we invest our money to raising our children. However, we often create an image of God based on our experiences and biases. In this message, Daniel Barnard unpacks who God says He is, starting with His name: Yahweh. We are reminded of the Father’s character—one who desires to forgive, is slow to anger, compassionate and full of mercy. All we need to do is respond t...

How to Properly Interpret What We Read or Hear
Are you reading the Bible through the right lens? In this message, Andrew Selley unpacks how to properly interpret Scripture, explaining how we can often misapply Old Testament promises by taking them out of context or covenant, misunderstand the language, or misjudge either who God is or what He is trying to teach us. Andrew encourages us to grow in our intimacy with Jesus by reading the Bible in order to encounter Him, not just to increase our knowledge.

The Church Is the Proper Life Priority of the Christian
What if the greatest threat to God’s plan for your life is your priorities? In this message, Andrew Selley calls us to realign our lives with God's priority: His church. When we get our priorities right, we stop opposing what God wants to do and start becoming part of His eternal plan. Our lives are not about personal success or comfort, it’s about giving ourselves fully to what Jesus loves most: His people, His house, and His mission to disciple nations.

Thief in the Night
Are we living in anticipation of Jesus’ return at any moment? He is coming back as a thief in the night, no one knows the time, therefore we must live in a state of readiness (Matthew 24:34-44). Here, Kevin Aldridge teaches us what this readiness looks like and how we can make sure we stay vigilant. Those who endure to the end will be saved—therefore, we must be steadfast, immovable and always abounding in the work of the Lord.

Does the Law of God Apply to Me?
God gave the Israelites His law to reveal His standard for holy living. But now that Christ has come and we live under the new covenant, does that law still apply—and if so, how? In this message, Andrew Selley shows how Jesus fulfilled the law without abolishing it. God’s call to holiness remains, but now we live it out through Christ, being inwardly transformed by His Spirit. Andrew unpacks the purpose and ongoing relevance of God’s moral law, and how believers are empowered to walk in it—not through outward effort, but by grace. Four12 Gl...

Are You Saved?
Martin Luther once said, “Outward salvation shows faith to be present, just as fruit shows a tree to be good.” One of the most important questions to ask ourselves is ‘Am I saved?’ If we truly are, grace from the Lord will transform us. In this message, Andrew Selley exhorts listeners to examine the fruit of salvation in their lives—a life surrendered to Christ will reflect His desires and priorities. Andrew encourages believers not to give up in our battle against our sinful nature, which has eternal significance before God. Scripture makes it clear: to be saved, we must obey...

Are You Ready for Judgement Day?
God has a book of life, and those whose names are written in it will be spared on the great day of judgement (Revelation 20:11–15). But those whose names are not found on God's list will be thrown into the lake of fire. So, how can we be sure our names are written in this book? Andrew Selley explains that even though God went to the cross to save us, salvation must be worked out on earth throughout our lives, as faith without works is dead (James 2:26).

How do we love God with everything? What is the most important thing that a Christian must do?

The Fight for Godliness

God wants us all to grow into resilient believers who walk in humility, integrity, and obedience to Jesus. In this session, Michael d’Offay teaches us that this godliness comes through intentional training, when we continually aim to become more like Jesus.

Why I Believe in the Resurrection
How can we know that Jesus rose from the dead? The Apostle Paul states that if Jesus were not raised from the dead, our faith would be useless (1 Corinthians 15:14). Thus, we know that believing Jesus was resurrected is such a fundamental aspect of our faith, but how can we know it to be true? In this Easter session, Michael d’Offay looks at three arguments that prove that Jesus died and was brought back to life.

The Need to Change to Remain With Jesus
We need to change for Jesus to remain in us. When we give our lives to Jesus, He meets us where we are and the way we are. However, belonging to Him will mean we must change to reflect Him and His Word truthfully. In this session, Andrew Selley encourages saints to allow God to continually work in their hearts and minds, which will transform us into the image of Christ.

This means that God deserves our first fruits, the best of all we have, including our time and our talents.

We are familiar with the Old Covenant God made with Israel, but do we know God wants to be in covenant with us today? In this session, Andrew Selley shows us what covenant means and how binding it is, and ultimately introduces us to the New Covenant Jesus gave His life for.

God, Our Hope
Real hope is only found in Jesus. Hope is an optimistic state of mind, and according to the world, it is a belief that ‘everything is going to be ok.’ Godly hope is different – we find our hope in a Person, not in our circumstances. In this Christmas Day session, Andrew Selley unpacks what hope is according to the Bible. We are reminded that without Jesus, we have no hope, but by placing our hope in Him, we will not be disappointed. To find this hope, we look back at what God has done for us – He se...

When this is done well and in love, it is a secure place for the children. In the same way, there must be discipline exercised in God’s household, as the Bible tells us that what one believer does affects the rest of the Body.

Apostles & Elders
What’s the difference? The Lord has divided His Kingdom into different fields. He then entrusts each of these fields to His chosen leaders – men appointed by the Holy Spirit and recognised by their local churches. These men are gifted to break open new ground and speak into the life of the churches within their field. Those released into the apostolic have an area of authority assigned by the Lord, and they, in turn, work closely with the elders of each local church.

06 Choosing Reliable Men
God is more interested in us than in what we do for Him. In this session, Andrew shares how cracks will be revealed as we grow, especially when we move to new levels of leadership, so we constantly need to be recalibrating.

The Road to Unity | Andrew Selley
God’s desire is for the church to reach, and maintain, unity in the faith. Unity, however, takes hard work and requires each person to put their carnal nature to death. In this session, Andrew reminds us that sometimes ‘the road to unity is paved with war’, through trouble and division, which God allows (and even brings about Himself), to reveal what is inside us and to force us to choose whether we will follow His way or our own. We should expect divisions to increase as the Lord’s return draws near. This is how Jesus purifies His church...

Humility Within the Trinity | Andrew Selley
One of the lesser recognised attributes of God is His humility and willingness to take a lower place to serve. Although Jesus was a King, He entered Jerusalem riding on a lowly donkey. Knowing who He was, He got down and washed the disciples’ feet. Although Jesus Himself is God, He submitted His will to the Father, even to the point of death. Likewise, the Holy Spirit is equally God, yet He always only honours and points us to Jesus. As Christians, we are to imitate God’s humility and gladly take a lower place - using our strengths and...
