You will fully enjoy this tour through the heart and journey of Frank Naea. “My journey in this whole revelation has been like going back to school again. If any man thinks they know something, they do not yet know as they ought to. This journey has not just been about learning something new; it has also been a journey of unlearning what I thought I knew. After 30 years of being in Youth With a Mission, youth pastoring and many other things I have done, you have a groove, a way of seeing and doing. I have realized I am still in process; Father is still fathering me in some places I did not know I needed fathering!”Franks opens up about this unlearning and relearning - it will open your heart more for your own adventure with grace, faith and Father.

When Helene speaks, it's as if history itself settles in for a chat. This remarkable nonagenarian, a mother many times over and a friend to the world, unpacks a treasure trove of experiences that promise to enrich and inspire. Her tales whisk you from the storied streets of Edinburgh to the natural splendor of Vancouver, and further still, to the welcoming shores of New Zealand. With every word, she weaves the essence of grace, faith, and the pure exhilaration of adventure through the generations she's touched. The wisdom of her years blossoms into an innovative approach to spirituality, resonating profoundly with the youth and reimagining church for the contemporary seeker.As we turn our gaze inward, the episode becomes a canvas for reimagining the Christian walk. It's a pilgrimage from the rigidity of religious structures to the transformative embrace of Christ's teachings, where the sacred is found in stillness and the gift of the present moment. We delve into the legacy of grace as the bedrock of existence, as Helene's voice urges us to see ourselves as part of a divine lineage, living in the now with hearts wide open to grace. And as we reflect on the eagle's biblical metaphor of soaring resilience, we are reminded of our own capacity for spiritual renewal. Helene's parting wisdom – to balance life's beauty with its trials – is a poignant reminder that it is within community and mutual upliftment that we truly find our wings.

If you have ever enjoyed being in the presence of Helene King, you know it is a rare and special time. You not only experience the grace she walks in, but you can also drink deeply from a voice that draws you into her rich world of history and insights. It aways brings encouragement to those within earshot.Recently Helene spent an evening with an intimate group of friends in a cozy living room where she shared about what she called, “darkness and light”. We were very fortunate to discover afterwards that someone had captured her sharing that evening.Enjoy the gift of Helene as she illuminates the journey from darkness to light, from slavery to freedom, in this message. Helene’s reflective odyssey draws inspiration from timeless wisdom and personal experience that invites us all into the transformative journey.

Sunday with Nolly Mercado - November 5, 2023

It was a gift to have Mark Head with us for our family gathering in October. He shared the story of Joseph from the perspective that reveals the painful reality of a journey through the mess of rejection, betrayal, disappointment and battered hope. What happens when the dream we have been given is obscured by disappointment after disappointment and hope runs out; when we cry out, “If God is with us, then it shouldn’t be like this!”Mark shows us that just like Joseph, God is with us in the midst of tragedy; He is present and active.He sees you right now, He knows you right now, and He loves you right now. He is never far from you. We may even be able to relate with Joseph that “God has made me fruitful in the land of my suffering.”

Thankfulness, The benefits of being thankful - Brant and Jen Reding - October 8, 2023

We believe that this message from Frank Naea will be listened to many times. Frank served in YWAM as a teacher and base leader in New Zealand and the Pacific for 30 years, which included serving as the International President for over three years, but then life took a hard turn.  Frank shares what happened, describing what he calls the most important and transformational reality in his life thus far.  As you listen to the revealing journey God took him on, you will likely discover God has some incredible nuggets for you.  Frank is a gifted communicator, authentic, humble and full of grace.  Please note we had a wee challenge in the recording quality that evening, but the content will not disappoint.

In times of crisis, the enemy wants to bring weakness to your Spirit, soul and body to keep you from moving forward. Yet, amid it, God is faithful to give us the strategy to overcome and see those circumstances overturned. Jesus in us strengthens our Spirit to withstand weakness and fills us with His glory to address our enemies within and without. This message outlines practical guidelines for strengthening your Spirit as you seek His face and allow the Holy Spirit to access your heart.

Jodie and Karl kick off the year with a great word for our UChurch family. Take a listen!

In this message, you'll hear what discernment is, why it's essential for everyone, young or old, to grow in, how it's different from Spiritual Gifts, and how community has a key to growing in discernment.‍Just a note: Marlin takes some time to answer questions at the end. While we did not capture the questions on the audio, we decided to leave the Q&A part in this recording, so you don't miss out on some great additional teaching. (And despite the gaps, you can tell what was asked by the response).

How to Stay in peace and Love in the midst of Conflict.He calls us to pray for our enemies. How do we stay in peace and love in the midst of relational issues, or the conflict we see currently in the world around us. Jen also gives us some guidelines for prayer for the situation in  Ukraine.

We get to hear all about the incredible ways God can touch hearts, regardless of age!

We get to hear from Jen Reding around the invitation He has for us to awaken to awe and wonder. Most of us know the myriads of distractions around us can rob us of the ability to live in the moment and discern what truly lasts. It has been a season where the familiar adage becomes obvious - what you behold, you become. Let’s listen together to what He is encouraging us to behold.

"I believe God is inviting us (and many others around the globe) into a process of becoming renewed (new) wineskins. Our hearts have to be renewed before he can pour new wine into us. This is a process that we need to embrace." - Brant Reding

We get to hear from Jamilah Edwards

Jodie Cardoza shares with us thoughts on what transition looks like when God reveals a new path in our lives and how it can be peaceful and filled with His blessings throughout the way.

One of the greatest joys in our lives is having the opportunity to spend time with someone who has humbly journeyed through more things in life than we have been through ourselves. True eldership is a rare gift that comes from the realities of life’s journey, interwoven with the goodness of God, experienced over many decades.Helene King is one of these ‘gifts’. Most would refer to her as akin to being like a mother. She is well acquainted with the brokenness and pain of the human race, and as such, the love of God flows from her in real depth to all who come across her path. This message shared in October 2021 at a Fatherheart reunion impacted all of us listening - it will encourage and inspire you to the amazing truths yet to be discovered regardless of age.She reminds us that chronological age is but an adventure to discover what she calls her true age, “I’m nine on the inside.”

"What's in the space between the Truth that we believe in and the experience that we live in? And how do we close that gap that can seem like an impassable chasm? Intercession is the Key of the Kingdom that doesn't just bridge the gap, it actually brings truth and experience together.

The real-time adventure of becoming a dad to children is undoubtedly one of the most challenging and rewarding adventures a man encounters in his life. If I was to meet the ‘younger me’, I would want to tell myself everything I have learned so far so that the younger me could be one step ahead of all that which I would face. That’s not possible of course, but we can pass along some of what we have learned to you younger men, so that you may be able to be a few steps ahead.

Jen Reding shares about “Serving from Sonship”. As we are sons, not slaves or servants, do we serve? If so, how is this different than before?

Brant hosts a conversation with community

Rodelyn Macatula shares with us.

It is a battle and often discouragement seeks to steal our desire to discover and pursue this, but we can draw inspiration from other brothers and sisters, present and from the past.

Mama in the house, JEN REDING, shares about the Mother-heart of God.Yup! All those amazing qualities that make mothers unique come straight from the heart of the one who made them.

Nolly originally hails from Colombia, is a mama of 3, grandmother of 7 and author of Papa Love. Ask her what she did last week, and you'll likely be in for a story of spirit-led adventure marked by God's tangible love and the miraculous in action.

Jordhynn Guy and Matt Letkeman and some others will help us dig a little deeper to unpack the significance of the rich tradition and heart behind the Passover meal that has translated into our practice of communion today.

Our very own Dave Kyle shares about stepping into trust and peace through relationship. Who doesn't need a whole lot of peace these days? Bring it, Dave!

This is a short snippet from a very fun family conversation. Enjoy!

The ladies are taking over the usual Sunday gathering time with this women’s ONLY gathering! Please come ready to rest and receive with hearts and hands wide open.
