In this session we go deeper into the meaning of building a first floor and the difference between that and the ground floor. Using Matthew 16 we talk about the difference between finding your life and losing it. This is all in the context of ministry calling as a Christian. Of course if this is your first look at inner discipling, this may not make complete sense to you and I would encorage you to look at the full playlist called TRANSFORMED. If you feel you would like to know more or your Church would like to run te course, please contact us on info@buildingrecovery.org We have a team that will fully support you in running your course.

Transformed Module Four Session One
In this session we embark upon the final part of the journey, and the most exciting! Yes, we are looking at building our first floor. Having done our planning, built our foundation (on the rock, not the sand), and having built our ground floor, we are now heading into the upper room of our Ministry calling. Still working at our own pace and still not being told what to do. In this session you will hear about addiction and reverse addiction and the way that they shape our system and lead us into inner discipling. Also there is a section on what the stairs consist of, as well as discussion with the participants. Contact us for training on info@buildingrecovery.org Please consider passing this on to anyone who might benefit.

Transformed - Module Three - Session Four
In this session we spend some time connecting the ideas of the spirit with the flesh and the flesh with the spirit. This was done to ensure that the elements of spiritual progress do not become disconnected with earthly problems. If we allow this disconnection then challenges can become temptations rather than trials. In other words, we can shrink rather than grow. So Challenges are going to happen (John 16:33), our job is to make sure that we turn the challenge into a trial, not a temptation. In therapy this is thought of as staying intentional not drifting into victimhood. This helps us to nderstand how to make our 'normal lives' spiritually motivated (Phil 4:13). We also inspired some great sharing from the participants around their experience of transformation, and their struggles with the flesh.
