    The Full Measure

    What does it mean to give the full measure of ourselves to others? In this message, Pastor Dek Dudfield explores Jesus’ teaching in Luke 6:27–38 and challenges us to consider the measure of love, mercy, forgiveness and generosity we give to those around us. Giving is about far more than money. It is about what flows from our hearts into the lives of others through our words, actions and the way we treat people, even when they have hurt us. Drawing on the generosity of God, Dek reminds us that we have received so much through Jesus and are called to share that same grace with others. Are we giving the bare minimum, or are we allowing God’s love to overflow through our lives? Speaker: Dek Dudfield Key Scripture: Luke 6:27–38

    Other Side

    What are you relying on to give your life security, satisfaction and meaning? In this message, Mike Wilkes takes us into the words of Jesus in Luke 6 and invites us to consider “the other side” of the way we often view life. Our culture can tell us that having enough money, being self-sufficient, enjoying ourselves and gaining the approval of others will bring fulfilment. But Jesus challenges us to look beyond what appears successful on the surface and consider what truly lasts. Mike explores the dangers of self-satisfaction, self-sufficiency, living purely for enjoyment and seeking the applause of others. In contrast, Jesus offers something far greater: a life of purpose, hope and dependence upon Him. The Christian life is not simply about believing something in our heads. It is about knowing God personally and allowing that relationship to shape the way we live. When everything else fades, God offers us a life held securely in His hands. Speaker: Mike Wilkes Key Scriptures: Luke 6:20–26, John 3:16–18, Ecclesiastes 2, John 17:3

    Finding Your Way Back | When Things Have Gone Wrong

    What happens when you know you have got it wrong, perhaps badly? Is there really a way back to God? In this message, Chippo takes us through the story of David in 2 Samuel and his powerful prayer of repentance in Psalm 51. We see how sin can begin with seemingly small compromises and gradually lead us further than we ever intended to go, but David’s story reminds us that failure does not have to be the end of our story. There is a way back. Chippo explores repentance, the consequences of sin, the danger of condemnation, and the incredible mercy, love and compassion of God. David did not excuse or justify what he had done. He acknowledged his sin, turned back to God and asked to be cleansed and restored. No matter how badly you feel you have messed up, your failure does not have to define you. Pick up your Bible again. Pray again. Come back to fellowship. Come back to Jesus. (Key Scriptures: Psalm 51, 2 Samuel 11–12, Romans 7–8)

    Enemies at the Gate - Maintaining The Glow

    In the final part of Series Three of our Healthy Church series, Pastor Mike Wilkes looks at Enemies at the Gate. As Christians, it is important that we recognise the potential threats and challenges that can come against the health and unity of the Church. As believers, we each have a responsibility to prepare our hearts, minds and souls, to remain rooted in biblical truth, and to understand the part we play within the Body of Christ. In this message, Pastor Mike considers how we can remain watchful, spiritually prepared and faithful in protecting the health of the Church.

    Enemies At The Gate - The Truth

    Welcome to Part Three of our Healthy Church series. Pastor Heather Dudfield leads us this morning as we look at the subject of Truth. Increasingly, we live in a world where truth is treated as subjective, shaped by our feelings, our culture, or the latest fashion and trend. Yet we believe that for a church to be truly healthy, it must be firmly rooted in biblical truth. Today, we explore the truth revealed to us in the Bible and consider what we, as a church, believe, hold to, and seek to live by.

    Mountain to Mission

    Welcome to the Excel Church Podcast. This week, we're reflecting on the powerful moments we shared at Excel Conference 2026. Conference weekends often feel like mountaintop experiences, times when God speaks deeply, restores weary hearts, ignites fresh vision, and reminds us of His presence in profound ways. But what happens when the conference ends and everyday life begins again? Together, we'll explore how we take those sacred moments and turn them into mission. How do we carry what God has done in us into the homes we live in, the workplaces we serve in, and the communities He's called us to reach? How do we ensure that inspiration becomes transformation, and encounter becomes obedience? Join us as we discuss how the blessings we receive on the mountaintop were never meant to stay there. They are gifts to be stewarded for the benefit of others, so that the hope, encouragement, and love of Christ overflow from our lives into the world around us. Thanks for joining us. Let's dive in.

    Healthy Church - Mission

    In Part 3 of our Healthy Church podcast series, Heather Dudfield discusses the call for every believer to go and share the message of Jesus. She explores how healthy churches are built by individuals who actively live out and communicate the Gospel in their day-to-day lives — because church is not just something we attend on a Sunday, it is who we are as the body of Christ.

    Healthy Church - Vision

    Earlier this year, Excel Church launched the Healthy Church series, where we explored how we, as Christians and as the body of Christ, all play a vital role in the health and growth of the Church. Now we’re stepping into a brand-new Church Health series, taking a deeper look at who we are as a church and the calling God has placed upon us. In today’s sermon, Pastor Dek Dudfield shares the importance of having a clear vision, a clear purpose, and a clear understanding of where God is leading His Church. We pray this message encourages and strengthens you as we continue building a healthy, Christ-centred church together.

    From Death to Life

    Pastor Dek Dudfield explores one of the greatest realities of the Christian faith — the devastating impact that sin has on our lives, our hearts, and our relationship with God, and the incredible hope found through Jesus Christ. In Death to Life, we journey from brokenness to redemption, uncovering how the sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus made a way for humanity to be restored, forgiven, and truly alive. This is a message of grace, transformation, and the power of the cross to change everything.

    Taking Out the Trash ~ It's time for some decluttering.

    In this week’s podcast, we’re being led by our visiting speaker, Pastor Graham Field, and he’s challenging us to do something powerful — take out the trash. So often as Christians, we focus on what we need to add into our lives — more prayer, more faith, more commitment, more service. But sometimes growth isn’t just about what we put in… it’s also about what we need to remove. What attitudes, habits, thought patterns, or distractions have we allowed to build up? This message invites us to pause, reflect, and clear out what no longer belongs — because a healthy life in Christ isn’t just about addition, it’s also about subtraction. Let’s lean in as Pastor Graham helps us take out the trash and make room for what God truly wants to do in our lives.

    Love the LORD

    So this is a brand-new podcast episode, and this week’s message is brought to us by the wonderful Chipo Mwale. Chippo takes us into the book of Matthew, where we find the religious leaders attempting to trap Jesus with a question: What is the greatest commandment given in the Bible? Jesus responds with clarity and authority — to love the Lord your God and to love others. But what does it really mean to love God with all your heart in today’s world — a world full of noise, pressure, and constant distraction? This episode challenges us to examine our hearts, refocus our devotion, and rediscover what wholehearted love for God truly looks like in the modern day.

    Church Health Starts with Me, Part 4: Living It Out Every Day

    “Welcome back to the podcast, and to the final part of our 2026 preaching series Church Health starts with me. Throughout this series, we’ve talked about getting fixed, understanding that church health starts with you, and feeding on the Word of God. Today, we bring it all together by focusing on living it daily — and facing the challenges that come with it. As part of our 2026 strapline here at Excel Church, ‘Get Fixed for 2026,’ this episode is about moving from inspiration to application. Because a healthy church isn’t built on good intentions alone, but on believers who choose to live out their faith every single day, even when it’s difficult. Real life brings pressure, distractions, and obstacles — but God’s grace empowers us to stay consistent, faithful, and rooted. So join us as we talk honestly about the challenges, and how we can live out a healthy, God-honouring faith daily as we step forward into 2026 together.”
