When You're Not Sure If God Still Cares

Praying about the same thing for months and starting to wonder whether anyone is listening? Psalm 77 was written by someone in exactly that position. Sharon Edmundson walks through a psalm that never resolves its own question, where the writer runs out of words entirely and is left with groaning, asks whether God has forgotten to be merciful, and then makes a deliberate decision to remember what God has already done. Alongside it, what current mental health research says about the fight in our heads, why the stiff upper lip was never faith, and three specific things to do when you are in the middle of it.

Why Jesus Tells Worried People to Go Bird Watching
Worry is the background noise of modern life, so it's striking that Jesus tells anxious people to look at the birds and the wildflowers. In this talk from the Jesus the Revolutionary series, Sharon walks through Matthew 6:25-34, showing how creation is evidence of a generous God who provides, and why seeking His kingdom first frees us from the endless chase for security. With honest stories of provision, suffering and trust, plus a reminder to take life one day at a time, it's an invitation to stop striving and start trusting the One who feeds the birds.

Genesis
23 March 2025 · Sharon Edmundson
Is the Christian God Cruel (Genesis Part 12)
Is the God of the Bible cruel? Sharon Edmundson tackles one of Scripture's most challenging stories – Abraham's near-sacrifice of Isaac – revealing how this passage actually demonstrates God's radical difference from ancient pagan deities. While other gods demanded child sacrifice, the true God provided an alternative, foreshadowing Jesus' ultimate sacrifice. During Conversation Street, the discussion explores surrender, testing, and living counter-culturally. Rather than a troubling tale of divine cruelty, this story reveals a God who makes a way when there seems to be none – the God who gives rather than takes.

Finding Peace When Your Mind Won't Shut Up (Philippians #8)
Anxiety affects millions of people, and Sharon Edmundson knows it well. From teenage panic about public speaking to physical symptoms that sent her to A\&E, she's experienced the whole spectrum.

This isn't about never feeling worried again \- it's about having tools that partner with God to manage anxiety when it strikes. Drawing from Philippians 4:6-7 and her own journey, Sharon offers a practical three-step process that transforms how we handle racing thoughts and middle-of-the-night worries.

Cultivating a Faithful Heart: Lessons from God's Steadfastness
What if faithfulness isn't about gritting your teeth and hanging on? Sharon Edmundson explores how true faithfulness flows from receiving, not achieving.

Find Courage With God's Promise
Does the news leave you feeling fearful? Sharon Edmundson unpacks what the Bible says about courage through Paul's story in Acts 23. Courage isn't the absence of fear—it's a choice to face what frightens us. And the reason we can be courageous is never that we're enough on our own. It's always because of God's presence and his promises. From a boy in an MRI scanner to Mary and Joseph facing shame, courage comes from knowing God stands near us.

Did Jesus really rise from the dead or is it all one big fairy tale?
It is the question at the heart of the entire Christian faith. We examine the historical evidence, the arguments for and against, and why the resurrection of Jesus remains one of the most debated events in human history. Whether you are a sceptic or a believer, the evidence deserves a fair hearing.

Is the loving God of the New Testament the same as the angry God of the Old Testament?
It is a question that has troubled readers for centuries. The God of the Old Testament can seem harsh and angry, while the New Testament paints a picture of grace and love. We ask whether these are really two different portrayals or whether something else is going on entirely.
