Abide: John 15:5-6 Much Fruit
In this episode, Lana and Courtney get real and honest on the practical outworkings of bearing much fruit. God has chosen to show Himself on the earth through our fruitfulness, and this only comes by abiding. We must remember that the fruit is not produced in our own strength, but is a positional inheritance when we remain in Him. It is a mindset of availability over ability. Even in the pruning and burning there is an invitation: The more we look at Him, the more we become like Him, the more His love flows out of us.
Abide: John 15:3-4 — Already Cleansed
As Lana and Courtney continue to look at John 15, we see the pruning of the vine, not as a bad thing, but as a cleansing — a healing. Jesus said that He has ALREADY CLEANSED us! And when we understand that we are already forgiven and are totally loved, we can enter into a place of intimacy without judgement. This foundational place is important, as our beliefs shape the way we see and respond to Him. Seeing Him as good is how we bear good fruit. So we choose to remain: continually listening, allowing His love to continually grow us deeper into Him.
Abide: John 15:1-2 — Lifted Up
Season five of our podcast centres on John 15: ‘I am the Vine, you are the branches.’ Join Courtney and Lana as they look at the pruning process through the lens of a loving Father. When we allow Him to be our gardener, He lovingly lifts our branches out of the dirt, so they might bear fruit. In the process, we must remember that God is for us, and He is pruning so that we can commune with Him in deeper ways. It is an invitation to return to first-love fire: to be a people of power and all He has called us to be.
Jacob’s Ladder #6: From Pillow to Pillar
As Lana and Courtney wrap up the series on Genesis 28, they remind us that through Jesus, we no longer just rely on a visitation, but we are in constant communion with God, with no separation.
There is an invitation for God to live in us. Holiness is an overflow of this indwelling and we move from ascension to consecration. As Jacob set up a pillar to honour God, so we become the pillars. It is here in this moment where Jacob said, ‘the Lord is my God,’ even as he wrestled with the promise. And like Jacob, there is something that is formed in that wrestle, which brings us face to face with the magnitude of what God is speaking. It takes us out of our own strength and into total dependance on God. With a determined heart, we declare that we trust in the truth of His promise.
Jacob’s Ladder #5: The Lord is in this Place
As Lana and Courtney journey through the story of Jacob’s Ladder, they come to the verse where Jacob declares, ‘Surely the Lord is in this place and I didn’t even know it.’ This shows us that even ordinary places can become holy places. Places where you have an encounter with God that marks you, and from which you don’t want to leave. Encounters where God turns our face towards His and we see Him eye to eye. It is an invitation to focus: to move forward and to move higher with God.
Jacob’s Ladder #4: In His Presence
Journey with Lana and Courtney, as they themselves encounter God, even while talking about Jacob’s encounter. In this episode we learn that God’s promise was not dependent on Jacob’s actions, for God declared, “I will…” For He is the great I AM. In Jacob’s brokenness and wayward moments, God reveals His grace, as He is the one who leans in close. And it is there In God’s presence that everything changes. In His presence we can do anything. Through the revelation of who He is, there is birthed a courage and boldness to do all He has asked us to do — a courage to believe in the promise and to dream again.
Jacob’s Ladder #3: Building the Generations
Lana Vawser and Courtney Kueck discuss verse 14 of Genesis 28. The promise God gave to Jacob in his dream was not just for him, but for the generations. In this new year, God is speaking about legacy and raising up the next generation: a generation who is not weighed down by past religious expectations, but who is also looking to the older generation for guidance. Just as God called Abraham to live face to face with His presence, so should we, as the generations together, make seeking God’s face our priority.
Jacob’s Ladder #2: Land and Territories
In Jacob’s dream, God reaffirms the promise that He gave to Abraham — and now to Jacob himself — I will give you this land. As we ascend, in 2024, God is calling us higher with Him. God wants to bring us into a place of rest and wonder, in knowing that He is the God who fulfils His promises, not only to us now, but to the generations. In this episode, Lana and Courtney also speak an encouragement to the mothers and grandmothers who have stood and fought for the promises for their families. We should not underestimate the seeds that we plant. As we dive deeper with God, we are building a heritage for the next generation.

Jacob’s Ladder: The Journey Begins
Lana and Courtney begin an exciting new series on the Biblical story of Jabob’s ladder (Genesis 28). They share how Jacob’s dream at Bethel was the beginning of his rebirth and destiny: and they share the spiritual significance of how that relates to us today. The start of 2024 is the beginning of something important. It is a ‘pillow to pillar’ moment, where we — like Jacob — begin to realize who God is and what He is doing around us. There is a new place of rest: the fruit of encounter and transformation, a place of ascension and birthing. God is re-introducing Himself to us in greater ways — to His power, His love and His nature: where the supernatural is going to become even more natural in the coming year.

Lana and Courtney: 2024 — Come Up Here!
In the first episode of 2024, Lana Vawser and Courtney Kueck bring us some keys for the new year, and share what God has put on their hearts for the next season. In a place where God’s kairos (appointed time) meets our kronos (time), there is a redemption of so many things. God is restoring His promises. He is calling us to ‘look again’ — to come deeper into His heart and to see things how He sees them. There is a hope and wonder, if only we look now and come up higher!
Lisa Bruton: Fully Alive — Fully Found
Lisa shares with Lana and Courtney some powerful personal testimonies that show how God relentlessly pursues us. The heart of her story is knowing who the Father is and how much He tenderly loves us. With a focus on Him, we can be free to be authentically ourselves. Free to make mistakes, free to be imperfect — because He doesn’t wait for us to get it all together before He uses us. Even when we feel God is far away, He is always there: and there is power in a simple prayer of ‘Help.’ If we look for Him everywhere, we will find Him.
Bianca Serratore: Fully Alive — A Yes in Her Heart.
‘Love driven obedience’ is when we can give God our yes because we know His nature: He is kind, He is loving and He is good. When we know this we can say yes, even when the yes is costly. The more we see God —see His true nature — the more we overflow in that yes. The source of our obedience comes from intimacy, and we become driven by devotion. It is then that we can lay down our gifts and calling and discover His plans are so much bigger and better.
Susana Taumoepeau: Fully Alive — Authentic Authenticity
Join us as Susana talks about how she learnt to be honest with herself and honest with God. When we are honest, God can go into the broken places. When we are honest, God can show us who we truly are. When we are honest we discover a part of ourselves that we never knew existed and we feel so free. Romans 5 says, ‘While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.’ While we are in our worst possible place, He still loves us, still wants us. We can bring our masks and our mess to Him. The Bridegroom is coming for His bride. He is coming to awaken us to who we are. We will carry His heart, and other people will be awakened by our awakening.
Eloise de Haas: Fully Alive — The Lord’s Redemption
Paul wrote in Romans that God, ‘works all things together for the good.’ The Psalmist declared, ‘I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.’ But how could they say this in the midst of trouble? They trusted in the redemption of the Lord. This is not just the redemption of salvation, or the redemption that we will one day see in Heaven, but the redemptive power that works in our lives now. Redemption that gives beauty for ashes and joy for mourning. In this episode Eloise shares with Courtney and Lana about some real and raw times when she had to intentionally choose to lay down her ashes so God could turn it into beauty. The process is not always easy: sometimes you need to lay the same thing down again and again. In the end, it’s important to remember that the grace and redemption of the Father is not dependent on us, but on Him.
Jo Sarah Stanford: Fully Alive — Fully Me
We are who God has made us. A masterpiece. Filled with gifts, talents, hopes and dreams — beyond what we could imagine. Join Lana, Courtney and Jo, as Jo shares some stories about how God took her ‘yes’ and turned it into something incredible. The journey of ‘yes’ is not always easy. It requires trust. This trust is found in the Secret Place — in that place of intimacy with the Lord. And there you realise it’s not so much about the journey, but about the Secret Place itself.
Rachael Burton: Fully Alive — Growth
Living fully alive is a daily conversation of trust with the Father. It is learning to live in intimacy as His daughters, and stewarding what He has given us. As we mature, this intimacy changes and matures also. We lay down old methods and structures to grow into a whole new level of encounter. Sometimes this means practising a thankful posture, even in the midst of difficult circumstances; and giving God the authority, instead of taking control. But when we yield our control to Him, we rise in His authority, knowing He is our firm foundation. Here, we can encourage and strengthen others without competition, calling each other deeper into Christ.
Roma Waterman: Fully Alive — Rhythms of Rest
In the first episode of season three, we ask, ‘what does it mean to live as a woman of God, fully alive?’ Roma joins Lana and Courtney to discuss the rhythms of life and how God is changing the way we work, so we can rest while still producing. We look at how seasons of rest are just as important as seasons of productivity: and ask who are we when we aren’t producing. Is our identity tied to what we do? They also share some practical tips on how to operate from that place of rest, and encourage us to find the purpose in the little, beautiful things God puts around us.
Katherine Ruonala: The Sacrifice of the Bride
Join Courtney, Lana and Katherine, as Katherine shares her heart for a life of worship. Worship is a foundational place of transformation. Living a life of worship is sometimes a sacrifice, but where there is sacrifice, there is always a response from heaven. Through this, we acknowledge His Lordship, and understand that He becomes our protector. This brings peace as we discover God delights in providing for us. He calls us to surrender so that every part of our lives are transformed. He brings His Bride into alignment with Him, so that we live from a place of overflow, and come to the revelation of God’s true, loving nature.
Anita Alexander: The Maturing of the Bride
Our Journey is about love. To always be in pursuit and always be pursued. God’s view of love is different to our worldly view. He wants to take us to a higher maturity of what true love looks like. Do we choose to keep our bridal covenant with God, or do we covenant with the things of this world and the lies we believe? Maturity is a life of all in abandon: saying I’m not living for myself, but living for Him. This maturity is the beauty of the Bride, reflecting the beauty of the King.
Sarah is real and raw as she shares from her journey in living daily as the Bride. When we say, ‘I’m unworthy…I’m not good enough…’ God says, ‘I am the I AM.’ It is HIS voice we must listen to, not the voice of the accuser. Sometimes we struggle with God’s love, yet the struggle is not with Him, but within ourselves. He holds us, safe and secure, until we finally come to a resolution that His love is the only answer to our every question. He is the safe place in the chaos. Our devotion is developed in these moments: and as we move forward, we invite others into His embrace too.
