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.

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.

Welcome to part two of our Church Health series. In today’s message, Pastor Daniel Lee explores the values we hold both as a church and as individuals, and how living out those values helps us create, protect, and promote a healthy church culture.

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.

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.

In this week’s podcast, our youth pastor, Will Jenkins, talks about the problems many of us have with praise. He explores what praise truly is—and what it isn’t—and how genuine praise can deepen and strengthen our relationship with God.
