Welcome to Elm With Eli. Faith journeys and how Christians came to know Christ.
Join your host, Eli Jennings, as each episode features a conversation with a faithful Christian from the church family who shares their faith journey; how they first came to know Christ and his church, what God has done in their life, and how their faith has grown along the way.
Colossians 2:7:
"Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness."

Today, I'm joined by Claire Whitcombe, a faithful Christian, mum of two young teenagers, and a loving wife to her husband Mark.
Claire grew up in Canberra as a preacher’s kid at the Canberra Church of Christ, so she was surrounded by an incredibly warm, hospitable church community. But as a teenager, she reached a point where she knew she needed to make her faith her own.
Since then, Claire has walked with the Lord across different countries and communities, and today, serving heavily in children's Bible ministries. Claire and her family worship with the Macquarie Church of Christ. So with that — let's get right into it.

Richard Birkett
Faith journey, transformation, and hope.In this special episode, I sit down with Richard Birkett, a faithful and long-time Christian from my home congregation (the Canberra Church of Christ). Richard shares his lifelong faith journey, from his early confirmation in the Presbyterian Church to finding deeper truth in the Canberra Church of Christ after responding to a Bible course advertisement in 1978 by Ian Grant. He reflects on baptism, ongoing learning through Scripture, and how God’s providence guided him. Richard also speaks on overcoming personal loss with hope and the support of his church family and God's Word, encouraging us in persevering, enduring, sincere, lasting faith.

Graham Wall
A conversation about growing in faith over time. From being baptised at a young age to years of ministry, church planting, and serving others. Graham shares how daily time in the Bible shaped his life, how doubt strengthened his faith, and offers encouragement for staying close to God at every stage of life.
Today I’m joined by my good friend and brother in Christ, Graham Wall, who’s spent many years serving in the church through teaching, ministry, and outreach. Graham shared with us many tips and encouragements which he's picked up and learnt over his decades of ministry, which I think were really valuable and you'll really enjoy.
Thank you, Graham, for having the chat with me. So, without further ado, sit back, relax, and let's get right into it.
