Ep6: Hope for all the world
How is our Christian faith relevant and applicable even for friends who aren't believers? How can we share with friends in normal, honest and winsome ways - even through the real struggles of life? This conversation covers some pitfalls, opportunities and encouragements to be more open about the difference Jesus makes in our lives.

Ep 5: Strengthening Hearts (Prayer)
Do you want to grow more like Jesus and encourage others in the same? What could be more important or powerful thank prayer - calling on the only one who can and does change hearts in all sorts of ways. We consider different kinds of prayers, different examples in the Bible - but most of all soak in the huge encouragement God's word gives us to pray - boldly, widely, confidently in the goodness and power of our Heavenly Father.

Ep 4: Engaging in battle
Do we think of the Christian life as a battle? The Bible teaches that the Christian is at war against the world, the flesh and the Devil. We discuss what it looks like to think and 'fight' rightly - taking encouragement and confidence from God’s word and assurance that the Lamb wins!

Ep 3: Lift your eyes
Where can we turn when things are hard? How can we encourage others? This episode encourages us to lift our eyes - learning to turn to God, especially through learning the biblical practice of lament.
