Today Phil Pringle brings a unique perspective on Proverbs 31. It describes a virtuous woman - a woman of force - and we can see that the whole Proverb can also apply to The Church. Just like Eliezer has to search the earth for a virtuous woman, the Holy Spirit searches the earth for a virtuous church - one that is unselfish, generous, helpful, and beautiful.

This week Phil Pringle shares a devotional on one of his favourite passages in the Bible: John 15. In it, Jesus says he is the true vine, which means there are many other vines that we can be part of. But Jesus’ heart for us is that we stay connected to him, the true vine. In him we can bear much fruit, and for this to happen, a little pruning must take place. This is an encouraging word reminding us that pruning can be the beginning of an exciting fruitfulness in your life.

This week Phil Pringle is looking at one of the most recited prayers in the entire world: The Lord’s Prayer. In the Bible we see that Noah offered up an offering, Jacob wrestled with God, Job cried out to God, and David sung psalms and prayers. The disciples realised that the secret to Jesus’ life on earth was Him removing himself from everything to commune with God. It is the most powerful move we can make.

If you know Mark & Bernie, you know what it is to feel encouraged and strengthened by their overwhelming kindness. We pray this podcast inspires you to help young leaders rise in the same way they have!

This week Phil Pringle chats to John Pearce, Executive Director of C3 Church Global, about being and making disciples.

This is such an important conversation and Phil and John bring their own personal experience to the table which is meaningful and well worth the listen.

Covid has affected all areas of life and this includes Church life. This week Phil Pringle has a candid conversation with John Pearce, Executive Director of C3 Church Global, about the return of the Church.
