    The Arrivals Gate

    Where does the departing love one go after they have left the Departure Gate? What might that mean for the departing and the one left behind? Are we being called to God's marae and who will be there? There are many questions about entering God's heaven and in this episode my dad asks probing thoughts and looks at how the Bible and contemporary stories help us understand God's final call.

    I am a Broken Vessel

    This is episode 12 of my dad’s podcast, and I remember when I first watched the movie Dead Poets’ Society, it gave me a love of poetry, of simple words and phrases that combined can mean something so powerful, and the final scene still moves me today. That same vibe, that truth is felt in the words of my dad’s podcast this month. The final song is called Be A Refuge, which is used by permission of the artist and friend of my father, Steven Faux.

    Coffee at the Departure Gate

    This is episode eleven of Ending Well. This month, my dad speaks about waiting — that quiet stretch of time between knowing and not knowing, when the plane will depart but no one can say when. It’s the restless stillness before departure, what do we do, how do we feel, in those suspended moments of uncertainty?

    What are we afraid of, if love is as strong as death?

    In this 10th episode, my dad shares that we often avoid talking about death, yet even believers wrestle with the fear of what comes next. My dad explores that tension and the hope found in the gospel.

    Trigger Points

    We all have trigger points. When we're on this journey of living life, suddenly, we're triggered into catastrophe. This week's episode talks very, very deeply about the highs and the lows of living with cancer. Yet, in those lows, sometimes unexpected things happen that trigger the other way. This episode is slightly longer due to containing the full version of a song that has lifted my dad out of his hard times. The song is Goodness by Te Rautini and is used by permission.

    Christ Who Lives in Me

    Part three of my Psalm 23 meditations: ‘Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, You are with me.’ In that valley, I discovered Christ within me, my quiet companion and my life, and I was and have never been alone.

    Where is God in this Cancer?

    The second of three meditations on the Radiotherapy Table. In this deeply personal episode, David continues the meditation series by sharing his experience undergoing radiotherapy. As he reflects on pain and vulnerability, he finds new meaning in the crucifixion of Jesus—seen through the comforting lens of Psalm 23. A raw and moving reflection on suffering, faith, and divine presence in dark valleys.
