#1 Testimony + Gods call in Universities (feat. Tom Woodage)
Does God really want a person like me in his kingdom? How can I share my story with others? Isn't university for people to sway away from God, and enjoy themselves? In this, the pilot episode of the podcast, we discuss these thoughts, through Toms testimony, his poetry, and more. The 'Talking God at University' podcast, was imagined first when Matthew found himself discussing Christian lives at university with several friends, on an online call late at night. God spoke to him that evening, reminding him of the great work the Holy Spirit is doing at university, and how we are disciples for a mighty faith. He knew at once that he was called to start a podcast, to speak to the students of universities and colleges, to tell the greatness of God, by having discussions just like the late night calls.
We particularly focus in this first episode on Toms story, and how his coming to faith, has led to the growth of his gift, through his lyrics. University is a time of freedom for many students, and the decision to follow Jesus is the most rewarding freedom you can find. 2020 has been confusing, tough and hopeless for many students, the question for this upcoming new year is, will you pick up the cross and follow in Jesus' mission?
