Thriving in the Wilderness
When you find yourself in an arid place, when life is a struggle or we just feel we have lost our way, there is hope! The wilderness may be a place of testing or preparation, it may be a mirror to reveal who we truly are and help us to grow, but more importantly, we are never in that place alone. God is always present to help and guide. In this episode we discuss the reality that so many face and point to the hope and opportunities that are present in midst of the desert.

Remembrance: Looking back and moving forward
Remembrance honours those who serve to defend our freedom and way of life. It recognises the sacrifice of the Armed Forces across history, as well as loss of those emergency services and innocent civilians killed through conflict and terrorism. As we reflect on the importance of this moment, we consider the importance of asking the right questions: Why are people willing to serve and sacrifice everything and what should our response be as we face the future?

Army Core Values: Respect for Others
Respect is fundamental to people's lives and mission success and flows from an understanding human dignity and value. In this podcast we discuss how teams that embrace diversity, and value each individual for their contribution and viewpoint are always stronger for it and how important it is to follow the words of Jesus when he says: 'We must treat everyone we encounter, as we would wish to be treated.'
