Spiritual warfare is a topic that might scare and confuse us more than it should. Join James and Oz as they dip their toes into this subject, with the aim of giving disciples of Jesus a bit more confidence and wisdom in confronting the reality of spiritual warfare.

Ollie Coekin kicks off our new sermon series called Sacred Moments, looking at John 4 and the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman.

In this episode James asks Oz about how we can read, interpret and understand the wisdom literature in the Bible. The wisdom literature books are all fairly different in style, yet essential for us as we consider how to live by faith in a world of suffering, searching for meaning, love, wisdom and ask what it means to worship. Oz particularly focuses on the Psalms and Ecclesiastes and how we can think about interpreting and applying them to our lives as we follow Jesus today.

In an increasingly digital world, it can sometimes be hard to navigate the social media landscape and to balance the benefits of being more connected than ever, with the potential dangers and isolation it can also bring. In this podcast Ross and Oz take a look at how Christians can approach some of these issues both for themselves and also their children and what the Bible might have to say about it.
