    Unlocking Your Spiritual Transformation through Healthy Discipleship: Matt Hatch

    Dave & Theo sit down with Matt Hatch to discuss his excellent book Metamorphosis. Many of us want to grow and mature in our faith yet feel stuck or have plateaued spiritually. We long for a more meaningful spiritual life yet feel frustrated and exhausted at the lack of growth. We can feel disappointed and even guilty from our lack of progress. Or we’ve tried really hard yet seemingly failed to grow. We can be left wondering, is transformation even possible? With its inspiring blend of real-life stories, biblical wisdom and practical tools, Metamorphosis will help you move from spiritual stagnation to transformation and start your journey of healthy discipleship. The book is available on Amazon Matt Hatch is the founder and senior pastor of Mosaic, a multi-congregational church in Leeds, UK. He leads a Catalyst Hub team that starts and strengthens churches locally and globally. He is married to Philippa and has three adult children. He is a dark chocolate connoisseur and loves chopping wood. To find out more about our upcoming courses head to https://leeds-school-of-theology.org/

    Missional Acts- Daniel McGinnis

    In this episode Dave sits down with our very own Dr Daniel McGinnis to talk about his new book "Missional Acts".  In this study of the Book of Acts Daniel analyses Luke’s story of the first Christians in light of ancient rhetorical conventions, concluding that Luke presents his stories to strengthen the missional commitment and practice of his readers.  The book analyses the missional content of Acts in four important categories: stimuli, structures, strategies, and suffering.  Daniel says: “Missional Acts has been more than 11 years in the making and I’m absolutely thrilled that it’s finally available.  If you’re interested in the book of Acts, the early church, or mission then this is the book for you!" https://www.amazon.co.uk/Missional-Acts-Rhetorical-Narrative-Apostles/dp/172527843X/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=daniel+mcginnis&qid=1643817545&s=books&sprefix=daniel+mc%2Cstripbooks%2C112&sr=1-1
