Podcast! Episode 2 Episode 3 Episode 4 Theme: In Step with Jesus Guest: Ben, cross-cultural worker in Mozambique Story: Ben shares the stories of the Bible study groups he regularly meets with. These Yawo men are all at different stages of their walk with Jesus, but they have one thing in common... they all want to know more! Quote: “Faith in Jesus should be about the whole person, not just some sort of mask or some sort of surface identity. We believe that Jesus has the power to change people. But that change happens from within a person in their heart, dealing with the things that God needs to deal with there and that then shapes what they look like on the outside.” - Ben Theme: In Step with Others Guest: Villy, cross-cultural worker in Thailand Story: Villy has nearly 20 years of stories from Thailand but manages to narrow it down to one story! Her and her husband Muana’s genuine care and love for their neighbours opened opportunities for conversations about Jesus that otherwise wouldn’t have happened (and that’s just the start!). Quote: “We (the cross-cultural workers) discover God in just amazing ways as well. I often like to compare God to a diamond which has different facets... so you see God from different angles and it's really humbling. My picture of God has really broadened. I was like, ‘Oooh, just put Him a box,’ in the past but He is beyond that!” - Villy Theme: In Step with God’s Mission Guests: Kate, preparing to serve in South East Asia Alice, student discerning God’s leading Story: God is continually inviting us to partner with Him in His mission and Kate and Alice share their stories of call, discernment and partnering with God to explore this. Quote: “This is a partnership between God and myself and people in Australia and people in South East Asia. It's this whole big team effort and I cannot do it alone, there's no way that I could possible to this by myself.” - Kate Keen to hear the stories?!
