A new podcast has been assembled to store nothing particular but to hoard everything purposeful. 

Where do you store random objects of potential practicality: the batteries, plasters and paper clips you accumulate in life? This podcast is pretty much that place – The Audio Drawer. Here we’re hoarding recordings for New Zealand Baptists because one day, you could find an episode that’ll be just the thing.

Found on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and, of course, the Baptist NZ app and website.

A recentish episode we’ve stashed in The Audio Drawer is the last Carey Conversations with Frank Ritchie, Wesleyan Methodist Minister and one of the authors of the Arise Church report. 

What does it mean to be the Church, and how are we modelling power? How does Jesus demonstrate power?

And thanks to Carey Baptist College and the Centre for Lifelong Learning for letting us store this recording in The Audio Draw!
