Welcome to BANTER; the weekly podcast where we unpack last Sunday's sermon.
This week as we explore the importance of having chaplain mindsets, we ask; Does the gospel require contextualisation? Where does physical healing and exorcism fit into evangelism? What does the Bible say about Satan's origins? And how much impact can a couple of red frogs have?

Welcome to BANTER; the weekly podcast where we unpack last Sunday's sermon.
God still calls us to observe a weekly day of rest. So what does that actually look like? In a society that idolises work, how do we ensure we don't become "mini Pharaohs" to ourselves or others? And why does the church traditionally observe Sabbath on Sunday if it was originally on Saturday?
So take a load off, lean back, and kick your feet up as we explore the theme of rest this week on BANTER.

8 “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. (Exodus 20:8-11)
Mitch wraps up our series on pruning with a look at our work habits and the importance God places on rest.
