» Episode 1: A New Hope

There is chaos & terror in the capitol city. There is a rebel preacher who preaches Good News but makes the established faith leaders & the Empire nervous. And that rebel preacher knows it.

So he counsels his followers – that there will be signs of calamity and chaos. Some folks will fall away. Others will stand tall. So be alert & on guard – because the Good News is what remains.

A new hope for those who have forgotten that they are never alone…

No matter where you are or however you find yourself in your faith journey, know that you are most welcome here.
