Our work is only possible with your support. Please consider becoming a paid subscriber to enable us to continue with the podcast. Al Roxburgh and Jenny Sinclair meet with Nick Graves, pastor of Old Lodge Lane Baptist Church, in Purley, South London (UK). Nick talks about his experience of the unraveling in his local community and his church, and how becoming more attentive to the movement of the Holy Spirit in the local changed everything. He describes how being with neighbours and listening to God through them not only transformed his leadership, but also the relationship between the congregation and the local community. - Links - For Alan J Roxburgh: http://alanroxburgh.com/about https://www.themissionalnetwork.com/author/alan-roxburgh/ https://journalofmissionalpractice.com/alan-roxburgh Twitter: https://twitter.com/alanjroxburgh?lang=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alan.roxburgh.127/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecommonsnetwork Joining God in the Great Unraveling https://www.amazon.ca/Joining-God-Great-Unraveling-Learned/dp/1725288508/ref=sr_1_ Leadership, God’s Agency and Disruptions https://www.amazon.ca/Leadership-Gods-Agency-Disruptions-Confronting/dp/1725271745/ref Joining God, Remaking Church, Changing the World: The New Shape of the Church in Our Time https://www.amazon.ca/Joining-Remaking-Church-Changing-World/dp/0819232114/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2NHGW8KB7L0SQ&keywords=Alan+J+Roxburgh&qid=1687098960&s=books&sprefix=alan+j+roxburgh%2Cstripbooks%2C130&sr=1-3 For Jenny Sinclair: Website: https://togetherforthecommongood.co.uk/from-jenny-sinclair LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenny-sinclair-0589783b/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/T4CG Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TogetherForTheCommonGoodUK Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/t4cg_insta/ For Nick Graves: https://ollbc.org.uk/ https://togetherforthecommongood.co.uk/stories/where-the-kingdom-is Get full access to Leaving Egypt at leavingegyptpodcast.substack.com/subscribe
