Episode 5 - Depth Forever

Bonus Episode - A Conversation with Mark Sayers

Join the team for a bonus episode. The Depth series is all said and done, but we have one more episode featuring pastor and author Mark Sayers of RED Church, Melbourne. Mark joins Emily, Beau, Laura and Nick as they explore his latest book 'Disappearing Church' and chat through some of his reflections on contemporary church culture in the west, the role of bible reading, prayer, and meeting with God's family in a life that seeks to know Christ more deeply, and how amazingly faithful Christ is to us amidst seasons of perseverance. We felt truly blessed to have Mark join us, and our prayer is that you feel just as encouraged as we do. Thanks for joining us on this podcast journey!
