The boys are in Cambridge this month, hanging out with Matt Russell. Matt planted ‘Mercy Street’ about 15 years ago in the US, a church that grew to around a 1000, many of whom were recovering addicts. Needless to say, he’s got a very interesting story!  

Nomad Journey is an occasional show where Tim and Dave reflect on their own pioneering adventures. In this episode they look back over the last 8 months and the formation of a new Jesus-centred community that emerged from their pioneering endeavours. 

This month we’re having a chat with Andrew Marin, author of ‘Love is an Orientation’ and founder of the Marin Foundation. The Marin Foundation seeks to build bridges between the church and the gay community. As you can imagine, there’s plenty for us to talk to him about. 

On this month’s show we’re chatting with John Hayes, the founder and director of the mission order InnerChange.

InnerChange supports missional communities who are living incarnationally in the poorest areas of cities around the world. So brace yourself for a challenging and inspiring interview! 

Inspired by a glorious summer of sport, Nomad thought we'd bring you a story that seamlessly links mission and sport. So while we were at the Greenbelt festival we met up with the Amos Trust’s Chris Rose. Chris has got an amazing story to tell of gathering together street child from around the world for a football World Cup! Hard to believe I know, but it happened! Tune in to find out more. 

On this month’s show we’re having a talk with Mike Sares, who planted and pastors the Denver based church ‘Scum of the Earth’. It’s a great story of cross-cultural mission, community and new forms of church. 

We’re chatting with Ian Adams on the podcast this month. Ian co-founded mayBe, a fresh expression of church in Oxford. He also works for Church Mission Society as missional community developer. So we thought he’d be the right chap to talk to about starting new forms of church. 

We've asked Liz Babbs to contribute a meditation for our occasional 'Nomad Spirituality' series. So here it is, 'Lindisfarne'. 

Liz Babbs is an author, speaker and evangelist and one who has been deeply influenced by celtic spirituality. We chat with Liz about celtic spirituality and its potential as a tool for mission.

Chris Wright is on the podcast this month. Chris is an Old Testament scholar who reckons the biblical narrative only makes sense if mission is seen as its overarching theme. So we test this theory with him and ask him to explain some of the trickier OT stories. 

We're off to London this month to meet up with Andrea Campanale. Andrea does some really interesting work among people involved in the new spiritualties. This has caused her to reflect deeply on mission and what it means to be church.  

This month Dave and Tim are heading off to meet Tony and Felicity Dale.

A couple of decades ago Tony and Felicity felt called to move from the UK to the US to plant a church. As you can imagine, it's been quite a journey (in all senses of the word!) and they've leant stacks about what it means to be church.

Welcome back to Nomad Journey. This is our occasional show where Tim and Dave reflect on their own pioneering adventures, and how they're applying the principles learned from all the experts they've been chatting with.

The boys are in London this month at the home of Mr Alpha himself, Nicky Gumbel. So tune in to hear about the development of Alpha and its future in our rapidly changing culture. 

For Nomad Extra this month the boys are off to London to meet up with Phil Togwell. Phil is part of the 24/7 Prayer movement. Over the last few years he's been involved in setting up spaces in schools for children to honestly and naturally begin to connect with God. It's an inspiring story!

The boys are off to Oxford this month to hang out with Pete Ward.

Pete wrote 'Liquid Church' about 10 years ago now, but it's a theory that has stuck around and influenced the views of many people interested in new forms of church. So Nomad thought they'd better find out a bit more.  

Nomad Extra is back with another liitle bonus interview for you.

Tim and Dave were in Leeds recently and so thought they'd catch up with Simon Hall of the Revive community. So tune in to hear the story of Simon's journey into new forms of mission and Christian community.  

This month Tim's leaving Dave at home and heading north with Hannah to Loyola Hall for a 5 day silent retreat.

Tim will be recording a daily reflection on his experiences and then at the end of the retreat will interview Ruth Holgate, the director of the centre, about the spirituality of silence.
