This time on the Team Talk Podcast Phil Swann is joined by Lindsay Brown, one of Merthyr’s finest exports! It was a delight in this episode to hear Lindsay’s passion and enthusiasm for evangelism and we are  sure you will benefit from many of the insights he shared. God bless your listening and your living.   

In this episode Phil Swann chats with Steffan Jones who is a pastor in the small town of Pontardawe. Having seen the church growing in the past few years, they are now embarking on a new building project, and Steffan shares a little about this.
He then goes on to share about the 'Passion for life' mission that will be taking place this Easter, before discussing evangelism in general in Wales. 

In this third episode Stephen Clark continues to discuss how he preaches the incarnation at Christmas and the importance of communicating both the supernatural and the ordinary events in a balanced way. He explains that the only way to preach the doctrine of Christ is to do so in such a way that leads to worship. Doctrine leads to doxology! 

So find yourself a comfy chair, or settle into a sustainable pace on your run and join us for another riveting episode of the EMW Team Talk Podcast.
