Formed by Romans chapter twelve, 2024 will be an opportunity for us to explore pathways and practices shaping our Soul Path. In our commitment to love God, ourselves, and others, we will adventure in what it means to know Jesus, be with Jesus, imitate Jesus, and communicate Jesus. A year dedicated to unpacking a way to be, ahead of a thing to do.

It's the final episode of the Around the Fire podcast series, 'Summer in the City', where we have picked out 4 of those episodes to delve deeper, and look in more detail at the movements and life of Peter.
During the summer of 2023, we went on a city safari, tracking the movements of Peter through the start of the book of Acts.
We explored and learnt from Peter's journey of becoming a witness, home, near and far. Through the book of Acts we saw Holy Spirit leading and guiding.
This week, Jonny & Sarah fast forward the end of the series to episode 8 , looking at 'Peter's Plea'.
We would love to hear your feedback, and also any questions you have on this episode/series, or any of the other episodes in Around The Fire. Jonny & Sarah will do their best to answer any questions in future podcasts.
