We often ask, “What will heaven be like?” Psalm 8 gives us a glimpse—not of clouds and harps, but of majesty, glory, and a world made right. But let’s be honest: the world doesn’t always feel that way now. In this sermon, Rev. Phil Price reflects on how the praise of heaven collides with the pain of earth, and how worship helps us hold both together. If you’ve ever longed for more—more meaning, more beauty, more God—this episode invites you to lift your eyes and anchor your hope.

Ever felt like life just won’t let up? In this episode, we explore the surprising kindness of a God who makes us rest—even when we don’t think we need it. Drawing from Psalm 23, we’ll unpack how true rest isn’t laziness or luxury—it’s grace. We’ll talk burnout, busyness, and why “comfort” might not always feel like a warm hug. If you’re exhausted, overcommitted, or just running on empty, this one’s for you.

Highlights:

• The hidden power of “He makes me lie down”

• Why the Shepherd’s rod and staff are good news

• What’s really chasing you: guilt or grace?

• A fresh take on rest as an act of faith

Pull up a chair—or better yet, lie down in green pastures—and let’s rethink what it means to be still.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the quiet, earthy wisdom of early Celtic Christianity and ask what it might offer our rural communities today. Far from being nostalgic or overly romanticised, the Celtic tradition is deeply practical and rooted in the rhythms of creation, silence, stillness, and everyday life.

We’ll explore:

• What the Celts meant by “thin places”

• How to find sacredness in ordinary routines

• Why silence and stillness matter more than ever

• How journaling and small practices can deepen faith

• The importance of local community in spiritual growth

Whether you’re a lifelong rural dweller or simply yearning for a deeper connection with God in the chaos of modern life, this episode invites you to slow down, look again, and discover that the divine is far closer than we think.
