  • 1. Conversation with Becca

    22:33||Season 2025, Ep. 1
    Welcome to New Life People, a space where we explore real stories from people in our community who are learning what it means to love God, love people, and make disciples of all nations. Each episode, you’ll hear from someone walking out their faith in everyday life, in homes, workplaces, neighbourhoods, and beyond. Through honest conversations, we’ll discover how the love of Jesus is transforming lives and how ordinary people are participating in His extraordinary mission. We believe these stories matter; they encourage us, edify us, and remind us that we’re all part of God’s big story. This is more than just a podcast; it’s a journey of following Jesus together.
