Unfortunately, the recording of this week’s gathering failed so we are unable to post the report made by Mick Martin and Julian Martin on their recent trip to West Timor with Opportunity International Australia. We apologise to those who were hoping to listen to this podcast.

The Upper Room 6 September 09 - Conversation: Part 1 (Mick Martin)

What if, instead of reading the utterances of God in Genesis chapter 1 as declarations of a divine singularity into a pre-cosmic void, we read them as conversations among the persons of the triune God?

This week we consider the creative power of “Let there be…” conversations.
