FridayPM is a talk show where we tackle everyday topics with eternal significance.
We are a team of 5 Christian musical missionaries called Vinesong, taking the gospel through worship and the spoken word to many nations around the world. We represent 4 nations, South Africa, America, Poland and the UK and often interview people from various cultural backgrounds and nationalities.
This podcast started out as a weekly YouTube broadcast during the 2020 lockdown and we decided to make it more readily accessible to all in a purely audio format.
Every week we take a different subject and relate to it with personal stories and experiences which we back up with biblical references.
We invite guests from all walks of life and nationalities to speak about issues that have had a personal impact on their lives and they share how they have been able to and are able to tackle them in a practical way on topics such as:
Loneliness, health, racism, depression, spiritual survival, money management, evangelism, social media and its role in our lives, plus much more.
So come on and join the fun whilst we tackle life’s issues together. As we like to say ‘Let’s talk about it!
Come celebrate the 100th episode of FridayPM with us! Join us as we look back on this incredible journey that God led us on and talk about the highs and lows. We will share some bloopers with you, as well as some BIG NEWS.
In this episode on FridayPM we share part 2 of our interview with Carol Lashley-Bobb, a member of the previous Vinesong team. Listen as she shares about what putting God first has looked like in her life with regards to her family, especially her children. Join us for more laughter and tears as we continue to learn how to put 'God First'. Let's talk about it!
This week on FridayPM we speak to Carol Lashley-Bobb, a member of the previous Vinesong team.

We are together again and on tour! This time recording FridayPM in York, England. We talk about taking to the streets to pray for salvation and the needs of our neighbours. We discuss how we did it and why. Is that something you or your church wants to adopt? Let's take to the streets and talk about reaching our neighbourhoods for Jesus!
Let's talk about it!
Join us this Friday as we talk to Mary who shares her incredible life story. With her help, we’ll discuss a very serious and important topic: domestic abuse. Through her story we learn how to call for help, who to reach out to, what can be done and what is God’s role in all of it.
What does ‘dying to self’ mean? How do we do it? Do we do it once and then that’s it for the rest of our lives? Join us as we speak to Isaac Neuteboom, a member of the previous Vinesong team as he talks about “graveyard” experiences that taught him to first seek the Kingdom as recipe for reaping all God’s benefits!
Let's talk about it!
Join us for the final episode of Vinesong History as we interview Kristof (Krzysztof), Kate, Annet & Christian and show the new team in action.
From the pioneering international travel of the 3rd team, join us as we meet the 4th permanent team of Vinesong. John introduces Daniel, Charlene, Rachael and Zach and they explain their roles within the team as well as sharing testimonies.
The international ministry takes off as Vinesong takes part in international conferences hosted by the likes of Reinhard Bonnke, David Hathaway, Redeemed Christian Church of God etc. The team learns to sing in many different languages phonetically.
The story continues to show how Vinesong develops as an international ministry with an international team. Meet the members of the 3rd team who came from many different nations.
Plans to plant the first Vineyard church outside of America are set in motion when John is asked to plant a church in Norway. On the way he stops to visit his parents in South Africa and it was there, unexpectedly, that the ministry of Vinesong was born. Continue with us on this 40 year journey of God's faithfulness.
Continuing on the history of Vinesong…. This Friday we find out how John went from a missionary in The Netherlands to becoming Vice President of Andraé Crouch ministries in Los Angeles CA. There for spiritual and organisational purposes, he begins a bible study to restrict the flow of people into Andraé’s house. Hear how this bible study became a church and how John became one of the founding Pastors in the Vineyard movement.
Join us for part 2 of 8 of the History of Vinesong. Hear about John's early days as a missionary and how he went on to plant churches in England, The Netherlands and America, all in preparation for what God was going to do, later on, to establish the ministry of Vinesong.
This year, by God’s grace, Vinesong is celebrating 40 years of ministry. To commemorate this, FridayPM will feature Vinesong’s documentary “History of Vinesong” over the next 8 weeks. The first part, this Friday, will cover the early life of Vinesong’s founder, John Watson. Join him as he is interviewed by Giles Stevens, an Evangelist and Director of Vinesong Ministries UK.
Are you struggling to serve God in your church and local community? Join us as we speak to Michael and Sue Ensor who share a simple approach to loving and serving people. Find out how simply being friendly can open the door to helping others. Let’s talk about it!
Are you discouraged about how to share the love of Jesus with those around you? Join us this Friday for a faith building interview with great friends of ours on how they got started sharing Jesus with local people in their town in England. You too can share Jesus with those around you using this great evangelism tool!
Let's talk about it!
Are we in "last days"? What do we as Christians need to do to stay focused as we await the coming of Jesus? How soon is Jesus' coming? How do we wait with joy and not fear?

This week we interview our very own Zach and Kate, a recently engaged couple. We will talk about a present-day taboo: purity in relationships. Is abstinence before marriage even possible in this day and age? Why and how should we stick to it? What are the perks of conducting relationships the way God intended them to be from the very beginning? Let’s talk about it!
What is your assignment? In Matthew 28:18-20 in what we call ‘The Great Commission’, Jesus says that we should go in His authority, make disciples of all nations, baptise them and teach them to observe all things that He has commanded us. If we are not obedient, we have no authority. Therefore, Spiritual authority is activated when we obediently step into our God-sent assignment. Join us as we discuss authority in Jesus and the impact it has on how we live our lives.
