Rooted: Recent Episodes
Central Church
Our unconscious lives sustain habits that shape us for good and bad. We make a cup of tea in the morning. We check social media when we get into bed at night. But what if God got involved in our rhythms, and shaped them for the better? And not just ours, but our friends’, and our families? What would it look like if our communities were committed to shared rhythms of word, worship and prayer? We think it would look pretty radical. And Jesus would be there.
Rooted is an invitation to develop a rhythm of being with God, together.

This Advent we would love our church family to be involved in helping us all draw closer to Jesus, His words and the hope of the Christmas story. We have four Rooted podcast episodes, enabling people in our church family to share stories that are linked to advent and the theme of ‘Radical Hospitality’ which we have been encouraging Communities to explore throughout this term.
Jesus who came to the earth as a baby went on to be the greatest example of love and genuine hospitality to all He encountered. As Jesus’ disciples how can we learn from Him, from His life and from one another’s interpretations of what it means to live this out not just at Christmas but every day.
