Martin King
Hosted by Martin King, this is a platform created for conversations that are (un)filtered through passion, intellectual wisdom and spiritual wisdom; all to engage the hearts & minds of our listeners creatively, and add to their ever-growing perspective.
We're back with a continued conversation about going through dark and difficult moments, when it feels like every bad thing that could happen is happening, and God seems to be silent about it.
This week, Pastor Frans Vermaak and I dive a little deeper into the response: how God can use silent seasons to invite us into a place of growth in our character, and in our relationship with Him - also, listen till the end for a prayer just for you!

This week, we officially welcome our first guest onto the show, in a timely conversation about going through dark and difficult moments, when it feels like every bad thing that could happen is happening, and God seems to be silent about it.
What are these silent seasons? Why do we go through them, and how should we even respond to them? We lay it all out in this full-length exchange between myself and Pastor Frans Vermaak, who leads One Way Church in Phalaborwa, on the far-north of South Africa - here's the first part of a conversation you will surely be impacted by!

Have you ever thought of how important people's names are? Do you get irritated, or feel awkward, when people continuously butcher your name, or perhaps worse, assign you a nickname you just didn't ask for? None of these reactions are out of place, because your name is truly important, and should be treated with care and respect, no matter how common, unique, short or long it is.
In today's episode, we discuss why it's important to get people's names right, as well as some tips to help you in learning to pronounce the name of a person you've just met.

The Matt Reeves directed Batman film is out, and has so far been very well received by audiences worldwide!
I happen to be a big movie lover myself, and The Batman is a film I have looked forward to viewing, particularly for some of the great real life lessons we tend to get from watching these types of films. Therefore, WITHOUT SPOILERS, today's episode takes a brief look at the power and presence of Batman villains, and discusses why they matter, even to the average non-movie-loving person.

For years, the African church has been one of the most interesting and yet, misconceived culture groups in the world. From over-exaggerated dramatizations, to people distancing themselves from Christianity as a whole, the black church has seen it all, and heard it all.
Granted, parts of this reality may be justifiable, but that doesn't mean the black church should lose its place in society. Today, we shine a light on, and ignite a conversation about the necessity of black worship.

Just as exciting as it is to release a first official episode, we often celebrate the beginning of new things in our lives, even to the point of anticipating only the best for ourselves and others, but what if starting a new thing isn't as simple as...starting a new thing?
In today's episode, we creatively ignite a conversation about the difficulty that is associated with starting something new, and why you don't want to avoid going through it, whatever your new thing looks like.
