Update - 11/2020 We've renamed the podcast to Kingdom Heard and rather than spontaneous prayer & worship, the new episodes are recorded writings from our weekly publication laid on top of original ambient music, created just for the podcast.

-- Previous episodes are labeled with the original podcast title, "Men who Pray."
Each of the older episodes are candid recordings of our own personal prayer and worship times. Be spurred on as we pray, read the Word and sing out live music and praise based on what we've read.
Praying yesterday and this song came out. I did a quick recording today, so you'll hear some household background noises.
I had recently read through Song of Solomon and been thinking much about the purity of the bride and the day when I'll finally see God face to face. It's a song that expresses my longing, a little bit lament and a lot of hopeful expectation to that day, when "You and I, we'll dwell as one."

Come away my love
Come away my love
I will follow you wherever
I will follow you forever
You are my morning sun
You are my morning sun
I have no need of the sun, moon or stars when you and I we dwell as one
Come, oh Zion come
Come, oh Zion come
We speak much of living in light of eternity. Here we speak of another important revelation: living in light of the absolute, profound, unchanging, ever-present realness of God.

In a time when churches are scrambling to set up live streams and attempting to create digital community, what if we also sent out a call to a self-imposed Patmos? A time of isolation, where we shut out other voices and got alone with God.

Have we delighted in the pursuit of wisdom as wisdom delighted with us? Or as God delighted daily in her? Have we pursued her? Sought her out? Or have we simply darkened His counsel by words spoken without knowledge.
Where is the prophetic voice for our nation? For our world? It seems a strange question to pose, yet in light of the crisis nature of current events, it is one we must be asking.
I didn't know Him, not truly, and so I created a version of Him, made in my own image. The implications of this were two-part...
Our words so often clamouring, noisy, ineffective - yet here was one whose voice shook a nation and made a queen tremble.
It has been promised to us, "Judgement must begin at the house of God." This is a difficult word, but one which I believe is true. Will you allow yourself to hear a difficult word for a moment?
This song is based on the themes from Psalm 27, Psalm 25:3, Isaiah 49:23 and Job 4:6. Be encouraged to wait on the Lord, to hope in His goodness and to find confidence in your reverence of Him as we sing together.
In Him was life, and the life was the light of men, and the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
And he prayed...be encouraged today as you listen to these verses and song about Elijah, the man with a nature like ours.
His love is enough, it is beyond our knowledge, and it leads us to be filled with all the fullness of God. Praise Him!
Help us to abide in You, Jesus. A short scripture reading, prayer and song about His abiding love.
Psalms 138 and Philippians 1:6 contain a similar promise - He perfects us. Be encouraged by this promise and meditate on it with this Scripture reading and short song.
To whom little is forgiven, the same loves little. Help us to see how much we've been forgiven!
Read Matthew Chapter 6 alongside listening to this song about how He really does provide all we need.
A time of worship, prayer and Bible reading focused around Psalm 25 and the way of the Lord and waiting upon Him.
