We’re coming up to a 3rd of the way through the challenge and Ben Cooley CEO of Hope for Justice gives us an insight into why he came up with the idea of the challenge, what it’s about and what it will do. 

We’ve been praying for these guys in Housegroup and i’ve only just caught up with the challenge online. This video is really powerful and important.

Zach Sobiech is a 17 year old diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer that takes the lives of a large percentage of its childhood victims. Given only months to live, Zach turned to music to say goodbye to those he loved. Even in the face of death, Zach continues to inspire those around him, showing through his daily actions that the secret to life is to live in the service of others and simply make people happy.

Zach turned 18 years old today and continues his fight against cancer with a smile that can change the world. Happy Birthday Zach! You are always in our thoughts!

Bradley Cooper and Jimmy faced off in a good, old fashioned game of Faceketball.

I’ve been looking for a good album for our Youth Group chill time for ages - they really don’t like my worship music, or any of my Josh Garrells albums, and I feel like it might be a bit problematic letting the Macklemore album loose in that setting (as much as I like it!) - this finally feels like my search is over, Satellite Kite is a beautiful, honest and happy medium between the two :-)
