The Biblical Preaching Podcast
Welcome to The Biblical Preaching Podcast:
Preaching and teaching the Bible can feel like a lonely path to travel and there is always so much more to learn.
Join the conversation for preachers hosted by Peter Mead and Mike Chalmers, Cor Deo mentors, as they discuss all aspects of preaching and share encouragement for all involved in biblical ministry.
Do not travel alone! Instead, join in the conversation with The Biblical Preaching Podcast as we all keep on growing as preachers and encourage one another in preaching that points to Jesus, transforms lives, builds churches and changes the world!
