Testimonies / faith journeys - home page
Not every faith story, or testimony, is a straight line from unbelief to Christian faith. Our journeys start from the moment we're born, and continue as we grow in the love and knowledge of God, often with many twists and turns along the way.
We've curated a series of videos to encourage you whether you've been a believer for years, or wouldn't call yourself a Christian, or are somewhere else along your faith journey.
