Welcome to Listening with God

Listening to God with Pastor Richard is a regular interaction with God....

The aim is to reflect on what is God saying and doing, how does what God says and acts affect who you are, how we see others and interact with them.

At times our interaction with God may lead to some instance response....other times it may lead to us pondering, thinking and questioning.....

Day 3: Romans 1:18-32
