Beloved Rising is a podcast born from the woods of the North East of England, where a church has taken root without walls, windows, or barriers.

Here, laughter and chanted psalms drift through the trees like incense. Barefoot toddlers wander between hammocks. Stew simmers on the fire. Sermons are preached from the forest floor. Eucharist is shared from tree stumps. And at the centre of it all - always - is Jesus.

Magdalene Community Church is a deeply rooted, intentional community of pilgrims, doubters, dreamers, question-askers and friends. Liturgical and slow-paced. Simple and spacious. Ancient and alive. We are Anglican, somehow and we are discovering again what church can be when it is freed from performance, productivity, and fear.

This podcast is for those who still hope there is a different way of being church.

For those who love the creeds but struggle with institutions.

For those who have been hurt, tired, excluded, or quietly drifting and for those who never thought church was for them in the first place.

Through reflections, conversations, prayer, scripture, and stories from the edges, Beloved Rising explores faith that is embodied, communal, and honest. A faith shaped by mud and mercy, by ritual and rest, by justice and joy. A faith that believes God is not distant, but present already at work among the trees, the tables, and the broken-open places.

If you are longing for renewal, gentleness, courage, and hope

if you believe love is still at the heart of the Gospel

if you are curious about what it might mean to follow Jesus together, differently -

You are welcome here.

Take off your shoes.

You’re standing on holy ground.

This is Beloved Rising.

  • Sacred Bodies
    Mar 8 2026

    In this episode of Beloved Rising, Rachael and Mandy explore what it might mean to take our bodies seriously again.

    For centuries, Christian spirituality has often treated the body with suspicion - something to control, ignore, or overcome. But what if our bodies are not a problem to solve, but sacred places where God is already at work?

    Drawing on scripture, lived experience, and the slow wisdom of embodied faith, they reflect on how Magdalene Community Church is learning to honour bodies as good, holy, and worthy of care. From rest and movement to disability, trauma, and dignity, this conversation gently challenges the idea that holiness lives only in our heads.

    This episode is for anyone who has felt disconnected from their body, pressured to perform spirituality, or curious about a faith that welcomes our whole selves.

  • Adventures In New Monasticism
    Mar 8 2026

    In this episode of Beloved Rising, Rachael and Mandy wonder out loud about a quieter revolution happening in small pockets of the church.

    Across the world, ordinary people are rediscovering ancient rhythms of prayer, shared life, hospitality, and simplicity - sometimes called new monasticism.

    But what does that look like in the messy reality of modern life, families, work, and community? What might it look like for MCC.

    Together they reflect on the lived experience of Magdalene Community Church members prior to joining MCC: the dreams, the experiments, the failures, and the surprising beauty of trying to live differently in a world that often pulls us in the opposite direction.

    This episode isn’t a blueprint or a set of answers. It’s an invitation into the wondering - offered for anyone who feels called beyond just the public services and gatherings we call "church" who may be dreaming similar dreams.
