Greetings wonderful listeners, this is Jon from The Art of Ministry Podcast.

Welcome to a trailer for something quite exciting; The Art of Ministry Podcast recently went to Japan, taking in such places as Tokyo, Kyoto and Electric Town... all culminating in a final journey to the World Expo Osaka!

On the way, plenty of amazing art was seen, and some fascinating examples of Christian history in Japan. One of the questions I was interested in was: what can we learn from this very different culture about how they use the arts... and what might be some interesting possibilities for the church?

So grab your rucksack and come along on a journey through Japan as we look at learnings that God has provided. I look forward to journeying with you very soon in 'The Japan Diaries'.

Oooooooooyeah it's a big show today BECAUSE.... Freezedream is here!

The Adelaide based electronic musician is making waves with his new album 'Lazarus'... but he's been innovating and creating in the electronic music field since being a young musician and setting challenges for himself in sound experimentation.

We were blessed to have a fantastic chat with Nathan (Freezedream) about his new album 'Lazarus' and how he uses his music to show the wonder of God.

You can find Nathan's music here:

• BandCamp - Freezedream
• SPOTIFY

Enjoy the new episode!

God bless, the AOM Crew (Jon + Lochy)

Hi! Jon here - just a quick PSA that Engage Work Faith (a group I work with) is holding a movie and discussion night in Adelaide, South Australia, for the new Bonhoeffer movie!

It will be held at Capri Cinema. Full details about the movie and tickets can be found at the Engage Work Faith website:https://engageworkfaith.org.au/bonhoeffer-movie-night/

About the event: Dietrich Bonhoeffer is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating figures in world history - a man who was both a pastor/theologian as well as being caught up in an assassination plot against Hitler. Come join Engage Work Faith for a private screening of this new film, followed by a panel of experts discussing a controversial figure who, with courage and conviction, deals with complex moral decisions.

If you're in Adelaide, I hope to see you there! Until next episode (which very soon) - have a wonderful day and God bless,

Jon (The Art of Ministry Podcast)
