When did you last make a promise? How did it go? Ed’s promise had him dashing across London while Jam had a great time with a clear plastic cyclone of dust. God’s people have been making promises but they’re not going very well. Fun facts about party food, including the origin story of the Hawaiian pizza. Such a packed show – with a big chunk of Nehemiah, a briefing and a sketch - and a brilliant Awesome Cutlery song about how we are a Good News Family. This is God’s Big Build #5. Only one left!

Stories of war, battles won by cats, soldiers pretending to be more soldiers and the second most valuable painting in the world. Except it isn’t. With a short prayer - Strengthen my hands! - Nehemiah keeps going for a long time as he contends with stinking fibs made up out of the heads of his enemies. Nehemiah doesn’t really want to be king, does he? A briefing, a sketch and a classic banger from Awesome Cutlery. Find more resources on God's Big Build HERE.

Can you eat upside down? When your tummy rumbles, does that mean you’re hungry? And what do you do when the food runs out? Nehemiah had it all to do in Jerusalem as he led the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s walls and the gates (including the Dung Gate). And he shows us how we look after in the church for God’s glory. There’s a sketch, a briefing and a sneaky preview of a brand new track from a brand new album from Dumbrocks!
