This is the final episode of the first series of THE BIG C IN ME PODCAST, and I am excited to share my chat with Goff Hope with you.

Goff is a friend, pastor, author and cancer fighter as I am, and he discusses with me the challenges of both cancer diagnosis and losing a loved one very suddenly to cancer. 

Goff wrote the book HOPE WINS, where he draws on his own personal experiences, including the tragedy of losing his daughter and his own battle with cancer. Goff shares how holding on to the Christian hope of an eternal future transformed the darkest moments of his life.

I am joined today by someone who, like me, was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer in 2023. 

Dave Kruczek works for Grace church and leads the leadership (leadership) team there. In 2023, after my own diagnosis, I became aware of Dave's situation, as we are both part of the ChristCentral family of Churches, I so reached out as we both battled Colon Cancer.

I am joined today by someone who watched my YouTube videos, reached out, and whom I subsequently met. In fact, we ended up sitting next to each other in the Chemo Suite whilst getting our infusions. 

Dharmendra is originally from Malawi but has lived in the UK all his life. He was born a Hindu and, as part of his life journey, found faith in Jesus Christ. 

Like me, he was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer, and this is our conversation about all of that and more.

I am joined on this Podcast by Julian Adams, an international prophet, church leader, church planter and friend. 

I have known Julian and his wife, Katia, for many years. I have seen the accuracy of his prophetic gift and enjoyed his fantastic insight through his teaching and personal input.  

After I was diagnosed, many Christians said to pick up old prophecies and seek new ones regarding my future. I decided to speak to Julian to ask about the prophetic in these life-and-death situations. I did not want to look to the prophetic like a crystal ball to tell me my future, but I also wanted to help people as they sought to prophesy into my particular circumstance.      

This podcast is just Julian and me chatting as friends about this journey. We would love for you to join us.
