Episode 97: Pete Greig

In this episode Pete Greig talks about the paradox of the Kingdom, serving the Good Shepherd and the bleeding Lamb, finding diverse perspectives in the church, the importance of prayer, and hope for what can come out of Waverley Abbey.

Pete Greig is the increasingly bewildered founder of 24-7 Prayer an international, interdenominational movement of prayer, mission and justice which has been praying night-and-day for more than twenty years, and has reached more than half the nations on earth. He and his wife Sammy, a professional counsellor, serve as Senior Pastors of Emmaus Rd, a church with congregations in Guildford, Woking and Aldershot, England. Pete co-hosts the Lectio 365 daily devotional, is a Director of Waverley Abbey Trust, is an Ambassador for the NGO Tearfund, and a member of The Order of the Mustard Seed. His award-winning books include Red Moon Rising, God on Mute and How To Pray. Pete and Sammy split their time between a barge on the River Wey, south of London, and an island retreat off the south coast of England where they host and mentor leaders.
