In this episode, Dan Lee, Helen Carr and Robin Dillamore introduce the theme of this series, Practising the Presence of God, as well as briefly introducing Presence House of Worship, the community behind these podcasts.
This is the first in a series of episodes which will be published every two weeks during the last quarter of 2025. In this first episode, we talk about why this theme has become so important to us, and what our own experience has been of seeking to live in a continual awareness of God's presence with us. Two books in particular are referred to - The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence (c.1614-1691), a French Carmelite monk; and Letters by a Modern Mystic by Frank Laubach (1884-1970).
(Please note that, towards the end of this episode, a brief reference is made to the International House of Prayer in Kansas City, and that this conversation was recorded shortly before news of serious allegations began to emerge concerning Mike Bickle, the founder of that ministry.)
