Episode 19: Bishop Eleanor Sanderson - Prayer, Fire, and the Courage to Speak

What happens when a preacher shaped by student hostels, Pacific villages, and the aftermath of the Christchurch attacks steps into the pulpit? Bishop Eleanor Sanderson brings a rare mix of tenderness and power—prayer that burns deep, vulnerability that risks everything, and a global vision that refuses to shrink God to one culture.In this episode, she talks mission as apprenticeship, preaching as community life, leading through crisis, praying inside a mosque, and learning to hear God’s voice in both silence and tears. It’s preaching with guts. Preaching with joy. Preaching that leans hard on the Spirit.Come and hear a bishop who doesn’t just prepare sermons—she wrestles with them, weeps over them, and sometimes proclaims them like a wave that’s been building for days.This is a conversation for anyone who wants to preach with depth, clarity, courage, and hope.
