Compel Podcast Season 3 Launches September 1

Season three focuses specifically on what biblical truths motivate us to share the gospel and be ministers of reconciliation.

The Compel podcast exists to engage Canadian women with the biblical basis for missions and connect them to ordinary women who are serving around the world and sharing God’s heart for the nations. Our desire is to come alongside our sisters in this journey, and share how women can be involved in spreading the gospel story to the ends of the earth.

Listen to the Compel podcast on Apple podcast, Spotfiy, Google podcast, Stitcher, TuneIn or compelpodcast.ca.
