    Episode 6: Ram Gidoomal CBE - Preaching with Courage, Influence and Cultural Humility

    ⚠️ Content Notice This episode contains sensitive discussions about suicide, extreme poverty, and honour based violence. These themes may be distressing for some listeners. If anything in this episode affects you, reach out to trusted friends, family, or professional helplines in your area. You’re not alone. A refugee boy from Kenya walks into a London pub… and meets Jesus. That moment sparks a life that races across continents, boardrooms, slums, and sanctuaries. In this episode of Preaching Well, Ram Gidoomal takes us from the Silk Road to Southall corner shops, from first class flights to the heartbreak of the Dharavi slum, from helping build a £130 million business to walking away because God broke his heart open. Ram talks about home and homesickness, honour and courage, food and faith, preaching across cultures, and the one sermon that rewired his life forever. It’s raw. It’s global. It’s full of fire, humour, surprise, and hope.

    Episode 5: Revd Dr Kelly Brown Douglas - Preaching Justice and Hope: Faith, Resiliance & Theology

    What happens when a preacher carries a whole people’s story into the pulpit? In this episode of Preaching Well, the Revd Dr Kelly Brown Douglas—trailblazing priest, womanist theologian, and voice of moral fire—opens her heart and her history. She takes us from a rainy Dayton street to Harlem classrooms, from enslaved ancestors to vigils, from lectionary wrestling to preaching with butterflies in her stomach and a cloud of witnesses at her back. Kelly reveals the truth she brings to every sermon: God’s justice breathes in every life, and hope rises from stories the world tried to silence. Bold. Tender. Unfiltered. Hit play.
