The need to rest is a big feature of contemporary life. In the midst of these changing times, many people have been returning to the wisdom of the Sabbath, and learning to lean in to this ancient, delight-filled practice of Godâs people.
Here at Venn, Sabbath-keeping is something weâve been embracing. Weâve been learning about the Sabbath personally, and thinking and writing about what good Sabbath practice looks like. You can find some of this work in our new book How to Sabbath Well: Learning Godâs Rhythms of Rest.
In the first episode of this two-part series on the Sabbath, Sam and John unpacked how the Sabbath is a practice of freedom for life with God. Here in Part Two, they get into the practical nitty-gritty. What does Sabbath-keeping actually look like? How firm is the command to rest? What about shift-work, or life with small children? How important is gathering for worship? Sam and John explore all these questions, talking about four key Sabbath postures: ceasing, resting, embracing, and feasting.
Perhaps youâve tried a Sabbath, and found it all a bit hard. Perhaps youâre keen to sabbath, but donât know where to begin. Either way, this is a rich, genuinely helpful conversation.

Itâs a commonplace of contemporary life that weâre struggling to rest. Whether youâre a student, a worker, or a parent of small children, resting well is a challenge. We live busy lives and there is so much to do. Anxious, we fiddle with our work/life balance, we try to schedule âme timeâ, but itâs all, well, a bit hard.
In this context, it might seem counter-intuitive to talk about the Sabbath. Given how white-knuckled time management has become for many of us, how is a regular rule of rest going to help? The Sabbath is, however, what we need. In order to live wellâin order to flourish togetherâwe need to develop a thick, lived understanding of this ancient, delight-filled practice.
Here at Venn, Sabbath-keeping is something weâve been leaning into, most recently in our new book How to Sabbath Well: Learning Godâs Rhythms of Rest. In this first episode of a two-part series, John Dennison and Venn Presents host Sam Bloore talk about our need for rest and the rich and transformative practice of the Sabbath. They explore this profound theme of Scripture, and how the Sabbath calls us to live in light of Godâs creative and redemptive purposes. If youâve toyed with the idea of Sabbath rest, but have never really understood what it is or how to do it, this conversation is for you. Sabbath is a practice of freedom for life with God.

What is the nature of the artistâs vocation? And how exactly does art convey meaning? What might it mean for Christians to be artists? Such questions are commonplace when it comes to faith and art. Itâs also questions like these that have shaped the thought and career of writer, philosopher and teacher Dr Adrienne Dengerink-Chaplin.
Dr Chaplin was in New Zealand earlier this year on a teaching and speaking tour, which included the Venn Conversation Evening, âWhy Art and Artists Matterâ. The next day, we were fortunate enough to get some time in the studio with her to continue the conversation. In this special one-off episode of Venn Presents, Sam Bloore talks with Adrienne about how she came to be fascinated with art and about exactly how art conveys meaning. Their lively and wide-ranging conversation delves into some of the thorny questions of faith and art: on how the gospel can shape art practice, on art and Christian witness, and on the attitude of churches to artists. Adrienne offers a refreshingly grounded take on things. At its best, art is not an exceptional calling but simply a distinct out working of the human vocation: it can, as she puts it, be âhonest labourâ.
Whether youâre an artist yourself, a keen gallery goer, or just someone who loves thoughtful chat, youâll love this episode.

Welcome to part four in our series of conversations with women and men who are seeking to follow Christ in the whole of life. In this episode, host Sam Bloore is joined by Mark Mayhew to talk about his journey of understanding how the gospel speaks to everything we do, and how God has drawn him deeper and deeper into a gospel life.
Mark Mayhew is founder and director of Peregrine, a purpose-driven strategy and ventures firm. He trained in Civil Engineering and spent the early part of his career working in management consulting, before moving to Vancouver, Canada to pursue a Master of Arts in Marketplace Theology at Regent College. Mark is the co-creator of ReFrame, a 10-week, film-based series that helps Christians connect faith with all of life, and he is the former director of the Regent College Marketplace Institute. Mark is passionate about helping people integrate Christian faith with the whole of life. He loves working with visionary people to solve strategic problems and creatively explore how purpose can shape everything we do. Mark is married to Jenn, and they live in London with their two children, Emily (4) and Will (1). They worship at King Cross Church in London.
In this conversation, Mark recounts how deep questions about his work and purpose led him to theological study; this was not study for ordained ministry, however, but a theological reframing of a call to pursue Godâs purposes for business. And this is the call that continues to shape Markâs life now. He reflects on what Scripture has to say about work and enterprise, on the fact that business is not morally neutral, and on the ways in which God has led him over the years. Sam also talks about with Mark about his personal life: about suffering, singleness and marriage, and parenting later in life.
This episode is jam-packed with Markâs hard-won learning and wisdom, and he communicates it so well. So, tune in and school upâthis is a great listen.

Mark Compton started his career as a screen printer, working for 12 years with a company that specialised in fine-art screen prints for many of the dealer galleries in Aotearoa, New Zealand. He then worked for three years as an artist himself, specialising in paint and print-making, producing numerous paintings of native birds, cheeky nods to the unfolding recession, and much more. Mark is also a qualified builder, providing another context to make, problem-solve, and create beauty; building has also proved fertile ground for Markâs creative lens to grow and be re-formed.
Currently youâll find Mark slinging coffees alongside his wife, Naomi, in their coffee caravan, Fred. Heâs also leaning back into the world of art-making and image creation after some years away. Mark and Naomi live by the beach in Orewa, north of Auckland, and have two children, Adley and Jack.
This conversation offers an absorbing insight into the journey of a contemporary Christian artist. So, slow down, press play and enjoy. Or, as Mark puts it, âgive it a nudgeâ.

Welcome to part two of our new series of conversations with women and men who are seeking to follow Christ in the whole of life. Today, host Sam Bloore is joined by Dr. Jin Russell to talk about what a "portfolio career" means, why she's so passionate about children and families, and what it means to pursue excellence rather than success.
Throughout her life and career, Jin has responded to a call to know, understand, and care for the health and wellbeing of children and families. She is a Consultant Developmental Paediatrician at Starship Children's Health and a Community Paediatrician with Planning, Funding, and Outcomes at WaitematÄ District Health Board. Outside of her clinical work, Jin is working on a Ph.D. with "Growing Up in New Zealand" the country's largest contemporary longitudinal study of child development. Her research in epidemiology looks at the impact of poverty on children. With the arrival of Covid-19 in Aotearoa two years ago brought another aspect to Jin's public work: thanks to her expertise in paediatric care and epidemiologyâand a calm, thoughtful approach to good communicationâJin has become a significant voice in traditional and social media, communicating the needs of children in the nation's Covid-19 response.
In this episode, Jin shares openly about her career to date and what energises her busy work and home life: she describes being sustained by God's grace, walking in-step with the Holy Spirit, and drawing on her commitment to the health and well-being of others. She also shares how her passion for child and family care extends into the joys and challenges of home life, raising two young boys with her husband Matheson and serving on the board of the Parenting Place.
This episode offers a powerful and compelling picture of friendship with God, in the midst of the challenges and joys of working life. We know you'll enjoy it.

Host Sam Bloore talks with Rebecca Dow about education, policy, and living well as a single woman deeply committed to family and community. Rebecca lectures in education at Laidlaw College, helping to form the next generation of teachers. Her experience in education has been extensive and diverse: she has been a teacher, Deputy Principal, consultant, and policy researcher and advisor to the Spokesperson for Education. Here, she shares her vision for education: for Rebecca, good learning is not simply about information, or instruction, but is a matter of whole-person formation. This holistic vision of life also marks her journey as a single woman. With disarming openness and joy, she talks with Sam about what sheâs learned about living richly as a single woman who cares deeply about the Church, about community, and about family. Rebeccaâs commitment to community is reflected in her governance experience in both the education and not-for-profit sectors; among her current roles, she is the Acting Chair of the Venn Board.
This is a conversation charged with a quiet, delighted awareness of Godâs leading, and of our call to seek the flourishing of our wider communities. Itâs a crackerâwe know youâll enjoy it.Itâs not hard to find podcasts with experts, or full of information. But here weâre interested in the whole person at work, rest, and play; weâll be exploring how faith in Christ has unfolded in their lives. As the conversation rolls, we hope youâll catch a glimpse of how deep and wide Godâs purposes are for each of us.

Welcome back to our latest podcast series, The Good of Work. In this third and final episode, Sam Bloore is joined by John Dennison and Olivia Burne, who hosts the conversation.
Previously, weâve explored the meaning of work in light of Godâs purposes for creation, and weâve looked hard at the ways in which work has become corrupted and distorted by the fall. But what about the good of work now? What has God done to redeem our work, and what exactly might that mean for our 9-5 lives? How should we work? What counts as good work? Andâbeyond a pay-check, the common good, or personal satisfactionâwhat are we working for?
Building on our latest edition of Common Ground, âChrist redeems our Work,' this conversation takes us deep into these questions. Join host Olivia Burne, Sam Bloore, and John Dennison, as they complete the picture for usâcome and explore the good of work.You can listen to the Spotify playlist, A Meditation on Work, here.

Work is a key aspect of human flourishing. Indeed, as we explored in our first episode in this series, âThe Good of Work,â it is part of our vocation as human beings. But to only speak of the goodness of work is to neglect more pressing questions.
Even when we understand Godâs intentions for work, many of us experience it as difficult; at times, it is futile or senseless. Whether weâre confronting the way elite sport misshapes identity, or the often emotionally and physically taxing toil of tertiary studies, we all have encountered sin and brokenness within our work places. As Olivia Burne puts it in her recent Common Ground article, work is âa gathering point for some of our deepest pains and longings, and the makeshift altar of many of our false gods.â
We find ourselves wondering, what has gone wrong with our work?
In part two of our Good of Work series, Olivia Burne and Dr Nathan McLellan join Sam Bloore to discuss how the fall has marred and shaped our work. Looking to the first scriptural example of collective work at the tower of Babel, Olivia and Nathan explore some of the ways the fall has influenced our labour in the world: through the shaping of our identity, through work becoming a type of idolatry, and through the oppression and injustice that can flow out from our organisational systems.
Join us for this latest episode, as we seek to understand the Good of Work in light of fallen reality.Copyright Notes:

Itâs striking: we spend the majority of our waking hours working to secure what we need, and (hopefully) contributing to the flourishing of our common life. And yet when it comes to understanding the good of our work, most of us mumble, or reach for a clichĂ©. What does God make of your work, and why does he care? What does it mean to work well, and why should I care?
In the first of a new podcast series, Sam Bloore is joined by Andrew Shamy and Julia Bloore to explore together the good of work. From the night kitchen of KFC to early starts in kidsâ TV, this lively conversation sets contemporary ideas about work within the expansive and transforming vision of Godâs purposes for creation. Drawing on the latest edition of Common Ground, as well as on recent teaching, this podcast invites you to think again about work, and working well: what it is, what it has to do with God, and why it matters.

In the second episode of this two-part series, Sam Bloore and Andrew Shamy continue their deep dive into the life and imagination of J.R.R. Tolkien. In 2020, Andrew offered a Conversation Evening and article, titled "There and Back Again: How Reading Tolkien Can Restore the World to Us." In his talk and article, Andrew helped us see how Tolkien's imagination and the genre of fantasy literature offers recovery of meaning in the world, an escape or flight to reality, and consolation in the midst of our deep longings for beauty, goodness, courage, and hope.
Now, in this conversation, Sam and Andrew continue further into the life of Tolkien, exploring the events, relationships, and deep Christian faith that shaped so much of the author' writing. We've released both episodes together so you can enjoy the full conversation during this Summer break (for those in the southern hemisphere) and Winter rest (for those in the northern hemisphere).

In our first three-part series, Sam talks with Venn's CEO, the Revd Dr Nathan McLellan, about the doctrine of Ascension, Pentecost, and the Church. Earlier this year, Nathan wrote a piece for Common Ground exploring the "forgotten doctrine" of the ascension and what it means to call Christ our victorious king and high priest. In this first episode, Sam and Nathan talk more about the ascension.
