About this podcast
Welcome to the audio podcast of Gracecity, a community of faith in Auckland New Zealand. Every Sunday, we‘ve got a life-giving message for you. At Gracecity, we believe we’re called to join God’s renewal of people and places. God’s heart is for restoration and He invites us to partner with Him. We challenge division and participate in a community that empowers and equips people to live out their faith in our world. We see no line between faith and life, believing that at work, home and church, God is working in us and through us.
