The Church in the Wilderness

What if your wilderness season isn't a setback but God's preparation?

In this episode of the KCC Deep Dive Podcast, we unpack Pastor Malcolm Macqueen's inspiring sermon, "The Church in the Wilderness" preached at KCC AoG Church, Old Town, Swindon, on Sunday 12th July 2026. Drawing from Acts 7:34–38, we explore how Israel's forty-year journey through the wilderness mirrors the Christian life today.

Discover why God delivered Israel from Egypt in one night, yet spent forty years removing Egypt from their hearts, and what that means for anyone navigating seasons of uncertainty, change or spiritual growth. Together, we examine the purpose of the wilderness, the significance of the Tabernacle at the centre of the camp, the importance of God's presence and how believers are called to live as pilgrims with Christ at the centre of every area of life.

You'll also hear practical reflections on surrender, guidance, sanctification and why the Church's greatest strength has never been its programmes, but the unmistakable presence of God. Whether you're facing a personal transition, searching for direction or simply wanting to deepen your understanding of Scripture, this conversation offers biblical insight, encouragement and hope.

Join us as we discover that the wilderness is not the end of the journey. It is often the place where God shapes His people, reveals His presence and prepares them for His promises.
