KCC AoG Swindon Podcast

What did Jesus mean when He answered His disciples' questions about the end times? More importantly, what does His answer mean for believers living in today's increasingly uncertain world?
In this episode, we revisit Pastor Malcolm Macqueen's powerful sermon, "Answering Two Great Questions," preached at Kings Christian Centre Assembly of God, Old Town, Swindon, on Sunday 5 July 2026. Drawing from Matthew 24:1–3, we unpack Jesus' prophetic teaching and explore how His words speak directly into the challenges facing Christians today.
Together, we explore why only four of the twelve disciples sought deeper understanding, what it means to develop genuine spiritual curiosity and why understanding the times is essential for every follower of Christ. We also discuss the signs Jesus described, including deception, wars, famines, pestilences, earthquakes, persecution and the rebirth of Israel, while considering how these events affect not only the world around us but also our hearts, minds and relationships.
Most importantly, this conversation highlights the two responses available to every believer: fear or faith. Will we become spiritually asleep, overwhelmed by the chaos of this age, or will we remain awake, grounded in God's Word, strengthened through Christian fellowship and filled with hope as we look towards Christ's return?
Whether you're listening during your morning commute, your quiet time or with your small group, this episode will encourage you to ask deeper questions, seek God's wisdom and choose faith over fear in every season.
In this episode you'll discover:
Why spiritual curiosity is vital for Christian growth.
How Matthew 24 helps believers understand today's world.
The impact of global chaos on our personal lives and spiritual walk.
How to avoid becoming spiritually asleep.
Practical ways to stay awake, grow in faith and encourage others.
If this episode encourages you, be sure to listen to the full sermon and share this podcast with someone who needs hope, clarity and encouragement today.
"Don't respond in fear. Respond in faith."

What does it mean to hear the Father's approval over your life?
In this special Father's Day Deep Dive, we unpack Pastor Malcolm Macqueen's powerful message, A Father's Declaration on Father's Day, based on Matthew 3:17. Before Jesus preached a sermon, performed a miracle or fulfilled His earthly mission, the Father declared, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." Why is that significant, and what does it teach us about our own relationship with God today?
Join us as we explore the four truths the Father declared about His Son: His relationship with the Father, His reflective nature, His earthly reputation and His unwavering resolve to fulfil His mission. Along the way, we discuss the difference between independence and dependence on God, the challenge of living in a world with misplaced priorities and how believers can reflect the character of Christ in everyday life.
This conversation is both practical and encouraging, reminding us that everything flows from our relationship with our Heavenly Father. Whether you're navigating difficult relationships, carrying burdens, wrestling with life's pressures or simply wanting to grow deeper in your faith, this episode will inspire you to place God at the centre and pursue His approval above all else.
Be encouraged to live with purpose, walk in humility, serve others faithfully and finish your race well, just as Jesus did.
In This Episode:
Why God's approval comes from relationship before achievement
The meaning of an inseparable, intimate and interdependent relationship with God
Divine order versus the world's upside-down priorities
Reflecting the nature, words, works and wisdom of Christ
The power of humility, servanthood and submission
How to develop a Christ-like resolve to fulfil God's purpose for your life
Why your past should be a place of reference, not a place of residence
A thoughtful and faith-building conversation that will challenge your perspective, strengthen your walk with God and encourage you to pursue the Father's heart.

In this thought-provoking Deep Dive episode, we unpack Pastor Rob Baldwin's powerful sermon, Progressive Prayer, delivered at KCC AoG Church in Old Town, Swindon on 7th June 2026. Drawing from 1 Timothy 2:1-4 and the remarkable journey of the prophet Habakkuk, this conversation explores a life-changing truth: prayer is not a single event, but a progression.

Why do some situations seem to get worse after we pray?

In this episode, we reflect on Brother Simon Baboo’s powerful sermon, Finding Favour in the Sight of God, delivered at KCC AoG Church, Old Town, Swindon.
What does it really mean to be blessed? Is it answered prayer, open doors and breakthrough, or is it something far deeper? Through the lives of Noah, Moses, Ruth, the thief on the cross and the invitation of Hebrews 4:16, this episode explores how favour with God is found through daily choices: walking with Him, seeking His presence, obeying His Word, trusting Jesus as Lord and coming boldly to the throne of grace.
This is a heartfelt reminder that God’s favour isn’t something we earn through striving. It’s found in relationship, surrender, prayer and staying planted in the vineyard of God’s people.

In this special podcast recap, we revisit Pastor Malcolm Macqueen’s sermon, A Village called Bethany, preached at KCC AoG Church, Old Town, Swindon. Looking at John 12:1–2, this message explores why Jesus chose Bethany in the days before the cross and what that means for us today. Bethany was a place of acceptance, adoration and ascension — a place where Jesus was welcomed, worshipped and honoured.

What does the resurrection of Jesus really change?
In this Easter podcast episode, we explore Pastor Malcolm Macqueen’s sermon, The Lord is Risen Indeed, preached at KCC AoG Church, Old Town, Swindon on Easter Sunday, 5th April 2026. Centred on Luke 24:34, this message looks at the resurrection through three powerful responses: consternation, confirmation and confidence.
We reflect on how Jesus’ enemies were unsettled by what they could not control, how His followers were overwhelmed by confusion and grief, and how the risen Christ brought undeniable confirmation that turned fear into bold confidence. It’s a thoughtful and faith-building journey through the events of Easter, showing that the resurrection is not just a historical truth, but a living reality that still speaks into our struggles, our doubts and our hope today.
This episode is for anyone wanting to think more deeply about Easter, the cross and the victory of Jesus over death, hell and the grave. More than that, it’s an invitation to look beyond the problem in front of you and fix your eyes on the risen Saviour, who still brings peace, clarity and confidence to His people.
Listen in, be encouraged and consider again the life-changing truth: the Lord is risen indeed.

It opens up the deeper meaning behind that moment, revealing Christ’s humility, His perfect timing, His unwavering purpose and His mighty power.
