Phil Pringle Podcast

Gratitude is everywhere, and yet so little of it lands anywhere. Phil Pringle makes a simple case that changes the whole practice: thankfulness has to be given to someone. To be thankful to nothing is not humility, it is impossibility. And when thanks is directed to God, it becomes the strongest antidote there is to a complaining, critical, sour spirit. Paul writes from prison that we give thanks always for all things, not simply in them, and he means it, because the chains that hold him become the very thing that carries the gospel into Caesar's household. Thanksgiving opens your eyes to the doors God is opening. Complaining opens your eyes only to everything that is wrong.
There are three places to aim it. Thank God for your past, and Jesus walks back into your history and heals what you have been carrying. Thank God for your present, for the beautiful and the basic alike, and you live in continual celebration rather than continual grievance. Thank God for your future, specifically, for the things you are still asking Him to do, because vocal faith gives thanks before the answer arrives. Ten lepers are healed and one returns. A nine year old girl lies in a coma, written off by every doctor in the room, and the word of the Lord says she will not die. Thanksgiving arranges the atmosphere around your life. Choose carefully what you fill it with.

There is a grief that has no funeral, no photographs and no words, and so it gets shut away in a small room where nobody has to look at it. Chris Pringle knows that room. She lost a baby as a young mum, went straight back to work, and told almost nobody for twenty years, until an ordinary evening at home opened the door she had kept firmly closed. What followed was not simply a memory returning. It was a revelation of a son alive, grown and laughing in heaven, and of a God who had been keeping him all along.
Jesus welcomes the little children, and heaven is fuller of them than most of us imagine. Chris and Phil tell the whole story here, from the sculpture of an angel carrying a child that Phil found in an American gallery, to the conference where women across an entire auditorium finally wept over losses they had never named, to the blue and pink cards that gave those children a name at last. This is grief brought into the light, mourning turned to dancing, and a promise worth holding onto: these children cannot wait to meet their mothers, and Christ is the door through which we come.

How do you stay peaceful in a world this chaotic? When worry arrives uninvited, like a storm blowing every fuse in the house, peace can feel impossible to manufacture. But peace was never meant to be a feeling you summon on demand. It's a person. Jesus is the Prince of Peace, and when you cast your care on Him in patient, specific prayer, a genuine transfer takes place and His peace settles your soul.
Phil Pringle shows you that faith is something you switch back on, intentionally, by speaking God's promises over your own heart until faith rises. From Romans 5:1 through the first steps of faith, desire and decision, you discover a God who does not merely soothe emotions but brings real solutions to real problems. Every problem exists for His glory, and a decisive, single-minded heart is where His guidance and stability are found. Delight yourself in Him, make your move, and watch peace hold you steady.

Why can't we switch off the worry? It washes in uninvited, spins the mind, and leaves an aching void no amount of noise or entertainment can fill. Phil Pringle traces anxiety to its deepest root: a quiet disconnection from God, an unsure feeling about whether we are truly right with Him. The answer is not striving to be good enough, because no one can be righteous enough to stand before a holy God on their own record. It is the gift of Christ, who lived a perfect life and imputes it to everyone who believes, so the Father's words over His Son become the Father's words over you. That is where peace floods the heart and travels through mind, soul, and body.
Faith is the foundation, and it is something you switch on by decision rather than wait to feel. When the doubt comes, and it will, you get up and believe again, just as Elijah prayed seven times before the rain broke and the widow won the judge through sheer persistence. Take up the Word as your sword, speak the promises of God over your soul, and watch the power of God move into whatever you are facing today.

What happens when someone goes looking for the supernatural in all the wrong places — and the real God meets them anyway? Phil Pringle shares the story of his own conversion at 19, when curiosity about Ouija boards opened a door to genuine spiritual torment, and a small Pentecostal church in Christchurch, New Zealand, became the place where everything turned. From a bike ride across town with his girlfriend Christine, to a room full of elderly believers laying hands on him, to the moment fear left and the Holy Spirit filled him — this is testimony that the same God who delivered then delivers now.
This story is more than nostalgia. It is a reminder that the power of the Holy Spirit is not theory — it transforms lives, breaks chains, and births revival. Within nine months of that night, over a thousand people came to Christ out of a single house. That same Spirit still moves. He still fills, still frees, still sends. Whatever door has been opened in your life, and whatever darkness has tried to settle in, the name of Jesus is still the name above every name. Listen, and let faith rise that God can do it again — in you, through you, and around you.

Phil Pringle explores Acts 2, describing the Holy Spirit’s outpouring at Pentecost, Peter’s Spirit-filled sermon, and the immediate response of 3,000 people coming to faith and being baptised.
The episode highlights the early church’s rhythms—apostles’ teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, prayer, daily meeting, and radical sharing—and calls listeners to live as a Spirit-filled, unified community every day.

Phil Pringle explores Acts 1–2, recounting the disciples gathered in unity, Jesus' family joining in prayer, and the sudden coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. He explains how the Spirit brought unique passion and power to each believer, enabled miraculous speech in other languages, and launched the church as witnesses to the nations.
Along the way Phil emphasizes the importance of assembling together, remaining unified, and recognizing the Spirit's work rather than mocking it, closing with encouragement to be filled with boldness and purpose.

Fifty days. That's the gap between an empty tomb and a room full of fire, and it's no accident. On Sinai, the law came down and three thousand people died. On Pentecost, the Spirit came down and three thousand people were born again. The same number, the same mountain of God, but two completely different kingdoms: one that brings death, and one that brings life. This is where the book of Acts begins, and Phil Pringle opens it up to show you why Luke, a doctor, a man of logic and science, ended up writing more about the Holy Spirit than almost anyone else in the New Testament. Because once you've seen what the Spirit actually does, you can't unsee it.
Jesus tells His disciples to wait in Jerusalem, and they pray for ten days straight before heaven breaks open. That same pattern is the invitation to you. The baptism of the Holy Spirit isn't a one-time charge. It's a life lived plugged in, recharged again and again in the presence of God. Without that power, we're a phone with a dead battery: full of potential, capable of nothing. With it, we become witnesses to the ends of the earth, ready for the day Jesus returns the same way He left. As you walk towards Pentecost Sunday, let your hunger rise. Wait on Him. Get filled again. The Spirit who fell then is still falling now.

Faith crashes are real, and nobody talks about them honestly enough. Every person who has ever prayed with everything they had — for healing, for restoration, for a door to open — knows what it feels like when the answer doesn't come. The question isn't whether it will happen. The question is what you do when it does.
Phil Pringle draws from decades of pastoral experience and his own story of public setback — including eight years of council rejections and front-page newspaper headlines — to offer something more powerful than polished optimism: a clear, grounded path back to faith. He teaches the difference between aggressive faith and quiet trust, reminding us that Romans 8 holds even when we can't see how. He points to Paul, bitten by a snake after surviving a shipwreck, choosing to see opportunity where others saw catastrophe — and sparking revival across an entire island. The breakthrough, Phil reminds us, always comes at the end of many attempts. The last blow of the hammer is only possible because of every blow that came before it. If you're in the middle of a faith crash, this is the word you need to hear today.
