What happens when a young family leaves a familiar ministry, trusted friends and a settled life to answer what they believe is God's call to a new city? In this special edition of All Things Considered, Owen and Laura share the story of their first year at St Thomas Church, Swansea. Through personal diary recordings made at key moments along the way, they reflect on the challenges and joys of leaving Oxford, settling into a historic church community, and discovering what it means to follow a calling into the unknown. Alongside their reflections, we hear from members of the congregation, church leaders and friends who offer their own perspectives on life at St Thomas. From licensing day and Christmas celebrations to moments of doubt, difficult decisions, funerals, baptisms and unexpected highlights, this programme captures the realities of ministry and family life during a year of significant change. All Things Considered: Diary of Our First Year in Swansea explores what it means to put down new roots, trust God's leading and look to the future with hope.
