Into the Pray

Nick & Mairi Franks

“Breaching the Chaos of the Church” is the phrase we use regarding the Body of Christ to acknowledge that there is both a problem - a gargantuan one - and a stunningly blessed Hope. If you’re fed up, sick and tired of “church” and “christian spirituality” - and we expect you are - and if you’re also gagging for the Coming King - and we hope you are - this podcast will be a timely prescription for you.

Maintaining the Evangelical Faith Today | An Address of Martin-Lloyd Jones (1952)
Hello!In this week’s episode of Into the Pray, I drive to a local quiet spot on the east coast of north Scotland to read for you a 1953 address of Dr Martin Lloyd-Jones that ultimately caused John Stott, British Theologian from Cambridge, to publicly rebuke him.Lloyd-Jones disagreed with ecumenicalism and the socio-political gospel of  Billy Graham so strongly that he chose to face the ignominy that resulted from distancing himself from them rather than falling into the reality of Galatians 1:7-8.Think along with me — are the attitudes which are central to the ecumenical agenda — in the Church and within Christian homes — really the foundations of faithful Christian relationships that are true to the gospel of Jesus Christ? What really of these “agree to disagree” agendas that cast a very dark shadow over those who refuse to agree that some matters, and some behaviours, shouldn’t ever be expected to change?Listen to what Lloyd-Jones warned the church about in 1953.See info on our new film series here and here.

Our Podcast | From The Temple of Mammon (PodVlog#2) [w/ Nick & Mairi]
Hello!The “Into the Pray” podcast lands this week in a new “on the run” vlog-form. Please let us know in the comments section if you like it!The YouTube version of this podcast is here. Please don't forget to subscribe and click the bell for notifications. Our main giving page is here. We especially need help with a new filming project that is arguably the most important project we will ever produce. We need financial backing but also expertise from film-makers/editors. Episode #2 of these new PodVlogs is from a very busy shopping centre and coffee shop just yesterday on Good Friday, (we resisted the delicious cakes on Episode #2 of these new PodVlogs, discussing the Iranian church and the unchanging nature of biblical theology and doctrine, is from a very busy shopping centre and coffee shop on Good Friday, (we resisted the delicious cakes on offer).Our conversation today followed a meeting that Nick had this week and that once again brought into distressing focus the chaos of the Church. Suffice to say, featuring Jesus' words in John 8, "Let’s Agree to Disagree” is the demonic inscription chiselled over millennia deeply into our altars of self. But Jesus dismantles all by the blast of His merciful Word…Maranatha?Love, Nick & MairiOur flagship content: 🚢 🔥 2023: The Glorious Few2022: Homosexual Household Disrupted2022: Repent Now; He Loves You. 2021: Calling YESHUA2020: The Draft - A Conscription of Conscience 2019: Body Zero - Radical Preparation for the Return of Christ2018: The Bothy Sessions - Mental Health & the Church2016: Jesus ComeSupport the Show.If you would like to support this podcast, you can do so here.
Why Have We Stopped Eating McDonald's & Shopping w/ Amazon? (feat. Nick & Mairi)

Why Have We Stopped Eating McDonald's & Shopping w/ Amazon? (feat. Nick & Mairi)
Greetings All![Apologies that the sound isn't as good as we would like it to be while we're trying to make the most of our current set-up].Nick recently had a significant conversation with a dairy farmer, Edward, while he milked his cows. Edward opened up about the inordinate pressures that he and his family are being put under by the godless government of the land which now means that a bottle of water is more expensive (of more worth) than a bottle of milk. But what does this have to do with eating at McDonald's and shopping with Amazon? In today's episode of Into the Pray  we explain why we've recently stopped eating McDonald's and shopping with Amazon. What are ultra-processed foods (UPFs)? Is Amazon's customer service really as good as we're all led to believe that it is? Is McDonald's OK to eat?Podcast title music can be listened to here. Would you consider supporting our work? Neither of us now have salaries and the work we are doing in the background to produce all that we do is significant. You can support us here. Thank you!Also of note: Back in the spring of this I year, I published the seminal work, "The Glorious Few: Redeeming Radicalisation in the Kingdom of God." In the period of 2 weeks following publishing, several major things happened all at once that could have happened at any point in the previous 9 years. The disruption of the Lord culminated in Mairi resigning from her role as a Teacher of French in a large secondary school in Edinburgh and was a disruption that I wrote about prophetically in the book's epilogue. This episode of the Into the Pray podcast is Mairi's testimony and, as the final podcast in our home where the podcast began, please let me encourage you to listen with a prayerful heart. Perhaps you'd also share the episode to your networks. Finally, what would Nick say to your local church and leadership? The 1% Church. Thank you for listening. Maranatha!

Greetings All![Apologies that the sound isn't as good as we would like it to be while we're trying to make the most of our current set-up].In today's episode of Into the Pray,  Mairi and Nick provide a follow-on from this YouTube a few days ago that probes the general response of church pastors to the prospect of radical change.

Greetings All!Firstly, would you consider supporting our full-time ministry as we head into another increasingly "radicalised" year of service for the soon-to-come Lord Jesus? Neither of us now have salaries and the work we are doing in the background to produce all that we do is significant. You can support us here. Thank you!Podcast title music can be listened to here. In today's episode of Into the Pray, we sit down in Costa Coffee with a microphone to have a prayerful conversation 4+ months on having "left home and city" as a result of the stand we're taking concerning the chaos of the Church. We've tried to be honest, gracious and encouraging with a very niche audience mainly in mind. We hope that the public ambience isn't distracting from what we share. By providing something akin to a general update/catch-up, we talk about: — Life since leaving home and city— Reading the Bible twice in 4 months— Three key verses of Scripture: Ezekiel 12:4; Hebrews 10:34; 1 Thessalonians 5:14.— Prophetic encouragement and challenge, especially for those experiencing the inner discomfort (and even turmoil) as to if/how you are to separate yourself from all forms and communities of spiritual compromise. — Brief feature of a rather forthright naysayer called Rosemary.Also of note: Back in the spring of this I year, I published the seminal work, "The Glorious Few: Redeeming Radicalisation in the Kingdom of God."

What Should Happen When Christian Leaders Fall? | Bible Study
Dear AllThank you for listening to Into the Pray — our little offering of sanity amidst the ramping chaos of the Church and the anti-Christ world.Wasn't Ravi Enough? is the title of one of the chapters in my latest book that you can see here. The question as to whether or not the scale and shock of the RZIM scandal was sufficient to rouse the Church from comatose is rhetorical; of course it wasn't. Neither was COVID-19, church closures and the emergence of totalitarian governments. Nevertheless, if we are going to take Jesus' return seriously, the question remains: what should happen when Christian leaders fall?The YouTube version of this podcast here.

It’s a tender picture: a fine Christian lady in her ninth decade struggling to grasp the need of God to “smite” His Bride.Uncertainty about this is completely understandable but this video below addresses what is now a chasm of more than 3 years in church history.It is insane to ask the question in the middle of the night and then, come the morning, refuse to listen to the answer.Thank you for listening.

When the term "wounded prophet" is used, often by church pastors, what is really going on?Of the biblical Prophets, Abraham Heschel wrote:"The sorts of crimes and even the amount of delinquency that fill the prophets of Israel with dismay do not go beyond that which we regard as normal, as typical ingredients of social dynamics. To us a single act of injustice – cheating business, exploitation of the poor – is slight; to the prophets, a disaster. To us injustice is injurious to the welfare of the people; to the prophets it is a deathblow to existence: to us, an episode; to them, a catastrophe, a threat to the world."Thank you...and thank you for listening.

"Touch some Christians, or Christian institutions, and let the touch be even in relation to something more of the Lord Himself, and you will find an uprising of jealous regard for the institution which utterly blinds to that possibility of an extra measure of the Lord Himself...if you are spiritually sensitive, that you are not just encountering the established institutions, but you are encountering a terrific spiritual force."I personally encounter this demonic power on a regular basis but it is one that has and does attack us as a couple in quite serious ways.
