11: Vicki Simpson on Hearing the Voice of God and Leading Through Global Change
In 2018, Vicki Simpson had a prophetic picture of a rubik’s cube in the hands of Jesus, representing a sudden global change in the church and the world. Little did she know the events that were coming swiftly to us all in 2020 and beyond. We talk about the emergence of the hyper-local church context, what God is up to globally in the church, hearing the voice of God and the emergence of a new group of people disenfranchised with the institution of the church.

Citi - Create Tomorrow
Create Tomorrow was an internal campaign ran by Citi to foster innovation over five weeks with their 20,000 employees. The programme included speakers such as Malcolm Gladwell, Rory Sutherland & Rana El Kaliouby I created some preliminary designs to help define style and mood for internal social posts and advertisement.
TribeShake Social Content
If we’re going to spend 90,000 hours of our lives at work, shouldn’t it be a little more fun? TribeShake is an innovative experience platform for teams, all about making work better for everyone and to help startups create work tribes. Work tribes are teams that don’t just do more, they become more – more connected, more creative, more calm & more fun!
I worked with TribeShake to create a range of social content including video teasers, helpful PDF downloads, Instagram posts, memes and more.
NESCAFÉ Redvolution
NESCAFÉ’s REDvolution was about every single NESCAFÉ product sharing the same visual identity and coming under the slogan: ‘It all starts with a NESCAFÉ’. Below are some posts used on their Facebook & Twitter channels in which I was responsible for idea creation and copywriting.

9: Matt Rosenberg on the Jewishness of Jesus & Why It Matters
Did Jesus really say anything new? Most Christians would agree with the idea that Jesus came as some sort of radical revolutionary to overthrow religion and law and bring in a new era of grace and freedom.
But how can that really be the case when Jesus himself was not only a Jew but as Messiah is the ultimate fulfillment of what it means to be Jewish. Why would God spend so much time and energy fulfilling a covenant with the Jewish people if it is obsolete today?
I sat down with Rabbi Matt Rosenberg (Messianic Rabbi and author of Jesus Never Said Anything New) for an eye-opening conversation to learn more about the Jewishness of Jesus and the importance of understanding the context in which the scriptures were written. I think you’ll find it helpful and insightful.
(My apologies for my audio quality in this episode as I accidentally recorded with the wrong mic. Luckily you’ll still get to hear all of the crystal clear wisdom from Rabbi Matt Rosenberg ;-))
