Dr Who downloads to reach unchurched

Christian radio outreach ministry Whistling Frog Productions has released its latest batch of free audio downloads for churches, schools and radio stations on the theme of Dr Who.

Whistling Frog Productions, part of the Bradford-based HCJB Global, produces radio resources and clips to reach those outside of the church who listen to mainstream radio stations.

The short series of thoughts has been launched as the current series of Dr Who draws to a close.

In the series, the Doctor offers some light-hearted reflections on life as a Time Lord, and how they relate to the life of faith.

The Doctor also looks at how prayer might be used to help tackle human problems and how the tough task of being the last of the Time Lords compares to the Son of God's mission to earth.

"What does the Tardis have to tell us about faith?" the series asks.

The audio thoughts can be downloaded as MP3 files free of charge from Audiopot, an online library of creative Christian audio from across the UK.
