Summary
Phil Togwell is part of the 24/7 Prayer, an internatinal, interdenominational movement of prayer, mission and justice. Over the last few years Phil's been involved in setting up spaces in schools for children to honestly and naturally begin to connect with God. It's an inspiring story!
“I think so often in most of our church lives, everything is done for us. But as soon as we behave like a New Testament church – ‘a priesthood of all believers’ – where we all have access to God and discover that God wants to engage in our lives, it is transformative. It spills out of those upper rooms into everyday life.” - Phil Togwell
