Listen to Carey lecturers preach

Carey's latest podcast show opens a window into the Carey world: "Each week as a college, we gather in our chapel to hear great biblical preaching from our faculty and guests. This year, our preaching theme is ‘Mentored for Ministry’. We’re working our way through the pastoral letters of Timothy and Titus, exploring how an experienced leader affirms, guides and challenges younger colleagues into faithfulness and effectiveness in their ministry contexts. We hope you find this as stimulating as our students do!"
