In 2002, after a sabbatical in America recording Where Angels Fear to Tread, Redman moved to Hassocks in Brighton to work with Terry Virgo at the Newfrontiers church, CCK. He has been involved in their Newday and Together on Mission conferences. In 2004 Redman joined a new church plant, The Point, also in West Sussex, led by Will Kemp.
