Episode 35 - Pride in the name of love

In this episode we discuss Pride ideology, gender identity and their promotion in schools. From a brief history of the Pride movement and its flags, to how transgenderism has its roots in Gnosticism, we ask how we should approach these issues as Christians and the challenges we may face. As ever, God's Word has the last word!

Episode 34 - Are you OK? Summer is here...

In this week's episode we have a look at some interesting things that have come to light in recent news, including weather warnings, lockdowns don't work (no surprise there), WHO Global Digital Health Certificates, 'BBC Verify' and Universal Basic Income trials. We also have a think about 'Pride month' and its increasing grip on society. We finish with a bit of reflection on Psalm 40:1-5 with a reminder to look to God and all his wonders.

Episode 33 - Affirm my pronouns

In this episode we discuss the case of a teacher banned from the profession for 'misgendering' a pupil, and the extent of the gender ideology, sexually explicit material and 'woke morality' being 'taught' in schools and the harm to children it is causing. We also revisit the issue of 'excess deaths' which continue to be a significant reality here and across many western countries, yet barely mentioned by the mainstream media. Finally, we highlight our recent interview with Nick Franks and read a very relevant piece from his challenging new book 'The Glorious Few'.

Episode 31 - Truth & love

In this episode we revisit the case of 'dissident' MP Andrew Bridgen who continues to ask legitimate questions around the safety of mRNA vaccines. We also look at a few issues which came out of our interview with Rev Jamie Franklin (Episode 30), including the new Church of England report on family life 'Love Matters' and the GAFCON statement from their recent summit in Kigali. In all these issues truth and love go hand in hand.
