Episode 61 - Top Trump

In this post-election episode we review Donald Trump’s historic victory in the 2024 US election. We consider the policies he ran on, compared with those of Kamala Harris, and why the mainstream media has been struggling to come to terms with a Trump win and the fact that overwhelming numbers of American voters have backed him. We finish with a sobering reading from Psalm 2, and a reminder that the Lord is on the throne and earthly rulers should serve him with fear.

Episode 59 - The industrial indoctrination complex

In this episode we focus on two different issues, with a common thread relating to freedom and the efforts of those in authority to censor, suppress and control. We begin with a brief review of the recent ‘Rescue the Republic’ rally held in Washington DC, drawing together speakers from the ‘freedom movement’ including Jordan Peterson, Robert Kennedy Jr, Russell Brand and ‘dissident doctors’ Robert Malone & Pierre Kory. We go on to discuss the increasing number of organisations trying to indoctrinate children, primarily in schools and colleges, including through the government’s PREVENT strategy. We finish by reading Ephesians 6:12 as a reminder that we face dark and spiritual forces of evil in the world, but we read on to see that God will provide us with everything we need for the battle.

Episode 58 - Going against the flow with William Philip

In this special episode we talk with Rev Dr William Philip, minister of the Tron Church in Glasgow. We discuss the dangers of the ‘climate gospel’, the challenges of the covid era and the failings of many churches, the increasing unrest and disconnect in our nation as our society moves further away from God’s ways, and the challenge for Christians to be courageous and go against the crowd, which may be costly but is an essential part of being a disciple of Christ. We finish with hearing about William’s new book on the Psalms, ‘Heart Songs for Every Saint’.

Episode 49 - No farming, no food, no future

In this episode we consider the recent farmer protests across Europe, driven by desperation primarily over policies related to the ‘green agenda’ and the drive to ‘net-zero’, with a uniting protest theme of ‘No farmers, No food, No future.’ We look at the unrest in Wales over the proposed new ‘Sustainable Farming Scheme’, and get a glimpse of the green agenda ideology through the ‘C40 cities’ global network. We discuss the pushback including the ‘CO2 Coalition’ and the ’No to net-zero’ campaign. We finish with a call to consider these issues from a Christian perspective, with a focus on Genesis 1:24-28 and Psalm 104.

We look at the cost of taking a stand and speaking out for truth, and the dangers of staying silent. We finish with a mention of the ongoing situation in Israel and Gaza, and the COP 28 deliberations which included statements from the Archbishop of Canterbury and King Charles. Finally, a reminder from Psalm 24 that the earth is the Lord’s and everything in it!

Episode 43 - The freedom movement with Professor Norman Fenton

In this special episode we speak with Professor Norman Fenton, Emeritus Professor of Risk at Queen Mary University of London. Norman has been a beacon of critical thinking through the last few years, bringing clarity, reasoned analysis and compelling evidence to issues around covid and net zero, and at some considerable personal cost. We discuss his work highlighting issues around covid testing, vaccination and excess deaths. We then discuss his recent concerns about anti-semitism in the ‘Freedom Movement’, and his personal insights as a Jew with many family links to Israel. We conclude with the need for more understanding of the complexities of the history of Israel, including for Christians, and the importance of standing against anti-semitism.

Episode 36 - Thoughtcrime and other misdemeanours

In this episode we discuss a few topics which have been in the news. We look at people who have being ‘cancelled’ for expressing political or Christian views and for challenging prevailing ideologies. We talk about climate obsession in the Church and the on-going agenda in the media against meat-eating. We end with discussion on efforts to restrict or ban prayer which mean we are not only losing freedom of speech but even freedom of thought. Our closing scripture is 1 John 4:5-6 which reminds us how to know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of error.
