Episode 28 - Cockup or conspiracy

In this episode we consider the term ‘conspiracy theory’ and ask whether the events of the last three years around covid have been due to ‘cockup’ or ‘conspiracy’. We look at what the Bible has to say to us on the nature of evil and how that relates to the world we live in today where global organisations, networks and ideologies are a reality.

Episode 27 - Revival or survival

In this episode we look at the issue of ‘revival’ and repentance. We also discuss the recent decision in the Church of England to introduce the ‘blessing’ of same-sex relationships, and the suspension of a lecturer at a theological college for expressing orthodox Christian views on homosexuality. We end with a look at some of the pandemic truths reaching the mainstream media, and a reminder to contend for the faith entrusted to us.

Episode 26 - Abortion: Is the Gospel big enough?

In this special episode we speak to Dave Brennan from Brephos, a project committed to helping churches respond to abortion. This is a sensitive but important subject, and we look at the realities of abortion, the Biblical theology of the unborn, why the church needs to talk about abortion, and the ethics around the use of cell lines from aborted babies (including in the development of the COVID vaccines). We end with a reminder of the hope which the gospel of Christ offers, a gospel which is big enough to speak into the pain of abortion, and the reality of God’s grace.

Episode 23 - A year in review...

In this episode we have a look back over the significant events and hot topics of 2022. We also mention a few heroes of the year who have made a stand for truth, called those in power to account, been willing to pay the price for speaking out and have taken the narrow and difficult path. As we look forward to 2023 we draw wisdom from Ephesians 6 which tells us how to stand firm in our faith, and we wish you all a Happy New Year!
Note: We said war in Ukraine started Thu 20 Feb, we meant Thu 24 Feb.

Episode 22 - Not safe, not effective and not necessary

In this episode we consider the recent speech made in the House of Commons by Andrew Bridgen MP, calling for a halt to the covid vaccine roll-out due to the mounting evidence of harms caused by adverse reactions. He said the mRNA vaccines are not safe, not effective and not necessary. Is this true, and if so why is it not being reported in the mainstream media and what should our response as Christians be?
