To celebrate reaching the 100 episode milestone, something a little bit different. I talk about my journey over the last few years, and think about where we’ve ended up. Is there anyone we can trust? And what does that mean for how we relate to the church in particular?

In this podcast we focus on the Russell Brand affair over the last few days. The whole thing has made me realise just how deeply sick we are as a culture: the way the accusations were made, the hypocrisy of the media, the social media reaction, and the contrast with Christian sexual ethics.

It doesn’t take a genius to work out that there are huge problems with money at the moment. Inflation, interest rates, money printing – all leads back to problems for the ordinary person. Where do the problems come from, what is driving it, and what can we do?
We also look at an article by Louise Perry about the repaganisation of the West, and an article by David McGrogan about “Law 3.0” – how the law is being used to control. All the other articles are linked below.

We seem to be living in days which are abounding in accusation. Miscarriages of justice seem to be common, as well as things like cancellation. It’s even more important to ensure that we have a fair legal and judicial system. How can accusations be managed fairly? And how does that relate to the Christian faith?
We also look at the why it’s important not to deify the NHS; a documentary about how London has changed – especially through migration; Mike Yeadon’s journey to faith; and how the decline of Christianity has led to real problems in the country.

Are people less emotional than they used to be? Do people feel things less deeply? In this podcast we look at how the world has changed, and why that should be the case.
We look at the difference between the world today and that of Jane Austen’s day, as well as comparing teenagers today with those 20 years ago. We think about some of the factors contributing to the change, including social media and technology. We also look at why emotions are important. We finish by looking at what the Bible has to say about the importance of emotion and what causes the lack of it.

How should we understand Artificial Intelligence? Is it a good or a bad thing? Should we be worried about it? Can it replace human beings? How should Christians think about it – and what can we do? In this podcast we look into all these questions!
Also – we look at some news, including the way that we are being manipulated about the climate “emergency”, how this country is no longer welcoming to Christians, and Nigel Farage’s cancellation by Coutts. And a recommendation for Sophie Spital’s interview on Triggernometry about transgender and autism issues.
