Dave and Ben discuss 'loss' during the pandemic, of life and jobs, friendships and more.
We're back after a week off from recording! Ben and Dave discussed fear this week. Is it ever good, and what how should we deal with in when feel gripped by it?
Today, Dave and Ben talk about hope and trust, why we should have a certain faith in God and his kingdom, and how different groups, most notably African-Americans, have had that 'Blessed Assurance' as part of their theology.
Taking inspiration from the Bible, via Bob Dylan, Dave and Ben discuss who we serve and the wholeheartedness with which we do so.
Our discussion this week looks at the renewed lockdown in the UK, and we share our feelings about it while reflecting on how we might face the next few months, with a particular eye towards Romans 12 and Patience, Perseverance and Hope.
In the Christmas to New Year 'lull', Dave and Ben discuss new year's resolutions and how we can be full of good intentions but sometimes become frustrated with ourselves — and how we might be more fruitful in future.
Amidst lockdowns, restrictions, loneliness and despair, we've done something a bit different this week. In a more relaxed format, we talk about things that have helped us so far, as well as what the message of the birth of Jesus means for us.
Sorry there was no episode last week - we were really busy!
We're going to release these on Mondays now; this week it's just one episode, but in the New Year we'll go back to our three bite-sized mini-episodes.
This one is about a biblical perspective on work and jobs.

Following on from our last episode, 'The Future Normal', Dave and Ben wonder what 'The Kingdom Come' - the Kingdom of God, or the Kingdom of Heaven, might look like, and when we should (and shouldn't) expect to see it.
Ben and Dave discuss how we might look to build something better after COVID-19, and what lessons we can learn from the new normal in order to create a more useful 'future normal' — because it's not as if everything was great before Coronavirus, is it?
Passages from Luke 4, Matthew 25 and Isaiah 61 are our biblical guides through the discussion.
Dave and Ben discuss what a Christian response to the government might look like during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond, especially in light of the recent US election.
Romans 13 and Paul's first letter to the Corinthians are among our guiding passages as we try to Navigate Life and Seek Wisdom.
Dave and Ben Roberts are navigating life and seeking wisdom. This week, it's an introduction and a look at what a Christian response to COVID-19 could look like.
