This week on the podcast, Al, Greg and Scott talk discuss why Christians tend to be so quick to embrace conspiracy theories, where that comes from and how we respond to it.

As the COVID-19 crisis continues, the lads explore the variety of ways in which people seek to be part of a church online.

And what does it mean for our understandings of worship, forgiveness and sacrament?

With everything that's happening in the world at the moment, Al, Greg and Scott decided to discuss the coronavirus, how the outbreak has made us feel and what it looks like for Christians to respond well to it.

Some of the information is already out of date but we felt that some of the ideas we discussed were still worth putting out into the world!]

Following the release of 'Jesus is King', Christians and churches all over the world started tripping over each other to associate themselves with Kanye West.

Where does Christianity's weird relationship with celebrity come from?

This week, Al, Greg and Scott talk about the complex idea of 'hearing from God'. Is it a booming voice from the sky? A whisper in your heart? A sense of being drawn or aware of something?
