  • Raising Lazarus
    May 20 2024

    Hey! This is the final episode. I'm not keeping it the rest back for cynical reasons. Quite the reverse. This podcast isn't working. People aren't listening. No idea why. As I'm recording it, I'm actually thinking it's quite good and occasionally impressed with what my former self has written. But anyway, turns out people don't want short single-voice audio podcasts. Live and learn. So here's the last episode. It's about one of Jesus's greatest miracles, the raising of Lazarus.

    Some straight talking - okay, a bit of a rant - to screenwriters on how they could better represent Christians on TV. But don't we all feel better now?

  • Christians According to Sitcom Writers
    May 6 2024

    If you see a Christian portrayed on TV, you probably won't be happy if you're a Christian. There are actually good reasons for that, which I explore in the first half of this chapter entitled Christians According to Sitcom Writers.

    One of my favourite cameos in scripture is Rhoda. Allow me to explain why.

    You'll never look at this part of the Bible the same way again. Sorry about that. But I thought you might enjoy it. Don't forget to share the podcast. I'm not sure for how long it's going to be here and remain free!

    Still not a huge fan of Bunyan, although I admire him as a fellow brother and believer immensely! Honest! Anyway, hope you enjoy this. Don't worry. The joke's on me eventually. If you want to find out how, get the book:

    Since this episode drops the day after Easter Sunday, we're going to deviate from the book and jump ahead a few chapters - and go to a live version of this bizarre bit of John's Gospel. And you can find it over on my YouTube Channel.
