In this first episode of the new year, we look at a number of issues in the news including the King’s Christmas message, the London fireworks, plans to abolish trial by jury in ‘swift courts’, the new chickenpox vaccine and the rise of Islam. We begin and end the episode with a call to live by ‘faith over fear’, with biblical realism and the hope of Christ and his return. We finish with reading the ‘song of Simeon’ from Luke 2:29-32.

In this episode we focus on the assassination of the gifted Christian apologist Charlie Kirk. We consider the significance of Charlie's murder, reactions to it, and the spiritual battle we face. We also discuss the 'Unite the Kingdom' rally in London and the Christian response to these events.

In this special episode we speak with Phill Sacre about the state of the church in our country. We discuss how much of the church behaved during the covid era, what the essentials of true church should be and the need for 'separation' from the world but also from those in the church who will not take the Bible seriously and put Jesus first. We finish with encouragement to be prepared to stand together for Christ.

In this episode we discuss having political prisoners in the UK, theologian NT Wright’s controversial views on abortion, the Church of England’s anti-bullying guidance for schools, and the rise of antisemitism. We look into the issues of weather modification and geo-engineering following the recent announcement of plans to fund research into ‘dimming the sun’ in the UK. We consider why these matters are important from a Christian perspective as we seek truth and look to the return of Christ. We finish with reading from Psalm 2.

In this episode we address the danger posed by the islamification of Britain through immigration, islamic culture, buildings and festivals. We discuss the ideology of multiculturalism and how it is incompatible with Christianity and our western culture. We look at some recent cases of ‘two-tier’ justice and the increasing threats to freedom of speech in Britain. We finish with reading from 2 Corinthians 10:5 which shows us why we have to be able to criticise false religions and ideologies.

In this special episode, released on the government’s ‘Covid 19 Day of Reflection’, we interview Christine Padgham about her journey through the covid era. We discuss how she woke up to the truth of what was happening and the truth of the gospel. We hope this interview will give an accurate reflection of the harms caused to so many through the covid interventions, fear and propaganda, and will be an encouragement to those looking for hope and truth which can be found in Christ.
