  • #122 That Would Be An Ecumenical Matter

    Cooper and Cary have words about the ecumenical movement, how and why we just can't get it together this side of glory and maybe that's okay. How did Billy Graham, John Stott and Martin Lloyd Jones manage these issues. Cooper talks about Evangelicalism Divided by Iain H Murray and Cary has another swipe at Pilgrim's Progress.

    James gives Bunyan's magnum opus a good kicking in The Gospel According A Sitcom Writer.

    There's a whole EXTRA SIX MINUTES, plus actual talking faces at the Cooper and Cary Youtube Channel. Watch it HERE.

  • #121 C&C REUNITED

    For the first time in FOREV-AHHHH - well, 5 years - Cooper and Cary sit in the same room together. In this live Q+A, they discuss what on earth is going through their minds when they podcast, the benefits (and drawbacks) of working from notes, and whose idea it was to have stupid jingles in an extremely SERIOUS theological podcast.

    Recorded for the very brilliant Foundry internship program at Speak Life UK. The Foundry trains people to create world-reaching media. Go here for more information.

  • #120 A-Hunting We Will Go?

    Brits and Americans tend to feel very differently about guns and hunting - and animals. Is our our culture just too squeamish? So Cooper and Cary have words with Coops' pastor Larry, who hunts but isn't into guns. (And yet he owns 12 of them.)

    In the episode, Larry referred to the Pace Brothers Films on YouTube.

  • #119 The Mother of All Sins?

    Cooper & Cary have words about another deadly sin: pride. Along the way, they talk about how pride has embarrassed them personally, and Cooper explains his email habits and why he agreed to Cary's hare-brained plan to start a podcast together - to beat pride.

    The word of the episode is "protean". That's "protean".

  • #118 Why Build A Cathedral?

    Cooper & Cary have words with Steve Jeffery about postmillennialism, and why it matters. How did a Christian British man come to be so optimistic about the future of the world? Also, some differences between US and UK churches, why the wise men followed the star, the dating of the New Testament and how we don’t appreciate the significance of the Temple. The Word of the Podcast is: Preterism.

  • #116 Mere Evangelism

    Cooper and Cary have words with Randy Newman. Yeah, that Randy Newman that we spoke to in Episode 63, author of one of Cary's fave books, Questioning Evangelism. And now author of a new book about Evangelism and CS Lewis. As usual, Randy is great fun. And his book, Mere Evangelism, is here.

  • #115 Bullies & Saints

    Barry and James have words with author / historian / definitely NOT apologist John Dickson (@johnpauldickson), whose new book is all about the very checkered history of the Church. Does religion poison everything, as Christopher Hitchens maintained? What are we to make of the Crusades, for example?

  • #113 You Don't Look A Day Over 4.5 Billion

    Barry and James have words with the excellent Rhys Laverty about creationism: young earth, old earth, and points in between. What are the non-negotiables where it comes to interpreting Genesis? Is it important to believe that the days described in Genesis chapter 1 are literal 24 hour days? Does it matter whether or not Adam was a literal person? And what does "ineffable" even mean?
