Today we're talking with Chris Date about Hell and the biblical interpretations that lead us to the three main views of God's judgement.

Chris Date is Adjunct Professor of Bible and Theology at Trinity College of the Bible and Theological Seminary and co-editor of Rethinking Hell: Readings in Evangelical Conditionalism (Cascade, 2014) and A Consuming Passion (Pickwick, 2015). A full-time software engineer, Chris believes theology and apologetics are for every average joe in the pews, and not just for pastors, philosophers, PhD’s and the erudite in ivory towers. Formerly holding to the well known view of hell as a place of ongoing torment, he became convinced of conditionalism, the view that eternal life is conditional on salvation through Jesus and the eternal punishment is death post resurrection and judgement. This change happened over the course of a process which began when he interviewed Edward Fudge, and he has since defended the view in several debates and on Justin Brierley's Unbelievable? radio program on Premier Christian Radio UK. Chris is also a steward of the Rethinking Hell project.

We're talking with Mike D'Virgilio, author of the book 'The Persuasive Christian Parent: God's Provision for Building an Enduring Faith in You and Your Children'. As can be assumed by the title, we'll be discussing how Mike encourages parents to share their faith, possibly dismissing a few myths about Christian parenting, and probably hitting a few other topics along the way.

You can find out more about Mike, his blog and his book at his website: www.persuasivechristianparent.com

Today we're talking to Nathan about understanding the history of science and religion, more specifically Christianity. Feel free to ask questions as we chat!

Nathan Bossoh is currently a PhD student at UCL focusing on the history of science and religion through the life of a British polymath called the 8th Duke of Argyll. Before stepping into the world of academia Nathan had a background in music where he worked as a bass player for a number of years performing with various bands and artists in and outside of UK. In 2017 he took on and completed an MSc degree in Philosophy, Science and Religion with Edinburgh University online. Now as he is coming towards the final year of his PhD, Nathan has plans to pursue post-doctoral research on the history of race, medicine and religion in the British-West African Context. He also has a secondary project in place that will focus on the history of modern science in the British-Japanese context.
