CUI Podcast

In this special episode, Alison Williams is joined by Glen Scrivener, Director and evangelist at Speak Life.

Many people watched on in shock and horror as news concerning apologist Ravi Zacharias broke headlines in February.

Ravi was a pioneer in modern day apologetics, a gifted Bible teacher, and the esteemed figurehead of a well-respected global ministry that has helped thousands in their Christian faith over the last decade. Not surprisingly, then, when the news came out about the scandalous goings on in his life behind closed doors, believers were left feeling hurt and disappointed at how such a seemingly mighty man of God could fall so hard.

Ravi is not the first, and will unfortunately not be the last to have this story.

Glen and Alison discuss how we as students, leaders and the wider church can rise up in disappointment, seize the opportunity to grab hold of truth and put our ultimate hope on the perfect author of faith.

CUI Chair Jim Crookes is joined by world renowned author and social critic Os Guinness, for a special episode on The CUI Podcast on the Christian and politics.

The world watched in shock at the events that unfolded on January 6th outside the Capitol building in Washington DC. Protesters held signs that said “Jesus Saves” as they rampaged through one of the greatest symbols of democracy in the world.

In both Ireland and the US, evangelicals are confused and dismayed by the astonishing speed with which their culture has rejected its Judeo–Christian roots. Some are tempted to fight politically in defence of a Christian Nation; at the same time, tens of thousands of young adults from evangelicals are moving into agnosticism or liberal post–evangelical communities.

How far should Christians get involved in politics? How should we engage effectively with a post–Christian world in a way that honours the Lord Jesus Christ?

It's a loaded question, isn't it?

The negative effects of social media is a hot topic a present. How can we as followers of Jesus make best use of the digital world? Should we be in it at all?

A few months ago, Netflix released a documentary called 'The Social Dilemma'.  The film explores the rise of social media and the damage it has caused to society, focusing on its exploitation of its users for financial gain through surveillance capitalism and data mining, how its design is meant to nurture an addiction, its use in politics, its effect on mental health.

We got together with evangelist Matt Lewis from South Africa to hear his thoughts on how we can glorify God in an eco-system that preys on the weaknesses and vulnerabilities of mankind.
