Are Christians in Scotland being persecuted because their church buildings are closed? Were the protesters at the US Capitol this week taking the Lord's name in vain? Can you send our pod-pastor a picture of your dog please?

Our favourite Scottish minister, Amie Aitken, is back!

Covid-19 restrictions leading to church building closures in Scotland have prompted some Christians to consider a legal challenge to lockdown rules. But is that a good witness and is it being true to our covenantal duty to love our neighbour? Amie Aitken talks to Beer Christianity about Church witness and community in a time of plague, as well as discussing the recent riots at the US Capitol building by white Christian nationalists. Who, let's face it, are the worst.

We don't really want to preach at you, but some people like to know what we believe. It's this: Jesus Christ is the Son of God and came to teach us a better way to be while reconciling us to God and each other in a way we could never do without Him. He also changed water into wine. Nice.
