Andy reads a prayer he wrote in 2023 that concludes with a request for us to learn companionship with people considered beneath contempt, to learn with and from people who are different and make us uncomfortable. As may be a familiar feeling now, there was a lot of war happening in the world at the time, and the prayer starts with lots of asking for peace and reconciliation.

Andy, Leah and Jörg talk to Bethany, whose personal encounters in Palestine and Israel led to academic study, giving her a rare depth of insight which she brings to her introduction to the history of the devastating conflict in this region. The group tries to engage with how to respond as people who are collectively implicated in the mistakes of the past and largely powerless as individuals in the present.

This is part 2 of the conversation.

Apologies for the background noise of traffic and aeroplanes.

Andy reads a reflection on prayer sent in by a listener who also happens to be called Andy! He leads us to see prayer in some of our day-to-day activities, and maybe even to believe again that we can engage with the divine.

Andy, Leah and Jörg discuss AI: its utility, ethical problems and potential to change how we see ourselves and God. By building machines that reflect the totality of human knowledge and dress themselves up as truth machines, are we building idols? Does all this text cheapen our communication? Are we becoming yet more isolated? How should we respond?
