This week’s episode was recorded in May and is Part 2 of ‘Journeys & Regrets’!

From there, we talk about what it means to have a healthy relationship with regret and Alan begins a lifelong love affair with the word ‘baseline.’

Following the global movement of outrage, heartbreak and ‘Black Lives Matter’ protests after the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Alan, Greg and Scott talk about what they’re learning about systemic racism, justice and what it means to be allies to those who are victims of oppression. This episode is called ‘The First Of Many Conversations’ because we’re conscious that three white men talking about race is nobody’s ideal and that, though we want to speak up rather than be silent, we’re committed to using our (small) platform to amplify those whose voices the world needs right now. We hope this will be the first of many such conversations that will include people of colour and others from marginalised groups. As we mention in the show, you may find it more helpful to listen to our interview with author and activist Lisa Sharon Harper in Episode 167 which you can find here.

This week on the podcast, Al, Greg and Scott talk discuss why Christians tend to be so quick to embrace conspiracy theories, where that comes from and how we respond to it. Our thinking was particularly stirred by two great articles:

1. Love Rules the World, Not Conspiracy - Ken Tanner

2. Gullibility Is Not A Spiritual Gift - Ed Stetzer

As the COVID-19 crisis continues, the lads explore the variety of ways in which people seek to be part of a church online. Is it a crucial resource for those that are not served well by most churches? Or is it a cop out that removes the call to be part of an in-person community? And what does it mean for our understandings of worship, forgiveness and sacrament?
