May 26, 2024Ep 67: We Aren’t So SimilarChris and Pete talk about storytelling, how we all do it differently, and how weird we all are. So how can we talk about what matters? Can we communicate well when everyone else is so completely different? Is there more to our diversity? Does difference make a difference?...more20minPlay
May 19, 2024Ep 66: Leaving the flockChris and Pete ask ‘who’s minding the flock!’ Why is Chris breaking the sheep’s legs? Do sheep run off or do we just get distracted? How much should we follow the flock, or should we just be looking after ourselves?...more18minPlay
May 12, 2024Ep 65: It’s a Game isn’t it!Chris and Pete get into sport with the question “Do you love the diversity?” And why don’t churches love it? What if difference is essential to a good life? So what do we see about God’s plan when we play sport? Is it vital to have people on your team who don’t play the way you do? Can we join the isotonic sports faith?...more19minPlay
May 05, 2024Ep 64: So Right and So WrongJournalist and broadcaster Richard Aedy leads us into a simple question; What is the meaning of life? Is awareness why we exist, or is there more to it? Perhaps we have all missed a fundamental point about why we exist?...more16minPlay
April 28, 2024Ep 63: Rewriting The BibleChris and Pete talk about their fave version of the bible and ask what happens when we re-iterate and re-frame the bible and why is there so much complexity there? Can we remove it? Do we need to hear from more than just the bible?...more14minPlay
April 21, 2024Ep 62: Too Much InformationChris and Pete love a bit of science and science is replicable. The same experiment gets the same results, that sort of thing. But what about faith, the bible, and God? Is it the same for us all? Nope. Here they check out the work of Korean philosopher Byung-Chul Han who reckons knowing stuff makes it hard for us to work together in communities. Have we started to lose ourselves in facts?...more19minPlay
April 14, 2024Ep 61: Do I Bless God?There’s all these bits in the bible where people bless God, but what have I got that god needs? What is a blessing for God? Chris and Pete return to the love Dog and see if they can unpack this bizarre twist… how do the blessed ones bless the one who blesses us? Can we be the unknowing and irrelevant ones?...more13minPlay
April 07, 2024Ep 60: The God of Evil?Chris and Pete unfurl another of those curly questions. Did God create Evil? Are bad things hand crafted by the loving creator of the universe, was badness? Have we humans given evil a face, made it into a thing, or is it something else? Are Dark, Cold, and Evil merely absences and what does it matter to us?...more16minPlay
March 31, 2024Ep 59: Drinkin’ With JesusChris and Pete pull the cork on an event that has torn apart churches and communities for generations, when Jesus turned water into wine. What was he thinking?! They ask what it means to us today. Did Jesus get folks drunk? Is he okay with wine? Or are we just doing what we want and deliberately misrepresenting things?...more14minPlay
March 24, 2024Ep 58: Are You a Good Dog?Chris and Pete crack open the ancient poetry book and read from the 13th century a poem that suggests we should all be whining dogs. Is that a useful thing? How do we see ourselves? And what happens if we rethink that?...more15minPlay
