The Presbyterian and The Priest‘s Podcast

In this episode we sit down and chat forgiveness and reconciliation with Rev. Mervyn Gibson. While some might only know Mervyn through his role with the Orange Order, we wanted to hear his story, and gain his perspective on what forgiveness and reconciliation might look like for Northern Ireland. And what a time of year to hear from him - although this episode was recorded near Christmas time, we kept it until now!

It has taken a long time to upload our next episode in which we joined Rev. John Dunlop to talk about 'Bonding & Bridging'. As we explore what forgiveness looks like in the midst of reconciliation, this concept is hugely important. As always if you have any questions please get in touch via [email protected] even if it's only to ask where we've been!

In this latest episode we welcome back Ken Newell, a familiar voice to all those connected with the Fitzroy/Clonard partnership, and an important voice over the years to forgiveness and reconciliation in Northern Ireland. Amongst other questions we ask Ken his thoughts on what part these might play in the future of Northern Ireland.

In this episode of Series 8 we welcome David Smyth of the Evangelical Alliance to our conversation on forgiveness and reconciliation. More can be found out about the Evangelical Alliance (And David) at https://www.eauk.org/author/david-smyth and as always, if you have something you'd like to ask us, or a direction you'd like to point us in, please get in touch at [email protected]

As we begin series 8 we are thinking about forgiveness and reconciliation. Ciaran and I, after a bit of a catchup, will give our own perspectives and thoughts before looking forward to who and what we hope to engage on throughout the series

We start off Series 8 with our Christmas Message, reviewing the year and finding how it links in to this series focusing on forgiveness and reconciliation. We wish you a Merry Christmas

In this episode we remember the life of Pope Francis, reflect on the funeral and hear about what is involved in the upcoming conclave. Ciaran as always does a great job of guiding us through it all, but if you have more questions or want to know more please get in touch via [email protected]

In our last episode of series 7, as we always do, we reflect over the series and think about what impacted us most and what we learnt from it. This series was about answering your questions and although it has now finished, we always enjoy getting your questions so please continue to send them in

It has been a long time! Longer than I would have wished! Those words ring true in a few ways today, in that we haven't had an episode up since Christmas, and also because those words will be familiar in what we're talking about in this episode - Confession! So listen along, and enjoy!

In this episode we reflect back over 2024 and share a Christmas message with you; with every Blessing - Grace & Peace
