Jeremy Moses and Andrew Haslam discuss how to live out a countercultural faith in a secular age. The Christian faith was always meant to be different. Jesus called his followers to a radical distinction from the prevailing trends in culture. In this podcast, the aim is to get down to the nitty gritty of just how different the Christian life is meant to be, and how to live Christ's way.

The City
Very often Christians can have a negative view of the city, or just see the city as a stepping stone to a future life elsewhere. In this episode, Jeremy and Andrew explore something of a theology of the city – a biblical vision for the city that includes God's heart of compassion, as well as the wonderful display of God's image in humans living there. What does the Bible have to say about cities? How can that radically alter our posture as we live in the city? And how can we flourish as we live in the city?
-
Entertainment
As Christians who live in an entertainment-saturated world, we often engage with entertainment in an uncritical way that feels disconnected from our Christian faith. We see it as something neutral and enjoyable, but basically irrelevant to following Jesus. In this episode Jeremy and Andrew explore why entertainment is so popular, some of the benefits and dangers of our engagement with entertainment, and how to enjoy entertainment to the glory of God.
-
Dating
In this (extra long but extra interesting) episode, Jeremy and Andrew explore the rapidly changing world of dating. We have seen a revolution in the way people understand love and go about finding a partner. What are the main changes that have happened in society at large? And how have these changes affected us as Christians? The challenges of finding a marriage partner need to be acknowledged, but Jeremy and Andrew also get into some advice on big issues like who to marry, how to go about dating, and what a relationship should look like.
-
Calling
Many of us are wrestling with the question of calling: What is my vocation in life, and how do I discover it? This is not a uniquely Christian concern; many secular Westerners are just as passionate about this issue of calling. But a Christian approach is nevertheless unique. In this episode, Jeremy and Andrew explore questions like, How do I find my call? When should I change my job? How should I approach these issues as a Christian?
-
Friendship
As loneliness increases year on year so does the sense that true friendship is often missing for many people. What does the Christian faith have to say about friendship? What has gone wrong inside and outside the church in the way people experience friendship? And what vision for friendship should we pursue?
-
The Body
We often give very little thought to our bodies, yet our relationship with them is complex. Some of us hate our bodies, and others of us are obsessed with them. Either way, we cannot avoid them, and we need to learn to think as Christians about them. In this episode, Jeremy and Andrew explore some of the cultural shifts in how we treat the body, and then seek to articulate a Christian perspective on the body.

Love this series. Unfortunately divorce exist in Christian communities and divorced Christians report a variety of disturbing behaviours from fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Would love to hear your views on divorce and how our communities can support divorcees
Love love love this!
Love the blend of theology, philosophy & modern culture - cleverly delivered in an engaging, accessible & practical manner for the modern, Western Christian!
A must listen :)
Half an hour of wisdom and challenge, all within the context of a friendly conversation between friends. I already feel shaped and convicted by listening to these episodes. So much depth and truth spoken in a really warm, honest and accessible way.
