    35 - Money money money

    Is money the source of all evil? Can you be Rich and a Christian? What about tithing if you work for a Church? These are just some of the things discussed in today’s episode… Sometimes we have money and don’t know what to do with it. Other times (perhaps more often 😅) we don’t have money and wished we did! Regardless, what’s most important is our attitude towards it. What does the Bible say on money? Have a listen to find out. Also some fresh post office dummy moments for your weekly entertainment. 💰Money. 💸 Money. 💵 Money.

    34 - Blessed but Depressed

    Depression is something a lot of people go through—but hardly anyone talks about it. In this episode, Izzie sits down with pastor Dan, and has a real, honest conversation about depression, mental health, faith and wow what a conversation it is… We talk about why it’s not a sign of weak faith, and how believing in God doesn’t magically make hard feelings disappear. Instead of giving “quick fixes,” this episode focuses on understanding, compassion, and hope—both for yourself and for the people around you. Sometimes faith doesn’t mean feeling better right away. Sometimes it just means taking the next small step—and that’s okay. Wherever you are with your mental health, this conversation is for you, but it could also help for a friend. 🧠 Mental health. 😁 I am well pleased. 🤝 Community. Also Dan recommended some things to read off the back of hs episode… Hope they help! - Gentle and Lowly (or The Heart of Jesus) by Dane Ortlund - Reasons to stay alive - Matt Haig - I had a black dog - Psalm 13 - Psalm 88

    33 - Screen time

    “Get in loser, we’re going to Church…” In this episode of Faith for Dummies, we’re talking about screen time—how much is too much, why it’s so hard to log off, and what our scrolling habits are doing to our faith (whether we realise it or not). From endless TikToks to late-night Netflix binges, screens aren’t just killing time—they’re shaping how we think, what we value, and who we listen to. So where does God fit into all of that? And is “just delete the apps” actually the answer? No guilt. No shaming. Just honest conversation, (hopefully?) practical wisdom, and a reminder that faith was never meant to compete with a screen—it’s meant to shape the way we use it. Hit play if you’ve ever said “five more minutes” and meant thirty. 😅 📱Screen time. ✝️Faith in real life. 🎂 Faith for Dummies (aka us) Birthday.

    31 - Listening for God

    The dummies are back(!) and hopefully it’s worth the wait (have a listen to hear why!). Kicking straight off with listening for God and how on earth you actually do that in real life — not just the “sit in silence for 3 hours on a mountain” kind of way 😅 Join Izzie and Rob as they chat about the different ways Christians believe God speaks and the pressure to “hear something big” or even hear anything. Own experiences are shared (wait for Sam’s sandwich, and moving to Bedford story) and just generally reminding each other that listening to God often looks a lot more normal than we expect. No perfect answers — just two dummies talking things through together. And of course… a few classic dummy moments along the way! 👂 Listening. 👄 God speaks. 4️⃣ Season 4 is here.
