    They Told You Exactly How They're Doing It!

    The General Synod of the Church of England is about to debate a motion on same-sex relationships. But the most important thing about this debate isn’t the motion itself — it’s the papers behind it. GS 2455A, written by Professor Helen King of Oxford, openly names the 1975 precedent it’s modelled on — the same motion that began the forty-year process leading to women deacons, priests and then bishops. And GS 2455B, the Secretary General’s official response, describes in plain English the only two ways this can end if the motion passes. They didn’t hide it. They cited it. In this video I walk through both documents carefully, show you exactly what they say, and explain why a sentence that technically changes nothing could matter enormously. This is a public episode.

    Has King Charles Broken His Coronation Oath?!

    The internet exploded this week over a line in the Sovereign Grant Report claiming King Charles has redefined his role around a "multi-faith nation." Christians claimed the Coronation Oath had been broken. Almost none of it was true! This is a public episode.

    When a Church Chooses a Flag Over Women

    Sunderland Minster in the Diocese of Durham has put a transgender flag on its women's toilet door and offered to chaperone any woman who feels uncomfortable using them. In this video I look at what actually happened, whether the law was broken, and what it reveals about the Church of England right now. I also give one piece of plain pastoral advice for any discouraged believer trying to find a faithful church. This is a public episode.

    The Most Important Synod Vote in 40 Years Is Hiding in One Sentence!

    This July, the General Synod of the Church of England will debate a single sentence. Just one. And it could undo what the Church has taught about marriage and the body for two thousand years.It's a Private Member's Motion brought by Professor Helen King, affirming that same-sex relationships can be "entirely compatible with Christian discipleship." It doesn't change a single doctrine. It doesn't rewrite the marriage service. It asks something quieter than that — and that's exactly why it matters more than it looks. In this podcast, I want to give you three things: clarity on what's actually happening (and what isn't), the biblical ground to stand on while the Church debates, and a reason to be steady rather than shaken. Because this is the last Synod before the autumn elections — which means the vote in July is not the last word. The real question is whether the faithful will be as awake as everyone else.

    The Church Says It's Growing... Britain Says It's Collapsing!

    Two reports landed within days of each other. One said the Church of England is growing for the fifth year in a row. The other said church attendance in Britain is below pre-pandemic levels and the so-called "Quiet Revival" never really existed.Both are true. And if you can hold them together, you'll understand more about the actual state of British Christianity than most people writing about it for a living.In this podcast, I walk through what the numbers really say, what they don't say, and what Scripture tells us about being a faithful Christian in a country that is genuinely turning away — without overselling the recovery or panicking about the decline.

    Was Britain Ever Really Christian?

    We keep calling Britain a Christian nation but did that ever actually make us Christian?In this video, I look at the difference between a country shaped by Christianity and a people saved by Christ and why that distinction matters more now than it ever has.

    Are UFOs Demonic? What the Bible Actually Says!

    The US government is preparing to release classified files on unidentified craft and materials of alleged non-human origin — and before a single file has dropped, pastors are reportedly being warned to prepare their congregations.In this podcast, I want to cut through the noise and ask the question that actually matters: what does Scripture teach Christians to do when something arrives that looks like truth, carries the weight of authority, and is designed to pull people away from Jesus?We look at the biblical category of deception, what the tradition has always said about non-human intelligence, and why the method of manifestation has never changed the test.Not conspiracy. Not panic. Just biblical clarity for an unsettled moment. This is a public episode.

    The People Are Speaking. Is The Church Of England Listening?

    Something is happening across the Church of England — and it is not coming from the institution. Since this series began, something has been stirring. Not just on this channel. Not just through the work of Save the Parish. But in the comments sections, in PCC meetings, and now in the letters pages of the national press. Last week the Daily Telegraph published four letters about the state of the Church of England. Four people, from four different counties, writing independently, saying what three videos in this series have been building toward. And two of those letters come from people in my own deanery — two miles from this parish. In this video I read all four letters and respond to each one honestly. I also address the question that keeps coming up in the comments: if one vicar one church is the answer, where are the vicars going to come from? And I want to tell you something about what is happening here, in Chalfont St Giles, that I think matters for this conversation.The people are speaking. Is the Church of England listening?
