256. Pride or Purpose: examining the issue of Christian Nationalism. In this week's episode, we explore “Pride or Purpose?”. Looking at the problem of Christian nationalism and tracing its roots, we ask whether discipleship calls us to defend nations or to expand the Kingdom of God. We contrast the unrest we have seen in recent weeks with what we see in the Kingdom of God. Finally, we offer practical steps for Kingdom-first discipleship, praying for enemies, practising hospitality, and speaking gospel truth over politics - closing with the call to “Seek first the Kingdom of God.” Support the podcast with a coffee.... https://www.buymeacoffee.com/crisrogers To get a copy of The Bible Book By Book head here... https://www.eden.co.uk/christian-books/bible-study/bible-study-reference-books/bible-background/the-bible-book-by-book/ Rev Dr Cris Rogers is a church leader at allhallowsbow.org.uk and Director of Making Disciples.

255. How to live our lives with Uprightness? What does that even mean? The Christian virtues can often sound like something from the Victorian era, but are actually the most modern things you can practice. It’s living straight in a crooked world. It’s walking in such a way that when people look at your life, they see a reflection of God’s goodness and truth. In this episode, we explore what uprightness is and how we live it.

254. Is This True, “The World Just Needs To Know God’s Love”? This week's episode challenges the popular Christian narrative that "the world just needs to know they are loved," arguing instead that Jesus' primary message wasn't love but the Kingdom of God, with 120 references to the kingdom with only 20 to love across the gospels. The episode explores how prioritising God's love over His kingdom can lead to treating Jesus as a spiritual guide rather than King. Ultimately, arguing that transformation comes through surrender to His rule rather than sentiment about His affection.

247. How do we know if something is actually a Christian idea or not? In today's episode, we explore five dangerous beliefs that sound biblical but misrepresent God's truth, including the misconceptions that God just wants us to be happy, that enough faith guarantees healing, and that we can declare our own reality into existence. We'll examine what Scripture actually teaches about these topics and learn how to test every spiritual-sounding phrase against God's Word to avoid being led astray by well-meaning but unbiblical ideas.

246. What is the spirit of the age and what is the antidote? At the HTB Leadership Conf 25 Nicky Gumbel said "Let’s not embrace the spirit of the age, rather lets embrace the spirit of Jesus". In this episode, we explore how the "spirit of the age", driven by hyper-individualism, instant gratification, and moral relativism, directly challenges biblical discipleship in our daily lives. We'll explore practical ways to resist these cultural currents by embracing Jesus' spirit of community, patient growth, and surrendered service, rather than conforming to the world's pressure for performance and self-focus.

238. Is The Burial Cloth Of Jesus Still With Us? The Shroud Of Turin. Did you know there is a famous contender for the actual burial cloth of Jesus Christ? The Shroud of Turin is a linen cloth bearing the image of a crucified man. For centuries, it has been at the center of one of Christianity's most enduring mysteries. This ancient artifact has generated intense debate among scientists, historians, and religious scholars. While many have dismissed it as a medieval forgery, recent scientific evidence has begun to challenge this conclusion, gradually shifting the balance of scholarly opinion. The cloth displays remarkable characteristics that continue to defy simple explanation, including a negative image that predates photography and anatomical details consistent with Roman crucifixion practices. As new techniques emerge, researchers continue to uncover intriguing properties that keep the Shroud's authenticity an open question. Whether authentic relic or ingenious creation, the Shroud of Turin remains one of history's most fascinating and thoroughly studied religious artifacts. https://www.shroud.com/ The Book referenced - Shroud Encounter: Explore the World's Greatest Unsolved Mystery by Russ Brault Support the podcast with a coffee.... https://www.buymeacoffee.com/crisrogers To get a copy of The Bible Book By Book head here... https://www.eden.co.uk/christian-books/bible-study/bible-study-reference-books/bible-background/the-bible-book-by-book/ Rev Dr Cris Rogers is a church leader at allhallowsbow.org.uk and Director of Making Disciples.
