This episode explores what Jesus meant by “my Father’s house,” the biblical meaning of heavenly rewards, and how Christians should approach complex questions about euthanasia, human dignity, and the hope of new creation.
What is reality, and does it have meaning? In this special event, William Lane Craig, Jessica Frazier, Philip Goff, and Joe Folley debate whether God, morality, and consciousness are at the heart of the universe - or if meaning is something we create. Big questions, deep ideas, and lively disagreement.
This episode tackles why Britain seems increasingly ungovernable, with another prime minister resigning and deep divides between generations. We explore the structural issues plaguing UK politics, the moral challenge of climate change, and how the church could offer a better model for justice between young and old, rich and poor.
How important are facts and reason? Is science alone enough? What role does imagination play in apologetics? How do we maintain a strong faith when engaging with sceptics? Alister McGrath shares his insight into Lewis’ thinking on important questions in our final episode on Lewis and apologetics.
Does my life have any meaning? If God exists, why has he allowed my suffering? How can a good God allow hell? Alister McGrath explores whether Lewis can speak into any contemporary theological, ethical and cultural questions or concerns.
What is apologetics? Why does it matter? Can Christianity speak into the dominant narratives of our culture? Ruth Jackson is joined by Alister McGrath to reflect on what we can learn from Lewis’ unique approach to apologetics.
