What do Christians believe about the immortality of the soul and the justification for punishment? Has hell been lost as a doctrine in the modern church?
In their second inter-Christian encounter James White and Roger and Faith Forster explain their different view of hell. James White holds to an “eternal conscious torment” view - that those in hell are punished for all eternity. Roger and Faith Forster believe in “conditional immortality” - that only those in Christ are granted eternal life and those who go to hell cease to exist.

Are we trapped in an endless culture war? Have Christians become more focused on politics than the person of Jesus? Are terms like cancel culture and postmodernism helping us understand the world, or just fuelling division?
