Luke 12:13-34 All of us want to live well: to get to the end of our life and to know we didn’t waste it. Jesus tells a famous story about someone who seems to win at life, and yet when God appraises his life at the end, it turns out he had utterly failed in the only thing that really counts. Join us as we listen to Jesus’ teaching on How not to waste your life.
Ezekiel 1:1–28 Ezekiel has a vision of the glory of the Lord. As exiles we need to see that God is the glorious ruler over all, it is a comfort, but there is also a coming judgment.
Philippians 3:1-11 One of the key accusations of the New Atheists is that religion isn’t simply irrational, but that it’s dangerous and that it leads inevitably to intolerance and violence. Then, of course, the pro-religion voices try to protest by demonstrating the strong correlations between religion and many desirable outcomes such as stable mental health, and happiness, and altruism.

Jeremiah 25:3-16 In 2011 Pastor Rob Bell released a New York Times best-seller called “Love Wins”. In his book he calls into question the traditional Christian teaching about the existence of hell, and one of the objections he brings is that it’s unjust for people “to suffer in eternal agony because they didn’t believe in the Jesus they never heard of.” Listen in as we consider this highly emotive and crucial topic.
Exodus 11:1-13:16 Captain Phillips is an edge-of-your-seat drama about the rescue of a container ship from Somali pirates. There’s nothing quite like a good rescue drama, but it can feel very remote from our daily lives. The difference with the rescue drama in Exodus is that it’s actually all about us.
Exodus 7:1-10:29 Domino’s Pizza have an online service called ‘Make a pizza legend’. You create your own pizza just as you want it and then even give it a name of your choosing. It’s not like that with God. We don’t decide what he is like. He reveals that to us.
