Mid-faith Crisis 370: The challenge of change

Mid-faith Crisis 369: Talking about transcendence
How do we talk about mystical or transcendent experiences without appearing to be nuts? More than that, what is the motivation for talking about them in the first place? We discuss the problems with loaded words, the desire to call people into deeper experiences and whether we are refugees from culture. Also, why it’s best not to respond to the question ‘How are you?’ with a PowerPoint.

Mid-faith Crisis 368: ‘What if they were a bit saved already?'
We think more about the personalisation of the good news. What is the evidence for fullness of life in our lives? Are we the best judges of our own spiritual development? Does salvation look different for different people? Also, Joe has been birdwatching and Nick has had enough joy, thank you very much.

Mid-faith Crisis 361: Cherish your twiddly buttons
As we enter Lent, how can we make space in our lives to hear from God? In this episode we talk about the role of the wilderness in our lives and how it can actually be a place of encounter and change, a place where you hear the voice.
