Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs
Are you wondering how a Christian should respond to current events? What are we to think about a world that appears to be going absolutely mad? How are we to discern the signs of the times? In this podcast, featuring The Reverend Thomas Pelham, The Reverend Daniel French, The Reverend Doctor J.A. Franklin and the occasional guest, we attempt to give some answers. Email us at irreverendpod@gmail.com, follow us on Twitter @irreverendpod or on Telegram at https://t.me/irreverendpod.

Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs
Government and Media Gaslighting
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Revs with a difference Jamie Franklin and Daniel French get together to talk about the most important issues in church and state. This time:
- Thoughts on the upcoming budget.
- Trump on the Joe Rogan podcast.
- The Lambeth Palace clarification piece on Archbishop Justin's comments on gay sex.
- The now widely-known truth about the Southport killer and associated media and government gaslighting.
- Assisted killing update as the Senedd refuses to back Euthanasia.
- And a parish church is rebuked for not following the net zero ideology.
All that and much much more as ever.
