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.

Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs
Irreverend LIVE! Starmer Resigns in DISGRACE | Andy Burnham Next PM? Bishops EXPOSED in Lords + Hymns & Q&A
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Rev. Jamie, Tom, and Daniel are back with a special live episode of Irreverent Faith and Current Affairs recorded in Winchester.
They deliver a sharp, no-holds-barred Christian take on Keir Starmer’s dramatic resignation, the rise of “cultural Catholic” Andy Burnham as the next potential Labour leader, and why the Church of England’s bishops in the House of Lords are failing as a Christian voice.
Jamie opens with a timely biblical reflection from Philippians 3 on heavenly citizenship amid earthly chaos, followed by a hard-hitting discussion on two-tier policing, immigration, assisted dying, Tommy Robinson, Bishop Kai Dewar, and 10 years since Brexit.
Plus: plenty of banter, audience Q&A, organ sing-alongs, and a powerful Hymn of the Week.
Raw faith meeting current affairs at its best.
