Om Podcasten

We’ve got an overwhelming, unrelenting stream of ideas being thrown at us on a daily basis - many of which contradict long standing theological traditions that are the bedrock of our faith. Every week we’ll examine those ideas, hold them up against scripture, and attempt to better understand how we’re supposed to think about life, faith and culture in this wild world we’re living in.
