Show Notes

Snap up one of the few remaining balcony seats still available for our first ever official Irreverend conference!
In this episode Church of England vicars Thomas Pelham and Jamie Franklin get together to offer a spiritual perspective on current events, this week taking our Scriptural reflection from Philippians 2:5-11: Christ making himself nothing through the cross in order to serve God. In current events we touch on the latest brutal Shanghai lockdown, Boris Johnson's recent GB News interview in which he said (among other outlandish things) that he would lockdown again, transgenderism as a religious sensibility, Russophobia and more!
