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.

Church of England revs with a difference Tom Pelham and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the biggest stories in Church and state. This time:
- Michael Gove's new definition of extremism.
- Should we be wishing Muslims "Ramadan Mubarak"?
- Why are our parishes bleeding volunteers?
- The Archbishop of Canterbury's "Difference" course.
- One listener's experience of Mothering Sunday.
And much much more as ever!
