181. Mike Pilavachi - When an influential leader fails what do we do?
This is a very difficult and live issue but one to look at from a discipleship perspective.
If you are someone who has been hurt by a church leader, please please please speak to the appropriate people. If they don’t listen, tell more people. Bring any abuse into the light.
For others of us how do we response when someone we have admired fails and is removed from ministry? Do we let our own faith flounder or do we need to so something else? In this longer than usual episode we try to explore what to do and how to respond well.

179. Jesus Says Have You Got Good Eyes (Matt 6:19)
As we have seen in other episodes sometimes what Jesus says can be heard differently when we know a little more about the culture of Jesus' day. In this episode we explore our relationship with money but also what Jesus meant when he said we needed good eyes.

177. Jesus' manifesto for life in the kingdom (Matt 6:5)
As Jesus continues to walk us through his upside down kingdom we get to the Lords prayer which is often seen as a religious prayer to mumble. The truth is the lords prayer is a battle cry, its Jesus' manifesto for life in the kingdom. The Lords Prayer.

174. Jesus Says Love Your Enemies (Matt 5:43)
As Jesus continues to walk us through his upside down kingdom we get these verses on loving your enemies. Its such a difficult passage to live out in practise. But what we realise is as we love our enemies we are giving them back their humanity and in doing so we are also gaining our own.

173. Jesus says do not be a doormat there is a new way to expose injustice (Matt 5:38)
As we walk through the radical Sermon on the Mount, we get to ‘An Eye For An Eye’, which has often been a misunderstood passage. Here we will look at the background and what it means for us to be people who look for alternative ways of using humour to expose injustice.
