We planned this episode before Justin Welby announced his resignation and recorded it shortly after the news broke. It was set to be our most timely and relevant episode yet! But then Adam fell ill and couldn’t edit it in time. So, if you can, cast your mind back to last week, and this will all feel strikingly prescient—dare we say, prophetic even!

Ben and Adam reflect on a year of faith leaders' moral failure in response to Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people as well as a much better response from liberation theologian, Sarojini Nadar. They also talk about Saint of the Week, St. John Chrysostom. That's right, an actual official saint for Saint of the Week! And what's up with sports journalists covering for athletes who have committed horrific crimes? Ben helps us think through some ongoing cases in Mingrapes.

How is democracy used ideologically? Is it even the best way to structure society? Are there alternatives? Jonny and Adam try to get to the bottom of it and along the way run into dogs painted to look like pandas, the resurrection of a long-lost biblical tree, and the first (and possibly only!) TORY Saint of the Week!

Ben and Adam take a look at the influence of right-wing hedge fund manager and media mogul, Paul Marshall's quiet reshaping the Church of England through financial influence. They also spotlight Gresham Kirkby, the Anglican priest who proclaimed his undying support for anarchism to the end, making him our Saint of the Week.

The Surviving Church blog has some really interesting pieces on HTB, power and safeguarding. This series, by Hatty Calbus, was particularly helpful.

As an established church, the Church of England occupies a unique position in the constitutional life of England and the UK as a whole. But in the face of growing authoritarianism, how can it act prophetically? Is it time to give up its privileged status? Join Jonny and Adam as they discuss Adam's article Where is the Church's Prophetic Voice? and explore the tensions between the Church's influence and its ability to challenge the status quo. Can the Church of England find a way to embody its calling, or is it time for a radical shift?

Adam's article can be found here.
