Book Review: The Strange Death of Europe

It's odd really, I found the book to shake me to my very core and open up my eyes to situations and a variety of perspectives of the world that I have never recognised are there before. Being a white English male in their early 30's and being raised in a predominantly white area for … Continue reading Book Review: The Strange Death of Europe →

Convinced about God…

I've been listening to a lot of podcasts recently. Trying to work through the backlogs of both 'Unbelievable?' and 'The Thinking Atheist' especially. I love these two podcasts, as they draw in a variety of guests, ideas and discussions. I also enjoy having one Christian podcast and one Atheist podcast - feels like a fairer … Continue reading Convinced about God… →

Not a Big Deal

Keep in mind that you are reading this post ten months after it was written. It's been an odd few weeks. The blog, to me, has only been live for a month and I feel as though it really hasn't been as big a deal as I had built it up to be in my … Continue reading Not a Big Deal →

They’re Just Words

Words are powerful. It's often said that you don't change someone’s mind in the middle of a debate, but afterwards, upon reflection, our ideas and what we believe can shift. Speaking to people is often more useful than writing them a text or an email, but a handwritten letter can often transform the everyday words … Continue reading They’re Just Words →

Book Review: Letter To A Christian Nation

I have read this book a couple of times now, usually in January as it is a healthy reminder of why it is so important to defend belief based on evidence rather than faith, and why we should be challenging the religiously moderate around us. I have already reviewed two other books by Sam Harris … Continue reading Book Review: Letter To A Christian Nation →

Doubting the doubt…

Things have been fairly tough for me recently. I mean, I am writing this on my 31st birthday, at the end of my tether with my children and feeling down about the fact that I have to go to work tomorrow to a job that I am really not enjoying right now. I know these … Continue reading Doubting the doubt… →

We have a Patreon

This week’s post is super short. I just want to let you know that we have opened a Patreon page for people who want to support the blog and podcast. It's fair to say that running all of this isn't free, but regardless of whether people do or do not give via Patreon, we will … Continue reading We have a Patreon →

Book Review: Outgrowing Religion

I had the pleasure to meet Dr John Compere on Skype when he interviewed me to join The Clergy Project (TCP) a couple of months ago. We got talking and, as you would expect, we had a ton of similarities. Both dedicating our lives to serving God in ministry and both coming to the realisation … Continue reading Book Review: Outgrowing Religion →

No Basis

It happens all the time. I tell someone that I don't think there is enough evidence to prove the existence of God, and they claim that I have no basis for morality, love, purpose or hope. Pick any positive emotive emphases and it is taken away from you by a Christian because they can't understand … Continue reading No Basis →

Anyone can know

When I first started writing this blog, it was just my wife and me who knew that I had seen my faith begin to unravel. The panic, fear and depression were vast, and I really didn't think I could ever find the nerve to tell those I call friends, and those I call family. A … Continue reading Anyone can know →
