Clive and John discuss one of the most spectacular medieval buildings in Britain, Westminster Hall. Originally built by William the Conqueror’s heir, the voracious William Rufus, it was a structure of immense ambition — said to be the biggest hall of its kind north of the Alps.  In the 14th-century, this huge space was reimagined as a statement of royal majesty by art-loving Richard ll; carved angels looked down on the divinely appointed king from the hammer beam roof.  Ironically, this would be where Charles I was tried and condemned to death in 1649.  Attached to the Houses of Parliament, this ancient space remains a natural setting for great national events, such as addresses given to Parliament by visiting foreign dignitaries or HM Queen Elizabeth II’s lying in state in 2022.

Send us a textWhat happens when philosophical training clashes with biblical revelation? In this profound exploration of Augustine's theological development, we unpack his fascinating struggle with the Bible's vivid descriptions of God's appearance and the heavenly throne room.Augustine's journey begins with his immersion in Neoplatonic thought, which viewed ultimate reality as entirely non-physical, formless, and inherently unseeable. This philosophical framework created significant tension when he encountered passages from Daniel, Revelation, and Ezekiel describing God the Father seated on a throne with visible form and appearance.We trace how Augustine initially resolved this conflict by reinterpreting biblical language through abstract philosophical categories—much like Friedrich Schleiermacher would do centuries later with the Enlightenment worldview. For the young Augustine, "seeing God" didn't mean literally perceiving a divine form but achieving intellectual comprehension of divine truth.What makes Augustine's story particularly valuable is witnessing his evolution. As he matured in faith and engaged more deeply with Scripture, he began taking the Bible's physical descriptions more seriously. Though never fully abandoning his philosophical presuppositions, he developed a more nuanced position that acknowledged how God might adopt visible forms to facilitate human understanding.This episode highlights a pattern that continues today—the temptation to reframe biblical language to accommodate prevailing intellectual paradigms. Whether it's 18th-century rationalists explaining away miracles or contemporary theologians recasting the gospel in psychological terms, Christians continually face the challenge of letting Scripture speak on its own terms.The fundamental question we explore cuts to the heart of Christian theology: Is our separation from God due to an unbridgeable metaphysical gap between Creator and creature? Or is it, as Scripture suggests, primarily a consequence of sin that Christ's work overcomes? Your answer shapes not just abstract theology but your entire approach to spiritual life.How do you picture God when you pray? Join our conversation about embracing the beauty of biblical imagery and the joy of encountering the living God as He truly is.The theme music is "Wager with Angels" by Nathan Moore

Welcome back to Thoughts. In this episode, we talk about fear, how it effects us mentally, how it moves us to action, and what we can do to overcome it.

The Deamhan world is in chaos as the once feared and Ancient Lugat, Lucius, is freed from Limbo and embarks on a bloody killing spree to eradicate any remaining traitors in the city of Minneapolis. But Lucius is not alone in his quest for power. The Brotherhood has returned, and a growing population of vampires is stirring up the remaining Deamhan who have chosen to stay behind.As the body count rises, tensions escalate between Deamhan, humans and vampires, forcing them to choose sides. Will they allow Lucius to free the Pure Ones – the first living Deamhan from Limbo – or will they take him out and risk crippling their already-fragile presence in the city?But when a shocking twist is revealed, alliances are shattered, and the true intentions of each faction are exposed. As they learn the tropes of their world and face the consequences of their actions, Deamhan must decide whether to fight for their survival or succumb to the machinations of those who seek to control them.
