Mon, 13 Nov 2023 - 258 - Embracing a Dignified Future

Do you ever feel guilty despite knowing thatyou’ve been forgiven? Do mistakes loom large in your thinking and do your conversations often start with an apology?

Ever notice how Doubt gets a bad press in Christianity?

Mon, 22 Nov 2021 - 180 - Sex & Being Single
Throughout history the message of the church to single people about sex has been clear, just say no. But is it that easy when the need for intimacy is such a powerful driver? Is it enough to be told don’t do? Or does the human heart need a better reason? After all we live in a world where, even in church, celibacy is seen as a bit anachronistic, so how do we stay true to God’s call?
Kat Harris, author of Sexless in the City, joins Paul Hammond on Life Issues.
Mon, 15 Nov 2021 - 178 - Restoring A Broken Marriage
How do you restore a marriage? There are some regular suggestions as to how might approach that, talking things through, counselling, maybe even some time apart.

Maybe it’s not so strange.
