We talk cynics, sceptics and assorted doubters. What is it that pushes us towards cynicism? How can we remain open to the possibilities of prayer? Does anyone still play the prophetic bongos? And most importantly, what's happening with Nick's apricots?

Episode 335: A senior pair likely in their golden years
People have sent in limericks about the Trinity. Joe is wondering what to do about the climate crisis. Nick is very grumpy about AI, a mood not improved by the AI-generated description of their photo on Facebook. We talk about the need to be people who care, who live lives of both gratitude and action. So join our long-term partnership, as we prioritise our relationship and spend quality time together.

Episode 334: An interview with climate activist Rev Tim Hewes
Tim Hewes is the author of Finding Beauty Behind Bars - A Climate Activist’s Enforced Retreat, a book he wrote after being arrested during Extinction Rebellion protests. He tells us about how he became so concerned, why he got involved with non-violent protest and the remarkable story of the day that eight Met policemen were sent to arrest a highly dangerous clergyman.

Episode 332: Bill
In this Nick reflects on saying goodbye to his beloved dog, Bill, so we talk about joy, prayer, vulnerability, grief and love. Please be warned – along with the usual nonsense, this has some very un-English, tearful moments. But that's love for you.

A podcast for every Christian who has ever asked ‘Is that it?’
Mid-faith Crisis explores the Christian faith with honesty and humour. If you feel that you have more questions than answers, if you feel as though your faith is changing, if you feel that if the worship leader sings that chorus one more time you will strangle him with his own guitar strap, then this is the podcast for you. Warning. Contains traces of theology and occasional innuendo.
