A Taster Episode from my "History of The Christian Church Podcast".  2000 years of Christian thought told through the ideas of its greatest thinkers....
This is my latest episode: No 37. Episode,  Season 3 - The Medieval Church - Episode 9.

Welcome:
What happens when the church becomes too clever? What happens when faith is no longer something to be lived, but something to be analysed? That is the world we stepped into with Peter Abelard in our last episode.
 But not everyone welcomed that change, because, amid that rising tide of intellectual confidence, another voice began to speak. His name was Bernard of Clairvaux. And these two worldviews would collide. The world of the philosopher…. and the world of the monk.
 Their conflict would not just shape their own lives, but it would shape the direction of medieval theology itself. And this still matters because, at its core, this is not just a story about the twelfth century. It is a story about every generation of the church.
 So, join me in today’s episode…. As we step into the life, the passion, and the fierce convictions of Bernard of Clairvaux.
The man who stood against the rising tide of intellectualism and called the church back to what, well, maybe to the heart of the Christian faith.

This is a taster episode from my recent series on the history of Philosophy from my new 2026 podcast series. 'The Living In Faith Everyday Podcast'. (The L.I.F.E. Podcast). 

This is my Bi-Monthly podcast that seeks to respond to and engage with the world of Philosophy and current trends in the Arts and Entertainment from a Christian Perspective.

Season 1 - Part 11. Zeno, Empedocles, and Anaxagoras - Paradox, Powers, and the Mind Behind the Cosmos.

This is the episode in which the Presocratic world becomes even stranger by the entry of three remarkable figures—each brilliant in their own way, each eccentric, each offering a different way forward.

Zeno of Elea — The Master of Paradox
He is the first philosopher to make the world feel like a glitch in the matrix.
Empedocles — The Poet, Magician, and Scientist.
It is poetry disguised as physics, or is it physics disguised as poetry, but it was the first attempt to explain change without denying permanence.
Then Anaxagoras — The Philosopher Who Introduced the concept of the mind
Finally, we arrive at Anaxagoras, the thinker who brought something entirely new into the conversation:
Nous—The Mind. and that behind creation stands a Mind, a Logos, a Creator.... So step into the world of paradoxes, cosmic forces, and the first philosophical vision of a universe shaped by intelligence….

The Bible Project Daily Podcast is an in-depth, daily study of the entire Bible, chapter by chapter, verse by verse. 

Episode Notes: Choices Have Consequences. (2 Kings 23:31-25:30)
Choices have consequences. Good choices bring good consequences. Bad choices bring bad consequences, and the Bible is full of stories that illustrate both.
Some made wise choices, some made foolish choices, and the consequences were very different. The consequences are not always the same.
 We’ve been walking through the book of 2 Kings, the book in the Bible that traces the slow, tragic decline of the nation of Israel, and especially the southern kingdom of Judah.... And now we’ve reached the end.
 From the end of chapter 23 through chapters 24 and 25, we watch the final unravelling of the nation, king after king, bad choice after bad choice, and consequence after consequence. 
Today’s lengthy closing passage will show us something important:
 Individuals can make wrong choices, and so can nations….
And both experience consequences….
