The Christ Centred Cosmic Civilisation
Christ is the One in Whom in all things consist and humanity is not the measure of all things. If a defining characteristic of the modern world is disorder then the most fundamental act of resistance is to discover and live according to the deep, divine order of the heavens and the earth.
In this podcast we want to look at the big model of the universe that the Bible and Christian history provides.
It is a mind and heart expanding vision of reality.
It is not confined to the limits of our bodily senses - but tries to embrace levels fo reality that are not normally accessible or tangible to our exiled life on earth.
We live on this side of the cosmic curtain - and therefore the highest and greatest dimensions of reality are hidden to us… yet these dimensions exist and are the most fundamental framework for the whole of the heavens and the earth.
Throughout this series we want to pick away at all the threads of reality to see how they all join together - how they all find common meaning and reason in the great divine logic - the One who is the Logos, the LORD Jesus Christ - the greatest that both heaven and earth has to offer.
Colossians 1:15-23

Episode 176 - How A Bishop Held A Christian Ruler To Account
A Roman emperor orders a massacre, then turns up at church expecting to take Communion as usual. Instead, a bishop stands in the doorway and says no. That single moment between Ambrose of Milan and Emperor Theodosius forces a question that stil...
Episode 175 - Why Eusebius Thought A Christian Emperor Made Sense
A cross in the sky, a battle won, persecution ended and suddenly the Roman Empire has a Christian on the throne. That single turn of history still triggers strong reactions: some call it deliverance, others call it corruption. We slow the momen...
Episode 174 - Stop Shouting At Servants And Talk To The King
A single line in Romans 13 can dismantle a lifetime of political instinct: “the authorities that exist have been established by God.” We sit with that sentence without softening it, and we do it with the most confronting historical reality Paul...

I've really enjoyed you Narnia series. I love the books and re read them last summer. Did you skip the Magician's nephew? Sorry couldn't find it in the episodes but I've probably missed it! Which one was it?
