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 167 - If Jesus Reigns Now, Our Politics Must Change
Politics is noisy because we keep asking the wrong first question. We’re trained to start with “who should rule?” and then hunt for the best human mechanism, while the Bible starts somewhere else entirely: the throne in heaven, already occupied...
Episode 166 - Stop Treating Elections Like A Sacrament
Elections can make Christians feel like the fate of righteousness hangs on a cross in a ballot box. We push back on that pressure and name the confusion underneath it: mistaking a kingdom that comes down from heaven for a kingdom that gets vote...
Episode 165 - Democracy Rewards Campaign Skills More Than Wisdom
Voting is meant to be a sober act of shared sovereignty, but what if the choice on the ballot is mostly a choice between rival salesmen? We take a hard look at the modern democratic process and ask the question many citizens are never encourage...
Episode 164 - If Democracy Means Peace Why So Much Killing
Democracy gets praised as the political engine of peace, rights, and human flourishing. So we ask a blunt question that rarely gets aired: if that’s true, why does the most democratic century in human history also look like the most violent? We...
