Ravers in the Nave

vendredi 8 décembre 2023 • Durée 01:33:51

Church of England revs with a difference Daniel French and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the most interesting issues in church and state. This time:
- Church of England's Christmas campaign 'Follow the Star' falls flat due to basic typos and theological errors. But what tone could the CofE strike to truly reach the culture?
- Climate Change protestors bravely storm the quire of Chichester Cathedral and interrupt Radio 3 evensong. Is this genuine prophecy or self-important pomposity?
- COP 28 kicks off with 400,000 delegates creating the biggest carbon footprint since the Industrial Revolution began and King Charles making some strange comments about the "indigenous worldview".
- Canterbury Cathedral hosting rave in the nave with obscene lyrics by Eminem is untenable says Gavin Ashenden. His solution? Give the cathedrals back to the Roman Catholic Church!
- And Douglas Murray is indirectly threatened with weird prediction of Islamic gangsters coming to get him.
That and much much more as ever!
