  • Sir John Rutter
    2024/07/15

    Sir John Rutter, one of the greatest living composers, joins me to speak about how he reached the pinnacle of choral music. Works of his, such as 'For the Beauty of the Earth' and 'The Lord bless you and keep', among many others, have touched the hearts of millions around the world. Further to this, he has become extremely important for Christmas music, composing and arranging many of the carols we sing today. This is a man who has remained dedicated to his craft for decades, and he will go down in history as one of the greats.

    Here is the accompanying article that I wrote in Palatinate: John Rutter CBE: On being ‘Mr. Christmas’ – Palatinate

  • Dr. Darrell Bock
    2024/01/13
    An interview with Darrell Bock, one of the most prominent New Testament scholars in the world, from Dallas Theological Seminary. Absolutely loved this conversation, especially as someone figuring out what I think about Christianity - hopefully it will also help listeners! At Dallas Theological Seminary, he is currently executive director of Cultural Engagement at The Hendricks Center, and Senior Research Professor of New Testament studies. He has also served as president of the Evangelical Theological Society, a consulting editor for Christianity Today, and on the board of Wheaton College.

    In-person interview with Jonathan Aitken, a remarkable man who went from Cabinet Minister to prisoner in one of the biggest political scandals in decades, before turning his life around and becoming a Christian in prison. He is now a prison chaplain at Pentonville among many other things. An incredibly humble and warm character who I had the pleasure of recording this episode with.

    Linked below are the two volumes that make up his autobiography:
