  • Episode 92 - How Should Christians Engage With Other Religions?
    2025/05/16
    Today’s culture celebrates tolerance of other faiths, but for Christians, engaging neighbours of different religions while opposing what they believe can be tough. How do we do this robustly, truthfully, and lovingly? Aaron and Andy dive into this complex issue, share personal stories—including Aaron’s recent visit to Iraq—and discuss how Christians can build meaningful bridges to those of other beliefs as a pathway to Christ. Much depends, of course, on why such bridges are built—and how much we expect them to carry. Enjoy Pod of the Gaps?

  • Episode 91 - Can the government tell you how to educate your children?
    2025/03/20
    As the UK government continues to float the "Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill" through parliament, it could have a significant impact on the freedom of Christians to homeschool their children in future. While some aspects of the bill will seem like common sense, others raise red flags over government intrusiveness into families, signalling the thin end of the wedge towards effective state control over home education. In this episode Andy and Aaron discuss numerous questions surrounding this. What right does the government have to speak into the education of your children? What is statism, and why is it especially dangerous in a secular climate? Why is bureaucracy a particular danger in education legislation? What strategies can Christians employ to challenge state incursions with both winsomeness and integrity? ** ENJOY POD OF THE GAPS?

  • Episode 90 - The AI Revolution: Utopia or Dystopia?
    2025/02/27
    The advances in AI have skyrocketed, with more and more people beginning to make use of it in everyday life. In time, AI will have a monumental effect on society at virtually every level. As such, questions about the ethics and theology of artificial intelligence. are no longer speculative, but are right here on our doorstep. How should Christians respond? What positives are there in AI? Where can it help relieve unnecessary burdens? Where are the increasing dangers too? As AI gets smarter, do we get dumber? How do think theologically about AI? How does sin factor into AI? If we create AI in the image of sinful humans, are we unleashing something capable of ever greater destruction? Could AI become "self-aware" at some point? If so, how would we categorise it? Is AI capable of "good" or "bad" moral actions? Questions truly do abound! We address many of them, and more, in this jam-packed episode of Pod of the Gaps! **** RESOURCES MENTIONED **** AI Tools: * ChatGPT (from OpenAI): https://claude.ai * Claude (from Anthropic): https://claude.ai * Perplexity: https://www.perplexity.ai * Matthew Berman, 'OpenAI's New o1 Is LYING ON PURPOSE?!
