Back in November 2020, we released this episode as "I'm Not Your Buddy Guy", which is a South Park reference Cary doesn't get, so he changed it to The Rest is Guy Fawkes, for obvious reasons. If you want to go to Cary's Almanac, you'll find that HERE.

Ever heard an audible voice from God? Or fetl that God was clearly instructing you to do something? Does that make you a "Charismatic" Christian? What's the difference between a Cessationist and a Continuationist? Back in October 2022, Coops and Cary chatted this one through.

Back in September 2021, Coops and Cares got together to talk about the uncomfortable idea of rewards in heaven. Christians don't tend to dwell on this. Not today. Why? And what is the truth of the matter? Let's look at Luke 19.

Back in 2019, before everything got really weird, Coops and Cares recorded this episode about endings. The presenting issue was the Game of Thrones season finale, but it's not really about that. How do you end something? I guess we've been thinking a bit about that around here... Hope you enjoy.

Cary has words with Dr Ted Turnau, academic, author and fanboy. What does it mean to be a fan, dress up and go to conventions? Is it a form of religion or a rival faith?

Cary has words with Christopher. That would be the utterly delightful Christopher Ash, who has just written a massive four-volume work on the Psalms for Crossway that shows us Christ in the Psalms. You can find it here: https://www.crossway.org/books/the-psalms-hcj-5/

Cary has words with Ellie Wiener, a young ancient linguist whose bluff was called and she found herself researching a PhD on the Book of Job. Cary wonders if the beginning is so tragic it teeters over into comedy. And when God speaks to Job, is He sarcastic? Ellie has some thoughts.

Cary has words with Dr Graham Shearer about politics following his talk entitled: “Contemporary Politics and the Crisis of the Spiritual Sense”. Turns out politics is not downstream from culture, as Cary had often assumed. Who knew? Well, Dr Graham knew. He's a Lecturer in Theology at Union Theological College, Belfast, so I guess he would, right?

Cary and (Rev Ash) Carter have words about the life and times of an extraordinary man: Richard Baxter. He lived from 1615 until 1691, and went from preaching to Parliament on a day of repentance for executing the King - to being imprisoned for being a theological troublemaker. What can we learn from his life, ministry and truly voluminous writings, including The Reformed Pastor. There's an updated and abridged version from Crossway here.

Cary has words with friend of the show, Randy Newman, author of Questioning Evangelism, Mere Evangelism and a new book about spiritual journey called, Questioning Faith. This is a conversation about how God uses us despite our terrible attempts at evangelism, and how non-believers are often stopped in their tracks by unexpected things. And it turns out there's one book by CS Lewis that neither Cary or Newman can understand or get into. Find out what it is in this episode.

James and Barry have extended words about Unidentified Autonomous (or Anomalous, or Aerial) Phenomena - UAPs to their friends. Strange things are being seen in the skies, even by highly trained and highly sceptical USAF fighter pilots, there is video evidence which has been made publicly available, and these things are being discussed at the highest levels of government. What's going on? Why have governments previously wanted to keep quiet about it? And how should Christians think about these things? Is it a threat to historic, biblical Christianity - or confirmation of it?
