Welcome to this week's episode of Politics in the Pulpit. Nathan Maguire introduces Matt Forsyth, future Vice President of the Methodist Conference, who takes over hosting duties. Matt is joined by Steve Hucklesby, a policy advisor for the Joint Public Issues Team (JPIT).
Matt and Steve delve into their roles, emphasising the intersection of politics and faith. They explore the importance of unity in diversity, reflecting on this week's lectionary readings from Esther, James, and Mark. The discussion highlights themes of justice, prayer, and the role of Christians in advocating for global peace and nuclear disarmament.
The episode also touches on current news, including climate change, political developments, and heartwarming stories, connecting these to the scriptural themes. The conversation encourages churches to engage in prayer, advocacy, and practical action, particularly in the context of the climate crisis and local community needs.
Join us as we reflect on how to faithfully navigate the intersection of faith and politics in our preaching and daily lives.
