Episode #188
The modern world was supposed to leave magic behind. But a new generation is searching for enchantment in paganism, folklore, and the supernatural. What’s driving this spiritual interest? Is it a doorway to darker...
Episode #10
What in the world do we do about slavery in the Bible? We shouldn’t rush to William Wilberforce and the Christian abolitionists so quickly that we gloss over an uncomfortable fact: Christians really did use the Bible to...
Episode #9
What do we do when we discover our so-called ‘Christian heroes’ did abhorrent things? What’s the difference between the soul and the spirit? Where does the idea of being a ‘missionary’ come from? Is the God of the Old...
Episode #8
We have a troubled relationship with disability. Even the term ‘disability’ is contested. Perhaps disability is something to inspire us. Or something that calls for our compassion. Or simply something to accept and let...
Episode #7
Christianity has a bit to say about ‘forgiveness’, both on a theological and a sociological level. In short, God forgives us, and Christians are therefore called to extend this forgiveness to those who’ve wronged them...
Episode #4
Almost everyone can remember the exact moment they gave up on mathematics. But for those who persist, many don’t just find maths useful; they find it beautiful. Some even go so far as to claim that mathematics is the...
Episode #3
It’s high time for an episode on the fabulous Hildegard of Bingen. This remarkable 12th-century nun’s work covered a vast amount of ground: she wrote about ecclesiastical history, science, medicine, botany, mineralogy...
Episode #2
The West might be becoming less ‘religious’, but according to many it’s becoming a lot more ’spiritual’. In fact, “spiritual but not religious” is described as a “rapidly growing faith group” in America, with as many as...

Africa is home to over 1.5 billion people and some of the fastest-growing economies in the world, but it still faces vast challenges. Thousands of missionaries have moved to Africa and made it their life’s work to help...

War is a horror – so how has Christianity, in its classical tradition, approached the human reality of war? Can it ever be justified on spiritual grounds? We looked at these questions in episode 55, ‘Just War’, back in...
Episode #10
Wes Huff has made the historical case for Christianity to an audience of millions on some of the biggest podcasts in the world, including the Joe Rogan Experience and Diary of a CEO. It’s fair to say he’s having a bit...
Episode #9
Is it ok for a Christian to enjoy secular music? Why did Jesus have to get baptised? And how does the church’s teaching on money compare to what the Bible actually teaches about it? It’s Q&A time again at Undeceptions...
Episode #8
The Oxford English Dictionary describes the Bible as a “library,” not a single work. But this library has been the most sold book in the world for millennia! So should we call this ultimate best-seller “literature”...
Episode #7
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights reads: “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of...
Episode #6
It’s hard to get a clear picture of the historical Jesus without projecting cultural tropes onto Him. Jesus - perhaps more than anyone in history - is often co-opted to fit either personal or political agendas. So this...
Episode #5
There’s a certain collection of Greek and Roman writings - from roughly 800 BC to AD 200 - which, apart from the Bible, has shaped the Western world more than any other intellectual tradition. Today, we call them the...

The First Hymn is coming to the big screens on both sides of the Atlantic! Find tickets here.
Episode #4
The cultural hangovers of Christianity are well attested. Recently, people who were once describing themselves as ‘New Atheists’ have gone as far as to call themselves ‘Cultural Christians’, due to the prevalence of...
Episode #3
Since Charles Darwin’s 1859 book On the Origin of Species, evolution has been considered by many to be the final nail in the coffin of religion. Because evolution is supposedly random - or indeed, blind - the argument...
Episode #2
A popular myth is that when the Roman Emperor Constantine converted to Christianity, he forced everyone else to embrace the faith - or else face deadly consequences. But this couldn’t be further from the truth. It was...
