Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Dr David I. Smith on a theology of education, power and hospitality
Q: How has your experience been integrating theology and pedagogy in education?
There seems to be a lack of genuine integration between theology and pedagogy; much of the conversation remains at the level of reiterating ideals without addressing actual classroom experiences.
Dr David I. Smith on a theology of education, power and hospitality
Q: What theological ideas have you found yourself gravitating towards as essential?
Hospitality has been a significant theme for me, alongside the historical context of education through figures like Comenius, who rooted educational concepts in biblical imaginations and community.
Rev. Dr. Dan Anderson on political and cultural engagement
Q: What would you see as a real priority straight away in bringing some of those learnings to form young people?
Get better at teaching history and remain committed to global missions, recognizing God's ongoing work in the world.
Rev. Dr. Dan Anderson on political and cultural engagement
Q: What do you see as the biggest needs for Christians engaging in culture right now?
A strong sense of identity as Christians, building community relationships to remind us of who we are, and supporting each other through challenging times.
Jesus and the Powers with Michael Bird
Q: What do you think it means to be a prophetic witness in Australia right now?
Being a prophetic witness involves calling out injustices, maintaining a distinct Christian message, and embodying counter-cultural living.
