4.8 out of 5 stars from 367 ratings
  • Outstanding for all those of faith

    Although this is podcast perhaps intended for those of the evangelical faith, it has obvious much wider application - to those of any faith who wrestle with what they believe. My wife and I have been listening for years, and it is profoundly moving us. Just the right balance of depth and dry English wit and banter. God must be smiling down on these two men for the work they. Please don’t stop…

  • Where honesty, humour and helpful insights meet.

    Saturdays are about football and this podcast. Not necessarily in that order. Grateful for the range of topics explored in a refreshing and authentic way. Nick and Joe don’t agree on everything but their mutual affection and appreciation for each other enhances the chemistry and dynamic of this excellent podcaster.
