An Opportunity for Spiritual Renewal?
Release Date: 09/23/2022
Description: Church of England revs Thomas Pelham and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the most significant issues in the culture today. We take a brief foray into the strange world of Canadian education in which a man came to school dressed in enormous comedy breasts and was defended on the grounds of diversity and inclusion, after which we return home to merry England and discuss the spiritual and cultural significance of Elizabeth II's funeral. Is this an opportunity for spiritual renewal within our land or was it "a bit much", as Tom appears to think? In addition, we answer your questions in Question the Rev and that's all for this week's Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs!To support the show -Please see: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/irreverend and https://www.patreon.com/irreverend.
