Episode 333: The return of Father, Son and Floaty Thing
Back after our break, we celebrate an episode with all the threes by totally solving the issue of the Trinity. I mean, we absolutely nailed it. Completely sorted. It's not like Batman, but it might be like a canal. Anyway, you're welcome.

Episode 332: Bill
In this Nick reflects on saying goodbye to his beloved dog, Bill, so we talk about joy, prayer, vulnerability, grief and love. Please be warned – along with the usual nonsense, this has some very un-English, tearful moments. But that's love for you.

Episode 331: A lovely guy but so messed up
This week we tackle some feedback, talk about elders and gatekeepers and Joe has an update on his theme. Also, we think about why theology is such a loaded word, how the creed ignores most of Jesus' life and how the manager of Tottenham Hotspur reminds us of something important about the Kingdom of God. Oh, and Nick has some very helpful medication.

Episode 330: Growing old disgracefully
In an episode recorded actually together in the same room, we talk about getting older. What is the invitation of this part of life? How does it affect our faith? We talk about being an elder, becoming an 'adult of God', and what our new roles might be as we age disgracefully.

Episode 329: ‘A certain against energy’
In an unexpected move - well, unexpected for Joe, at least – we revisit an episode from 2017. Eight years ago we had a stab at writing our own creeds and now, having completely forgotten even doing it, we go back to see what we wrote and whether we still agree with it. Also we have important clarifications about cauliflowers, and we worry whether both the podcast and our lives are now travelling in reverse.

Epistula Apostolorum
A podcast for every Christian who has ever asked ‘Is that it?’
Mid-faith Crisis explores the Christian faith with honesty and humour. If you feel that you have more questions than answers, if you feel as though your faith is changing, if you feel that if the worship leader sings that chorus one more time you will strangle him with his own guitar strap, then this is the podcast for you. Warning. Contains traces of theology and occasional innuendo.
