Not a Bible study

October 10, 2026 · 48 min

The big announcement this week is the Mid-faith Crisis Church Weekend 2027. All the details in the link below. Meanwhile, in a possibly ill-advised move, we explore a Psalm together. We talk about sacramental moments, what fulness of life…
Make faith great again

October 3, 2026 · 44 min

We're back! Nick is back from Canada and Joe has forgotten to read the Bible. In our continuing tour of the house of faith, we revisit the attic but also consider the bar and even the playroom. Also, there are some very important…

The stuff in our spiritual attic

September 5, 2026 · 46 min

We're coming to the end of our season of spiritual decluttering, and taking a look at some of the things that we have hidden away in the attic. What practices have we stored away up there, hoping they might come in useful again some day?…
Communion - ritual and grace

August 29, 2026 · 40 min

In a slightly unexpected moment, we delve into the ritual of communion. Last week we talked about it as a key Christian activity, but what is our understanding of it? We discuss the importance of ritualism, but also the dangers of…
Decluttering church

August 22, 2026 · 40 min

We continue our journey unpacking the rooms of faith by looking at 'church' – a big word, with so many meanings. But what is it really? Is it just people talking about God? What about things like communion? We discuss the necessity of…
Jesus is my drinks package

August 15, 2026 · 41 min

More on the theme of worship, but this week we focus on the why. Why do we worship? What is the role of gratitude? Is God really that needy, or are there other gods who are a lot more needy than the Divine? Should worship songs be sea…
A Summer Repeat with Brian McLaren

August 8, 2026 · 40 min

So, Joe is still away, but here's a little something from the vaults – an interview with Brian McLaren about his book Life After Doom. Given all the extreme weather we're experiencing at the moment, this seemed like a good episode to…
Decluttering Worship

July 25, 2026 · 45 min

This week's episode brings us to worship. How do we define it? Is it just music, or does worshipping God involve more than just warbling? What are our places of worship, and do we still have to sing? Also we talk about death and head…
The Bible might come in handy some day

July 18, 2026 · 41 min

We're back in the library as we continue to sort out our house of faith. This time we're thinking about books we don't use as much, and why it's worth keeping old bits of the Bible around, because you never know which bits are going to…

About the show

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.
