With All Due RespectDivine ComedyIn the final episode for this season, Michael Jensen and Megan Powell du Toit are talking comedy. Their big question: does God have a sense of humour? When humans laugh, are we doing so as people made in the image of God? Or is this only a human response to the world? Or could laughter be a link to life in the next world?The WADR team tackle each of these questions together, then review a comedy whose central character Megan has often been compared with - can you guess which one? Finally...

With All Due RespectA Christian Nation?In this episode, Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen are talking about Christian Nationalism. Nationalism promotes the distinctiveness of the people of a nation. Christian nationalism goes one step further, defining a nation by its faith, and maintaining it should be protected by the state, enshrined in its laws, and actively maintained.But is this so? Is Christian Nationalism even compatible with the Christian faith? In a western society that is often spoken of as Post-Christian, the relationship between Christianity and the State has become an increasingly vexed issue. Michael and Megan start their...

With All Due RespectThe Loneliness EpidemicWhile we have been dealing with a pandemic over the last couple of years, we have also been experiencing what some are calling a loneliness epidemic.Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen discuss how this new struggle has been reported across many countries, particularly in their home country.

With All Due RespectFashionMost of us wear clothes every day - Michael Jensen and Megan Powell du Toit make a point of it! But as much as we might think we pay no attention to what we put on, most of us dress in accordance with the fashion of our day. And like it or not, what we wear communicates something about who we are. Very little thought is given over to Christian fashion. But the WADR team discover the one area that does get talked about is women dressing modestly - they immodestly think they have some helpful things...

With All Due RespectRe-creationCreative acts - and creative people - have sometimes been given short shrift within evangelicalism. Creative work can be seen as less significant than the work of a pastor or evangelist. But on the other hand, the Bible begins with an act of creation - the first and greatest of all creative acts. So Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen ask, 'Is creativity a waste of Christian time, or is it an essential vocation of the Christian?'In pursuit of an answer, the WADR team talk to the artist and cultural thinker Makoto...

With All Due RespectShow Me The MoneyIn the run-up to this weekend's federal election, Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen get all economical.Jesus famously said, "You cannot serve both God and money," or wealth, depending on the translation. While Christian scandals often involve abuse of sex or power, love of money seems to be the sin we often tolerate. Is that because Christians in the west have been living under capitalism for some time now? Capitalism gets quite a bad rap these days, so the WADR team asks, Is it the root of all evil? How should Christians relate...

With All Due RespectHow To VoteNow that the Prime Minister has called for an election, Christians will be bombarded by people wanting to win or influence their vote.

What issues are on Christian minds and hearts this election? Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen put that question out there and receive significant responses from Christian leaders as well as WADR listeners. Then the WADR team then discusses how you might...

With All Due RespectThe Leader's EgoSeveral books have recently been released on the problem of narcissism in the church. When we mix this with some high-profile examples of pastors gone wrong, the ego-centric leader becomes an important issue to consider. While we may not have evidence of legions of diagnosed clinical narcissists in the church, we can all point to church leaders with ego problems - not that surprising when church leadership can come with attached power and status.So, Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen ask how do we deal with the potential ego problem of leadership? Step...

The Saturday just before Easter Sunday has been called various names but that hasn't kept it top of mind in religious circles.It tends to be ignored by many Protestants, stuck awkwardly between the mourning of Good Friday and the joy of Easter Sunday.So Michael Jensen and Megan Powell du Toit ask what was going on in that gap? And what spiritual significance does it have to people of faith today? Then the WADR team reviews the TV series...

Michael Jensen and Megan Powell du Toit discover that this is one subject even Christians, who are in the business of 'saving souls', are less clear on.The WADR team ask some searching questions - do we have a soul and what is i...
