Today's episode of the Church & Culture Podcast is quite different from the norm. This summer, we're taking a short break from our regular podcast format, and instead have selected various installments from past message series given by James Emery White at Mecklenburg Community Church where he serves as the Senior Pastor. There is no doubt that today's culture has become incredibly polarized - particularly when it comes to politics. That's why many churches avoid the topic altogether. It's also why we named this series at Meck "Where Angels Fear to Tread: Meck Talks Politics." Because church members often have questions like: Does God take political sides and, if so, which ones? Is America a Christian nation and is that even the goal? Are there values meant to guide us when it comes to politics? Do all Christians, if they are truly Christian, have to vote the same way? Does embracing the Christian faith automatically lead you to one particular political party? What if, as a Christian, you feel politically homeless - too conservative for the progressives, and too progressive for the conservatives? In this installment Dr. White explores the mark of a Christian and how we are called to engage the political realm. Episode Links Below you'll find the link to the full series if that's something you are interested in checking out, along with the sources that were used in the development of the message itself: "Where Angels Fear to Tread: Meck Talks Politics" The Apology of Tertullian, AD 197.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the rising popularity of “pickleball.” Invented in 1965, this sport combines tennis, table tennis and badminton and is attracting people of all ages and backgrounds. Capitalizing on its popularity are plenty of businesses, athletic associations and even churches. This discussion delves into the uniqueness of pickleball but then goes further to discuss the broader relationship between churches and sports. Dr. White riffs on sports ministries and how churches can and must navigate the increasingly demanding world of youth sports. He also dives into the individual Christian's relationship to sports and the priority we give them in our lives. Episode Links Today's conversation was sparked by an article by Religion News titled, “Churches hope to tap the power of pickleball”, but as mentioned in the podcast, the church's relationship with sports dates back much further. You can read more about the history of sports ministry, provided by GameDay Sports Ministries HERE, or by The Christian Athlete HERE. Alexis mentioned a handful of past podcast discussions she and Dr. White had on a few aspects of modern culture that provide some helpful cultural context, such as the current pandemic of loneliness (CCP76: On the Never Marrieds), the desire for religious experiences (CCP145: On Whether Churches Should be Churchy), and why men are looking for “manly” churches (CCP135: On Women Leaving the Church). Pertinent to today's conversation is an exploration of the role of athletics in the lives of families. For more on that topic, here are some links you might be interested in checking out: Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra, “Youth Sports, Healthy Families, and the Future of the Church,” The Gospel Coalition. Melissa Steffan, “The Main Reason for Declining Church Attendance: Children's Sports?,” Christianity Today. More broadly, Dr. White discussed the way in which sports have become somewhat of a modern religion, with many attributing religious-like experiences to sports highlights or god-like statuses to athletes. To read more about that, here are some suggested resources: Kurt Streeter, “In Troubled Times, the Sports World Offers a Necessary Salve,” The New York Times. David Briggs, “The Final Four, travel teams and empty pews: Research on sports and religion,” The Association of Religion Data Archives. Hubert Dreyfus and Sean Dorrance Kelly, All Things Shining. David Brooks, “The Arena Culture,” The New York Times. While sports may seem to provide echoes of something truly transcendent, the real source can be found in the God of the Christian faith. Dr. White shares about C.S. Lewis' journey to God as captured in his autobiography, Surprised by Joy.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the rise of the “romantasy” genre of literature, as well as the definition and implications of pornography. Is porn only that which you watch visually? What's the difference between reading a sex scene and seeing one? The discussion also explores the increasing consumption of pornography among women, the intersection of literature and pornography, and the reasons behind the popularity of romance novels. Finally, it offers a Christian perspective on navigating romance literature and its potential impact on personal relationships. Episode Links Today's conversation was sparked by a recent podcast conversation on Christianity Today titled “The Rise of Women's Porn with Phylicia Masonheimer.” The truth is, porn is a topic that the Church must be more open about discussing as it's so harmful to those who consume it - maybe without them even realizing it. While romantasy books are growing in popularity, this is not the first time that books have been written that could be labeled as “mommy porn.” There is a series that Dr. White delivered at Mecklenburg Community Church that we'd encourage you to check out. Titled “Fifty Shades,” it takes a very candid look at the book Fifty Shades of Grey and the implications for those who read it. For the statistics on porn addiction, we'd suggest you visit the addictionhelp.com page specifically devoted to porn stats HERE. And then regarding some of the other articles and data mentioned in today's episode, here are some links that you may be interested in checking out: Keiran Southern, “Watching Pornography Destroyed My Brain, Says Pop Star Billie Eilish,” The Times UK.

«Чи можна запалити стрит-культуру там, де її ніколи не було?» – саме з цим питанням ми зайшли у Стрий. Маленьке місто, без хіп-хоп спадщини, без своїх графіті-райдерів і локальних скейтерів. Стрий – це газові вузли, заводська буденність і спроба вирватися за рамки звичного. Але хтось має зробити перший крок. Юлія Жданова – aka B-girl Nova, яка живе брейкінгом 24/7, виховує молоду кров і тримає темп на всіх фронтах. Вона створила спільноту з нуля: відкрила зал Real Dope, тренує дітей, організовує локальний двіж. Це не історія про «все було готове». Це історія про «все зробила з нуля». Бо стрит-культура – це не просто мистецтво чи спорт, це спосіб вийти за межі свого району, навіть коли їх у місті лише два – центр і мікрорайон. Що таке перетворити passion to profession у маленькому місті? Як збудувати ком'юніті там, де навіть не знають, що таке брейкінг? Чому в Стрию важче, ніж у Львові чи Києві, але це і є фішка? Що важливіше – перемоги на батлах чи той факт, що діти взагалі дізналися про стрит-культуру? Як виглядає реальний street culture business з погляду 19-річної B-girl? Цей епізод – частина освітнього процесу Street Culture Academy, який ми записали разом з її учасниками, щоб зафіксувати їхній досвід і рефлексії в контексті стріт-культури рідних міст. Наша незмінна локація – Urban Camp Lviv. Восьмий епізод Street Culture Podcast «Міста» – це про тих, хто не чекає поки «хтось зробить», а робить сам. Про тих, хто будує спадщину з нуля. Стрий на карті стрит-культури – вже факт. Слухайте епізод про Стрий на Apple podcasts, Spotify, SoundCloud і MEGOGO Audio. Давайте разом доведемо, що кожне місто – це потенційний центр культури. Головне – не здаватися!

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss a new Pew Research study that was conducted with participants from three dozen countries, reflecting a wide range of religious traditions. The findings showed that not only is belief in life after death widespread, but so is a belief in spirits. The majority of adults in most countries believe that animals and parts of nature can have spirits or spiritual energies - think mountains or rivers or trees. This begs the question: what is a spirit, at least as defined by those who believe in them? Is this the same thing as a soul? And what about ghosts? Episode Links The podcast recently looked at a topic related to life after death, specifically the occurrence of near-death experiences. You can find that episode HERE. And as Alexis mentioned, this is not the first time that the podcast has delved into the spiritual realm. We'd encourage you to go back and listen to these past episodes if you missed them: CCP11: On Wicca, CCP58: On Your Horoscope and Starbucks, and CCP77: On Angels. Dr. White discussed the importance of having a sound understanding of Christian theology when it comes to things related to the spirit and the soul, particularly the knowledge of what it means to be made in the image of God. There is a fantastic course offered through Church & Culture called “Theology on Tap,” exploring answers Christians give to questions people have about God and all things related to God. You can find out more about that course HERE. Finally, there are two series we suggest you check out that were delivered by James Emery White at Mecklenburg Community Church. The first is called “Paranormal” looking at the world of the occult and the map of our spiritual world. The second is called “So What's the Difference?,” which took a look at the key differences between Christianity and the religions of the world. As Dr. White said, in today's culture the younger generations seem to think that they are following the beliefs of the Christian faith while in reality, they are simply picking and choosing the parts of all the world's religions they like the best.

А ви б продали свою квартиру, щоб збудувати зал для вуличних танців та паркуру? У сьомому епізоді Street Culture Podcast «Міста» Рівне. Ми говоримо про ризики й рішення, про вуличну культуру, яка проростає у кожному дворі, якщо вчасно дати їй простір. У студії – Вікторія Мартинюк, засновниця Центру вуличних культур у Рівному No Name Crew, педагогиня, танцівниця, менеджерка. Це історія людини, яка із тепличної дівчинки з York (так, це район у Рівному, на місцевому слензі) виростає в лідерку свого міста, яка не боїться брати відповідальність і будувати студію, коли в кишені було лише 500 грн і реп в навушниках. Як із підліткового життя вирватися у драйв хіп-хопу? Чому назви районів іноді звучать крутіше за міста? Що змушує кидати стабільну роботу в банку, щоб вести тренування за 20 км від дому? Як народжується центр вуличних культур і на що здатна одна ідея, якщо підкріпити її хоробрістю? Цей випуск – про сміливість бути собою. Про те, як No Name Crew стає базою для сотень дітей. Про те, як York у Рівному створює свою карту культури, де street – це не просто слово з назви. Цей епізод – частина освітнього процесу Street Culture Academy, який ми записали разом з її учасниками, щоб зафіксувати їхній досвід і рефлексії в контексті стріт-культури рідних міст. Наша незмінна локація – Urban Camp Lviv. П'ятий епізод – не про туристичний Харків, а про той, який живе у дворах, на стінах і в серцях тих, хто тут качає. Слухайте на Apple podcasts, Spotify, SoundCloud і MEGOGO Audio. Новий сезон подкасту про вуличну культуру України творимо спільно зі Street Culture, uabreaking та New Democracy Fund. Дізнавайтесь, як брейкінг, графіті, хіп-хоп та стріт-арт змінювали обличчя міст і творили нові ком'юніті.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they take time to discuss all things related to the pope in light of the recent death of Pope Francis at the age of 88. He served as the head of the Catholic Church for 12 years, and his death certainly sparked a media storm. So this episode takes time to explore the history of the office of the pope, how future popes are elected through the process of the conclave, and more. Episode Links Dr. White mentioned the attention that the 2024 movie Conclave, has been getting, particularly since Pope Francis passed away. Holly Meyer wrote an article recently for Associated Press News titled, “So you saw ‘Conclave' the movie. Here's what it got right – and wrong – about real-life conclaves.” You can read that article HERE. And then, if this episode sparked an interest in learning more about the papacy, here are a number of articles we'd suggest you check out: “What are the Catholic Church's rites after the death of a pope and the election of a new one?” Los Angeles Times.

Учора – історія, завтра – таємниця, сьогодні – це дарунок. Як виглядав брейкінг у 2000-х? Чим Луцьк став точкою входу в хіп-хоп для майбутнього артиста? Як респекти на районі здобувалися через «фрізи», а не через кулаки? В одинадцятому епізоді другого сезону Street Culture Podcast ловимо олдскульний вайб разом із B-boy Sharky-D ака Дмитром Монатіком – тим самим MONATIK, який до стадіонів прокачував DBS Crew і вчив muchmills на асфальті без базового елемента павермува windmill, просто на впертості, щоб довести, що це можливо! Він виріс на вуличному споті драмтеатру, VHS касетах з корейського Power Moves і секонд-хендах, де полювали на Nike Cortez та Adidas Superstar. Дмитро згадує, як формувалася вулична культура в Луцьку, як виглядали перші тренування без тренерів, як VHS змінювали життя і як після зламаної щелепи на районі не здатися, а продовжити відпрацьовувати headspin у лікарняній палаті, і ще й кайф ловити. Це не перебільшення – це Луцьк, 40-й район, початок 2000-х. Поїхали! У цьому епізоді: Як виглядали перші трені в «Сучаснику» і чому шнурки в суперстарах були важливіші за оцінки в школі? Хто такі DBS і Ground Beat і чим вони різнилися у стилі? Чому пацани з Луцька боялись не двійок, а гопників, які чекали біля ДК після батла? Як Харків на батлах розривав, а «Торнадо Крю» з Сум зарядили на форму для crew? А ще згадуємо нову спільну роботу MONATIK, OTOY та Street Culture – кліп «I.D.», який став маніфестом вуличної культури і стрит спорту. Відео зняте в Urban Park на ВДНГ за участі українських атлетів, які представляють Україну на Олімпійських іграх у вуличних видах спорту та хіп-хоп ком'юніті.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss how just a few weeks ago YouTube celebrated its 20th anniversary. Few could have imagined that a 19-second video of a man looking at elephants at the San Diego Zoo could have led to the creation of a global media powerhouse. With 20 billion videos having been uploaded to date, we thought it was fitting to discuss the countless ways that YouTube has revolutionized media and our culture. Episode Links In today's episode, Dr. White shared a ton of facts and figures on YouTube related to its history, its growth and where it's headed in the future. Here are a collection of articles and blogs that we'd encourage you to take a look at if you're interested in learning more or finding any stats that were shared today: Wendy Lee, “YouTube turns 20 years old. How it changed TV as we know it,” Los Angeles Times. Todd Spangler, “YouTube Says It Now Hosts More Than 20 Billion Videos, Unveils New Features and Easter Eggs in 20th Birthday Celebration,” Variety. Dade Hayes, “YouTube's Revenue Will Top Disney's This Year As It Becomes “The Home For All Things Video”, Analyst Says,” Deadline. James Hardy, “Who Invented YouTube: The Visionaries Behind the Digital Revolution,” History Cooperative. Viraj Mahesh, “20 ways we're celebrating two decades of YouTube,” YouTube Official Blog. “YouTube” 1440. If you're interested in checking out YouTube's first video ever posted, you can click HERE to watch “Me at the Zoo.” And you can click HERE to check out the most-viewed videos of all time on YouTube. And then Dr. White mentioned a recent news article discussing just how much people increasingly trust their peers and the type of content that they release on social media today. You can read “Gen Z increasingly listens to peers over doctors for health advice” found in Axios HERE. Finally, Dr. White turned the conversation to the takeaways for the church, and how we need to meet people where they are at in order to share the message of Jesus with them. He wrote about this in depth in his book, Hybrid Church, which you can order from Amazon HERE. The primary way to meet people where they are in today's culture is through YouTube. If you are interested, here are some of the channels tied to Mecklenburg Community Church that he mentioned in the conversation today, including the link to the Church & Culture Podcast on YouTube if you're interested in checking us out there: Mecklenburg Community Church | @MeckChurch MecKidz Children's Ministry | @MecKidzChurch REALIFE High School Ministry | @REALIFEHSM MAXlife Middle School Ministry | @maxlifemsm7079 Meck Creative | @MeckCreative Church & Culture | @churchandculture For those of you who are new to Church & Culture, we'd love to invite you to subscribe (for free of course) to the twice-weekly Church & Culture blog and check out the Daily Headline News - a collection of headlines from around the globe each weekday.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss a recent Lifeway Research study which found that despite some disturbing trends in the number of church closures across the United States, 94% of pastors believe their church will still be open in 10 years. Whereas in the 1940s nearly 85% of Americans claimed they belonged to a church, now that number is less than 50%. So what happens to these churches when they close? And what is the outcome for pastors as well as those who considered it their church home? Episode Links As Alexis mentioned at the top of the podcast, the decline in Christianity in America has been touched on in more than a handful of past episodes. If you've missed these conversations and would like to go back and listen to them, they include: CCP135: On Women Leaving the Church, CCP105: On Cultural Caricatures of the Christian Faith, CCP100: On Unchristian Christians, CCP94: On the Growing Lack of Confidence in Clergy, CCP32: On a Non-Christian America, and CCP15: On Denominational Decline. If you are interested in looking at more of the data related to the number of church closings forecasted in the U.S. mentioned in today's conversation, as well as what's being done with houses of worship that have already closed, we'd encourage you to check out these two articles: Yonat Shimron, “Study: More churches closing than opening,” Religion News Service Mark Dent, “Can God fix America's housing crisis?" The Hustle They also discussed how when churches close, it can leave a huge void in the wider community being served by the church. Dr. White mentioned a current case gaining attention where Christian pop artist Amy Grant is fighting to save a church that was founded by her grandfather from a local businessman. You can read more about that in the article by Cameron McWhirter in The Wall Street Journal HERE. Finally, Dr. White very poignantly ended today's episode by reading a blog that is published annually at Church & Culture. It's titled “The Monday After Easter,” and is a blog written specifically to pastors who may be struggling with an underwhelming turnout on Easter Sunday despite all of their prayer, faith and efforts. If you'd like to read that blog, you can find it HERE.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss how for many Americans, Easter is one of the few times in the year they show a willingness to attend a church service. If they do, they'll likely hear about an empty tomb and the significance of the resurrection of Jesus thousands of years later. For many, the hope of new life in Jesus is enough to propel them to faith or to a deeper commitments to Jesus; but for others, they may be left with lingering questions that will serve as stumbling blocks to faith. Questions like: So what? How is this relevant for my life? And can I even believe this happened? So the question for the church is how are we going to answer those questions - what evidence can we offer for the resurrection of Jesus? Episode Links There are several series that Dr. White has given at Mecklenburg Community Church if you want to take a deeper dive into the events leading up to Jesus' crucifixion and His resurrection. These include: “The Passion,” “Risen,” “Seven Last Words of Jesus,” and “Why Believe.” And in case you did not know, past messages given by Dr. White are arranged by category at Church & Culture HERE. You'll find series on specific books of the Bible, on evangelism and apologetics, cultural topics and more. When discussing Jesus' death on the cross in today's episode, Dr. White mentioned an article from the Journal of the American Medical Association written by Dr. William D. Edwards and titled “On the Physical Death of Jesus Christ.” For those interested in reading this article, you can find it HERE. “The Resurrection of the Son of God” by N.T. Wright was another resource that Dr. White discussed, and you can find his book HERE. And one more book that we'd strongly recommend is written by Dr. White himself: Christianity for People Who Aren't Christians. It offers incredibly helpful explanations of the most common questions that people have when it comes to the Christian faith. You can find it on Amazon HERE.

Чому в Луцьку реп довго залишався в тіні, попри гучну спадщину? Як в місті, де зростали Monatik, «Тартак», And, Андрій Кальков, хіп-хоп доводиться виборювати наново? Як вижити в бетонному постсовку і не зламати свій стиль? І хто ті, хто вирішили: «Тепер тут буде інакше»? Шостий епізод Street Culture подкасту «Міста» – про Луцьк. Місто, де брейк ще пам'ятає сайфери на районі, де графіті залишаються невидимими героями фасадів, а молодь будує сцену буквально з нуля. У центрі цієї історії – Владислав Почебула, хіп-хоп-артист, комунікаційник ГО «місто.ребут». Він же – один із тих, хто створює нову Луцьку хіп-хоп реальність: події, студія звукозапис, мерч, фестивалі. І при цьому не забуває, що реп – це не про лайки, а про справжність. Ми говоримо про луцький вайб. Про те, як для Владислава легка атлетика трансформувалася в дисципліну для рухів у хіп-хоп культурі. Про локальну сцену, яка переростає в культурну платформу. І про те, як виглядає місто, коли реп починає звучати не з колонок, а з його вулиць. Тут будуть інсайди про недосліджені брейк-команди, анонімні графіті-герої, які виросли на Бермудах, про локальних продюсерів, які пишуть фірмовий звук у гуртожитку, і про те, як звучить хіп-хоп, якщо він не для розваги, а став частиною твого життя. Цей епізод – частина освітнього процесу Street Culture Academy, який ми записали разом з її учасниками, щоб зафіксувати їхній досвід і рефлексії в контексті стріт-культури рідних міст. Наша незмінна локація – Urban Camp Lviv. П'ятий епізод – не про туристичний Харків, а про той, який живе у дворах, на стінах і в серцях тих, хто тут качає. Слухайте на Apple podcasts, Spotify, SoundCloud і MEGOGO Audio. Новий сезон подкасту про вуличну культуру України творимо спільно зі Street Culture, uabreaking та New Democracy Fund. Дізнавайтесь, як брейкінг, графіті, хіп-хоп та стріт-арт змінювали обличчя міст і творили нові ком'юніті.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the interesting cultural connection between the demise of Hooters (which has now filed for bankruptcy) and the rise in popularity of OnlyFans. For those not familiar with this website, it's a platform where people offer online content that they've created, which is usually pornographic in nature, to paid subscribers. People are spending thousands of dollars to both see content created by their favorite creators and to interact with them through texting and personalized content - essentially creating a fantasy relationship. To be frank, an establishment like Hooters is absolutely tame when compared to the ubiquitous nature of porn. Episode Links Whereas years ago men might have been drawn to a place like Hooters, younger generations are so much more private, and access to websites like OnlyFans affords that privacy. There are several articles that would be worth your time to read, particularly those about OnlyFans, as people need to be aware of how addicting the platform has become for so many people: Elaine Kurtenbach & Dee-Ann Durbin, “Restaurant chain Hooters goes bust and files for bankruptcy protection,” AP News, April 1, 2025. Russell Moore, “Hooters and the Future of the Church,” Christianity Today, April 2, 2025. Carly Lewis, “Addicted to OnlyFans Men are spending tens of thousands of dollars to text with their favorite creators.” New Yorker Magazine - The Cut, April 1, 2025. Magdalene Taylor, “When Is OnlyFans Cheating, and When Is It Just Porn?” New Yorker Magazine - The Cut, December 14, 2024. Ezra Marcus, “The ‘E-Pimps' of OnlyFans,” The New York Times, June 15, 2023.

Today, we're discussing the tragic murder of Austin Metcalf — a case that's not just heartbreaking but deeply revealing of a larger cultural crisis we need to address head-on. I'll be sharing my raw thoughts on what happened, and more importantly, having the uncomfortable (but necessary) conversation surrounding crime statistics in the black community.If we're ever going to see real change — fewer senseless killings, safer neighborhoods, and stronger families — then we have to stop tiptoeing around the truth. It's time to talk about why these patterns keep repeating and what cultural shifts must happen to break the toxic and deadly cycle.This isn't about hate — it's about accountability, truth, and the fight for life, stability, and genuine justice.—https://policecoffee.com/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACG7qmLTSF8TidU6uJpGkHMYzxsnd&gclid=Cj0KCQjwqcO_BhDaARIsACz62vPh4GA_6w_PdX8w4PW0sRhPD76KOyhYBmiEOdpiLXHP1G10c9kaPMEaAkK-EALw_wcB

Бетонні джунглі Харкова – це більше, ніж вулиці. Це стиль життя, де кожен спот – арена, кожен мурал – маніфест, а кожен двіж – протест. Тут не питають дозволу творити, тут просто роблять. Як місто стало таким качовим? Чи реально будувати стрит-культуру, коли все навколо летить у пекло? І чому саме Харків задає тон у стрит-темі? Гість п'ятого епізоду Street Culture Podcast «Міста» Валерій Бичков – харків'янин, бібой, громадський діяч, співзасновник Street Culture Academy. Чувак, який реально змінює Харків, ловить вайб вулиць і знає, як інтегрувати стрит-культуру в урбан-простір. Харківська вулиця – це стиль чи виживання? Як війна перекроїла місто і що з того вийшло? Урбаністика, стрит-арт і архітектура – де межа між системою і андеґраундом? Де зараз топові споти і чи реально підняти нові без бюрократичного зашквару? Чому Харків – це не просто місто, а двіж, який не зламати? Цей епізод – частина освітнього процесу Street Culture Academy, який ми записали разом з її учасниками, щоб зафіксувати їхній досвід і рефлексії в контексті стріт-культури рідних міст.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss Barna Group teaming up with the Aspen Group design firm to explore possible connections between spiritual formation and the physical spaces that we inhabit. Questions such as: What does it mean to be formed as a follower of Jesus? And can the spaces that we meet in help motivate this growth? Also, how might our physical experiences of a church relate to our worship and understanding of God? In simple terms, they were trying to determine whether it's best for churches to look “churchy.” Episode Links Daniel Silliman wrote an article in Christianity Today which sparked today's conversation. It's titled “Americans Think Church Should Look Churchy,” and Silliman said that the survey found that most people “don't like trendy, modern buildings.” Dr. White would argue that while people do indeed want to attend church in a space that is sacred, spiritual and safe, that doesn't necessarily mean they want it to look overly churchy like some of the medieval churches in Europe. He wrote a blog recently about this topic titled “Churches Looking Churchy” which you can read HERE. There's another recent blog that was written by Dr. White that was referenced in this episode. It's called “This Is Church,” where Dr. White addresses how many businesses and parachurch organizations can try to step in and supplant themselves as the church when they most definitely are not. And if the discussion of the cathedral found in Chartres, France was of interest to you, we'd encourage you to read the Church & Culture blog titled, “Chartres.” For those of you who are new to Church & Culture, we'd love to invite you to subscribe (for free of course) to the twice-weekly Church & Culture blog and check out the Daily Headline News - a collection of headlines from around the globe each weekday.

Don't be shy, send me a message!A real change for the podcast: After 5 years of talking about British culture, it's time to move on and talk about 'The Middle Kingdom', China. I lived in China from 2015-2021, and regularly wrote e-mails to my parents detailing my time there. The first half of the podcast is me reading from these and adding in my reflections almost a decade on. I talk about my first arrival in China, the visa process and settling in at work, as well as a day trip to Hong Kong. This is the first 30 minutes. I then read a fourth e-mail detailing my first trip to Macao. I do actually have a series of reflective pieces I wrote for Chinese social media in 2021 as I was leaving. I read these prior to recording, but didn't read them out, as the podcast is long enough as it is. If you enjoy this episode, perhaps I will use them later more fully.In the second half of this podcast, I talk about Chinese cultural topics as requested by my Chinese friends. These include:Different foods and citiesChinese tech citiesThe Monkey KingHou YiThe movie 'Hero' with Jet LiFood culture (more detail)Language Chinese New Year I would usually do a great deal of reading, online and from my own book collection, before talking on such specialised topics. But on this occasion, I draw 100% from my experiences, as I currently remember them. Again, I am drawing on old writing, and another source I used was a leather-bound notebook I filled with entries detailing my day-to-day life in my first few years in China. I created this for my parents, who are well-travelled but had not been to China. The notebook passed back to me after my mother passed away. I was gratified to learn that she had often read it, and it was always close to hand for her. For further reading and viewing, I recommend the Youtube channels, @VideosByCaine and @DaNiuLaoShi both by a friend of mine who also lived in China. His experiences are naturally different from mine, his personal perspective is unique, but there is much in common also. I highly recommend all his content. Between the both of us, you would get a very full and rounded idea of life in China. No two people experience the same (or similar) events in the same way. There is much to gain from seeing both our experiences. I really like this video my friend created, called "China, I miss you": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R28JoQszHqI...and also the video below, which looks at why he first went to China. Don't worry about the Chinese title of the video, he speaks in English throughout! Actually, the thoughts in his video very much relate to the first half of this podcast. We do often compare and contrast our experiences, and our differing reflections, so again, I really recommend checking out both our content. 回忆之旅 — 安庆漫跑记 | 大牛跑步第六集: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1cuC2_M1IM If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me using any of the methods below! Message me anytime on Instagram, @FlemingNeverDies, or e-mail: AlbionNeverDies@gmail.comCheck out my https://www.youtube.com/britishcultureCheck out my Red Bubble shopSubscribe to my newsletter for update e-mails, random postcards, and stickers: Support the show

Бориспіль – не просто місто-транзит, чи аеропорт, а точка, де вулична культура не стоїть на паузі.

Гостя четвертого епізоду Street Culture Podcast «Міста»: Вікторія Шевц – депутатка, керівниця управління молоді та спорту Бориспільської міськради, яка знає, як об'єднувати активістів, владу і місто в єдиний вайб.

Чому молодь повертається у Бориспіль, щоб тусуватися, і що робить місто комфортним для неформальних спільнот. Як використовувати стару інфраструктуру – наприклад, закинуті бойлерні – щоб створювати нові простори для молоді. Чому співпраця активістів і влади дає найкращі результати.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss the Apple TV series “Severance,” which has become something of a modern cultural phenomenon. With only two seasons under its belt, it's already become Apple TV's most-watched series in its history, recently surpassing the wildly popular show “Ted Lasso.” So what is behind the popularity? And why are people using the terms “innie” and “outie,” but not in reference to their belly buttons? This conversation explores how “Severance” brings up questions regarding work/life balance, human identity, the need for human connection, escapism, and more. Episode Links Because “Severance” is such a popular series, it has been making waves within mainstream media. While this discussion tackles some of the profound ways the show is generating conversation, there's more to explore. To go deeper, we suggest you check out some of the following news articles: Maya Salam, “On ‘Severance,' a Brutal Tale of Female Self-Loathing,” The New York Times, March 21, 2025, read online.

In this episode of The Truth In This Art, I welcome Roxanne Sauriol Hauenherm, a self-taught Montreal-based artist whose captivating paintings of female figures have garnered international recognition.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they pick up where they left off last week in a discussion prompted by the recent launch of NASA's SPHEREx Telescope, which is hoping to find answers to how the world began. As Christians, we have a firm belief that God created all that there is. However, Genesis says quite a few things with regard to the history of the world that seem - at first glance - to either contradict science or that have not been corroborated by science. Episode Links If you missed last week's podcast episode, we'd encourage you to pause and listen to that conversation first. You can find “CCP142: On Genesis, Part One” on your favorite podcasting platform, on YouTube, or HERE on the Church & Culture website. For a deeper dive into the book of Genesis, we'd suggest you check out a series given by James Emery White at Mecklenburg Community Church called “Primordial: Genesis and the World's Primeval History.” This was not the first time that Dr. White tackled the faith-science dynamic in his messages. Here are a few other series that we'd encourage you to take a look at: “The Science of God,” “Astrophysics… for People Who Are Open to God," and “Don't Check Your Brains at the Door.” Dr. White also made reference to Meck's current series, a study of Paul's first letter to the church in Corinth titled, “Messy.” And as today's conversation delved into Noah and the ark, we thought you'd be interested in checking out this series from James Emery White, “Noah.” And if you're on the hunt for more info about the SPHEREx Telescope or today's conversation, be sure to read some of these helpful resources: Marcelo Gleiser, “The 10 Most Important Questions In Science,” NPR, September 11, 2013, read online.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss how NASA has made a huge step forward in wanting to bring science into the realm of the existential as this week, they launched into space what's known as the SPHEREx Telescope. It has the goal of answering some pivotal questions like: How did the universe begin? How did galaxies start to develop? How did human beings get here? Christians feel that the Bible gives the answers to these questions, which some feel flies in the face of what science offers. It's important, then, to have a clear understanding of exactly what the Bible says in the book of Genesis.
