One of the first things which struck me about the Qur’an the first time I read it was how it can suddenly and jarringly jump to a completely different scene,
I’ve often been told that the Torah and the Injil were only for the Jews. However, two problems: The Pickthall translation doesn’t hide it: He hath revealed unto thee (Muhammad)
John Fontain recently debated David Wood on the Islamic Dilemma, which points out that the Qu’ran both affirms the Torah and Gospel while contradicting them. John has a rather different

Marie and I will still be getting married at the end of July. Unfortunately, with the present COVID restrictions, the wedding itself is going to be very small, restricted to our wedding party and Marie’s immediate family. Due to travel restrictions, all of my family will be watching the livestream from England (while dressed in their formal wedding attire, of course)!
However, since we took the time to create a wedding website, I thought we’d share it here and ask for your prayers as I prepare to make Marie the happiest woman in the world!
In the previous episode, I spoke to Rev Brian McGreevy about the book we’re going to be talking about next Season, The Screwtape Letters. As a bonus episode, I thought I would share the audio of a talk I gave a few months ago in Los Angeles.
In anticipation of next season when we read through The Screwtape Letters, I sat down with Rev. Brian McGreevy to talk about this book and his own C.S. Lewis podcasts.
