Bible Bashin' with Mac & Morley

Did someone say Bible Bashin' season two!? It's been a while but Mac & Morley are back in the shed, discussing a myriad of things, including locked bathroom shenanigans, stolen football boots and how Reuben was robbed by the Royal family! As you listen a long, learn how the Gospel is not about fixing up before you come to Jesus, but about being accepted in your mess, and loved into transformation. Hear how Reuben and John balance social media with witnessing and how Jesus didn't solely preach and teach on the street corners but moved into the neighbourhood; and how we are called to do the same.

Mac & Morley welcome Ben Dobbins to the shed abroad for episode eleven! Starting with the usual nonsense, John and Reuben discuss last week's quiz before transitioning to argue about the 'real' Bebington, discuss postcodes and reminisce over school assembly bangers. Thankfully, Ben eventually shuts them both up as he shares how he came to live for Jesus; from early encounters, to deep conviction and ultimate freedom. Join us as Ben touches on who Jesus is to him and the difference God has made in his own life!

Mac & Morley are back for a kinda' Christmas special! No lights, Christmas hats or crackers; just Red Bull, water and a little Christmas quiz! Finally back behind the microphone, John and Reuben both share of some pretty awkward moments in front of crowds, before changing gears and talking about what Christmas truly means to them. The reoccurring thought is that it's all about Jesus and it's a little more about His presence, than a sack full of presents! We want to wish all our listeners a very happy Christmas, and a blessed New Year. We pray you enjoy time with loved one's and as the food is shared and presents are opened, you draw ever-closer to Jesus, the reason for the season.

After a busy summer break, Mac & Morley are back with another episode! Join us as John gets candid about walking through difficult situations as a Christian and the importance of vulnerable honesty, whilst also telling a tale of Jack the Ripper from his time in London. Between questions on rubik’s cubes and discussing accents, Reuben finds himself talking about his time in the ‘bible belt’, before things shift gear and the duo discuss how acceptance from God comes solely through faith in Jesus, and not any of our own works. Good news indeed! Thank you for bearing with us during our summer break - we are so glad to be back with you! As always please share the podcast far and wide!

In today's episode Mac & Morley reminisce on some of their childhood adventures including trips to shady woodland, solo trips to New Brighton and the days before Apple Maps. John then delves into the challenges and struggles both he and his wife have faced over the past seven episodes and how through every painful moment, the presence of God was their required constant. As the conversation continues, it's discussed how heartbreak and pain can bring even the most hardened atheist to the feet of Jesus and for anyone struggling in life, they can call out to God and allow Him to break in. It may be that God brings you through a situation or it may be that God brings about a miracle, but whatever happens, God will be with you. The episode wraps up with the discussion that despite all the great miracles God can do for His children, the greatest miracle of all is the miracle of salvation - that as believers we have been cleansed from every sin, given new life and can intimately know the God of the universe because of all Jesus has done. Don't let this free gift pass you by!

Can you believe we've already reached episode seven!? Today's episode has an interesting beginning as John shares his days of being in the blazing outback in nothing but his underpants. In a much cooler shed on the Wirral, Reuben touches briefly on his 100K race across the fields of Oxfordshire. From there, Bible Bashin' switches gears as Mac & Morley discuss the evidence for the resurrection and how death is the elephant in the room as well as the monster that every individual needs saving from. If there was ever an episode where both John and Reuben get caught up in sharing the hope found in Jesus and the beauty of the Gospel, this is it.

We're back with a very special guest, Matt Courtney, who works at St James in the City in Liverpool. In this episode, we hear how John set someone on fire in high school, how Matt was mistaken for a female magician and how Reuben managed to score a few days off school when someone pooed on the headteacher's desk! As the discussion deepens, hear about how Jesus is to be more than just a 'fix' in the difficult times of life and how the heaviest of burdens can be laid at Jesus' feet in exchange for peace, joy, forgiveness and wholeness.

Join Mac & Morley for a bonus episode with a guest who is the epitome of someone the Bible calls an evangelist! In this short episode, hear about Mark's shady history as a pop star touring Europe and how discovering Jesus was infinitely better. Mark brings a candid reminder of eternity and the life to come as well as sharing how a relationship with Jesus truly transforms us from the inside out.

The hot summer weather may be at fault for today's episode as John and Reuben discuss everything and nothing in today's session! Try and keep the pace as we discuss Captain Bible and the Dome of Darkness, Apex Predators, swimming the River Mersey and how Christianity brings life into full HD. If you last with us, you may even get to hear a snippet of a "falsely advertised song" from Reuben about a much loved character from the big screen. Follow us on Instagram to take part in some fun quizzes and also potentially see pictures of John with a full head of hair. @BibleBashin

Join us for episode three as we discuss why Christian's shouldn't take themselves too seriously, how to find the 'perfect' church, and why both Christian's and non-Christian's should develop a habit of picking up their Bibles. Stick around to hear how Reuben nearly ended an elderly man's life in an inner-city church in Liverpool, how John was once the Chronicle quiz master and how the smallest of Gospel seeds can bring about lasting change in the life of another.
