David Hayward is a cartoonist, artist, author and chronicler of Christian deconstruction from conservative evangelicalism and the right-leaning politics in which evangelicals are so often raised.

Episode 118 of Beer Christianity features an interview with David, covering his art, his view of Jesus, Donald Trump, the value of the satirical image, and how Nazis don't like or understand art.

The interview is the basis of an edited, feature Q&A in Issue 8 of Shibboleth magazine, which also features one of David Hayward's works on the cover. The episode opens with some chat between Malky, Laura and Jonty about Scottish fans at the men's football World Cup and some recommended listens for progressive Christians into podcasts. Check out David's work at nakedpastor.com You can listen to Episode 118 anywhere: at the beginning of your deconstruction journey; in a flock of rainbow sheep; in a church that refuses to let Jesus in; or right here…

James Schneider co-founded Momentum, the grassroots left-wing organisation that helped Jeremy Corbyn become leader of the Labour Party, and he's our guest this episode.

James currently heads up Communications for Progressive International, a group that unites and mobilises trade unions, leftist parties, peasant movements and groups like Code Pink, the Democratic Socialists of America and South Africa's shack dwellers movement. He holds a degree in Theology, too, and he talked to Jonty Langley for Shibboleth magazine Issue 7 and Beer Christianity.

It's an excellent episode if you're interested in the US anti-ICE movement, the history of US aggression around the world, and what part religion is playing in it all.

James is a brilliant thinker, the author of Our Bloc: How We Win, and has even played Chess at an international level -- so you're gonna want to hear what he has to say.

If you want to read an edited version of the interview, as well as more pieces about what's happening in and because of the US, check out Issue 7 of Shibboleth magazine.

We had a LOT of fun with this one.

Jeremy Steele is an author, podcaster and progressive pastor who leads Not Church on Discord and whose book How To Not Suck As a Christian offers an alternative vision of inclusion, anti-racism and spirituality without bigotry. He's also a fun guy, as you'll hear during this episode.

Jonty, Laura and Malky talk to Jeremy about coming out of harmful belief systems and embracing a more open and less prescriptive path, how apologetics is garbage and which whisky is a red flag. There's also a moment that should serve as a cautionary tale for those choosing bottle-openers.

Beer Christianity is an anti-capitalist, pro-BLM, pro-LGBTQ+, anti-imperialist, post-post-post-evangelical podcast where we drink a bit and talk a lot. Our aim is to be real, helpful and entertaining. To ourselves. But you are also welcome.

We also have a sister magazine called S(h)ibboleth and it takes up most of our time, money and effort. If you have any interest in the intersection of faith and leftist politics, you should subscribe. Issue 5, about work, labour rights and horrible bosses is out soon.
