Here's what you get for your ten quid...

In Issue 2: 

Dan McClellan: The TikTok star and biblical scholar talks to S(h)ibboleth about what the Bible is and what it is not, and how it is being leveraged to serve right-wing identity politics.  

News: The 'ceasefire' the West finally wanted, the jubilation at the assassination of a CEO, the violence in DRC, AI and clean power progress by China, an apparent coup in the USA, and more stories from the worlds of faith and justice around the globe.

The Bible: What does AI think of the Bible? What do you remember of it? Is it full of irredeemable horrors or can they be contextualised? Do we need to read it literally to value it? And what does the world really feel about the Bible? We also feature verses you don't hear preached that often. 

Skibidi Toilet: What should we make of the Gen Alpha phenomenon that has dominated YouTube? What doe sit mean?

Capitalism: Three things to understand about it, by Jason Hickel.

Faith, liberation and thought heroes: Profiles of Desmond Tutu, Patrice Lumumba and the thinking of Frantz Fanon. Because we need examples to inspire and guide us. 

God's work:  Boaz Trust, and organisation making the world better. 

Broad churches: One Church Brighton, doing church well. 

Columns and regulars: Sex, Smash the Patriarchy, Dog-Whistle Decoder, Ethicalculator and reviews of political writing, informative video shorts, film and ska. 

Plus funny stuff, creativity and more.
