Welcome to Cross Section, a podcast from the Evangelical Alliance.

At some point, we all find ourselves at the cross section of news, current affairs, politics and our faith. How do we navigate the endless news cycle, social media, fake news, cancel culture and more? How do we connect the good news of Jesus with the big conversations our peers are having? Join us as we chat about some of the big stories of the week and share how our faith shapes our engagement. Peter Lynas, Danny Webster, Alicia Edmund and Zanna Meynell invite you to join them as they chat about some of the big and small stories of the week and share how their faith shapes their engagement.

Join the conversation by emailing us: cross.​section@​eauk.​org
