Exploring life following Jesus Christ in South Africa
About the Podcast
Overview
Faithful Exiles is a Christian podcast, we explore topics that are relevant to a South African context using a christian worldview. Although we aim to interview high-caliber guests that are knowledgeable in their field, we encourage you to grapple with, question, and have discussions within your community on these topics.
Why the name...(and purpose)?
Faithful because firstly, God is the one who is unendingly faithful to his people by reconciling them to himself through the blood of Jesus. But also because those who want to be reconciled to God by following Jesus are radically transformed and are called to live lives of faithful allegiance to him in grateful obedience.
Exiles because the bible tells us that life in this world is broken and it falls far short of our Creator God’s original good design. But at the same time, Christians have a certain hope of a glorious future home. The word “exile” is used to describe the tension felt by Christians who are living in a fallen world that is not our ultimate home.
But what we do until we get there matters. Our prayer is that this podcast will serve to strengthen hearts and minds in service of Jesus while in this fallen world. We hope that our content will help you engage with God’s plan for the world as revealed in the bible, and discern what it looks like to live faithfully now, in hope of the glorious future guaranteed in Christ.
