Jesus the Game Changer: Hosted by Karl Faase

In the lush garden of his Irish home, Paul Kingsnorth—acclaimed writer and former environmental activist—shares with Karl Faase his remarkable spiritual journey. From dabbling in Buddhism and Wicca to reluctantly embracing the truth of Christianity, Paul’s story is one of searching, questioning, and ultimately encountering Jesus in a deeply personal way.

At the beautiful Scots College near Bondi Beach, Karl Faase sat down with Hugh Chilton, a historian, teacher and researcher into how Australia's identity as a Christian nation changed during the 1960's, 70's and 80's. Hugh speaks about the impact of Billy Graham's 1959 crusade, which packed out stadiums in both Melbourne and Sydney, as well as the culture shift that occurred in the next few decades.

John Harris' incredible depth of knowledge into the history of Australia, both Indigenous and European settlement is shown in his many books on the subject, especially his powerful book titled One Blood. Karl Faase sat down with him in the chapel of St Mark's Theological College in Canberra to discuss his parents work and legacy as Bible translators in the Northern Territory; his own research into the relationship between the Indigenous people and the church in Australia; and the many stories of faithful people who shared the Gospel with others. While often a hard story to hear, our history needs to be remembered and learned from, and John's passionate work in this area is so valuable.

As the first Indigenous person to gain a PhD from Sydney University, Dr Anne Pattel-Gray's experience of racism from both outside and inside the church ignited a flame that drove her to pursue higher education, with the aim of giving her people the words to use in their campaign for justice. Anne's firm faith in God keeps her hopeful for reconciliation and for an easier path for future generations of Indigenous people. Karl and Anne discuss the inspiration of her mother, her Christian faith and the faith that runs very deep in the First Nations people.

After taking the ute across Bass Strait on the Spirit of Tasmania, Karl interviewed Bernadette Black in Hobart. Bernadette's experience of having a baby at 16 years old, and not finding the national organisational support she was looking for, led her to starting her own organisation meeting the needs of expecting and parenting teens. Brave Foundation is now nation-wide, and is paving a way for other nations to follow in this important work. As a voice and advocate for these young people, Bernadette is living out her Christian faith, making a difference to so many.
