Religion is everywhere. Whether we like it or not, it has shaped our past, our present and will continue to shape our future. However, it is a topic that has received scant attention, with the attention that it does receive generally coming in the form of stereotypes or controversy. In this podcast, we are taking a new look at religion to understand what it is, how it influences us and what does it mean to believe. We talk to religious practitioners, spiritual seekers, theologians, philosophers, academics and a whole cast of others to learn about the diverse array of religious/spiritual teachings and ideas in both the present day and historically. If you would like to reach out, please feel free to email me at jack@religionreconsidered.com. I hope you enjoy the podcast.

This episode looks at the religious history and context of the ongoing conflict in Israel/Palestine.
With the recent attacks by Hamas on 7 October, we take a look at why this small piece of land on the Eastern Mediterranean is so religiously significant and why it continues to be so hotly contested.
We look at the origins of the Abrahamic faiths and their associations with the land of Israel/Palestine and how the Zionist movement was imbued with religious significance from the very beginning.
