Episode 49 - The Church and Spatial Justice -(with Caroline Powell)
Land in South Africa today remains a critical issue for which people have fought for, been moved from, legislated for, and even gone to prison for. Land is intricately tied up to not only economic stability but also identity and belonging. What is significant is just how much of that land the church owns - more than 180 000 hectares. How could churches begin to use this land to start the healing process in this country and to start bridging the divides across a vastly unequal society?
In this episode, Alphonso and John sit down with Caroline Powell and discuss the role which churches, historically have played and continue to play in perpetuating spatial injustice. Why we seem to be so hesitant to get involved in changing the spatial inequalities we experience And what it could look like to move forward as communities of greater justice, hope, and inclusion.

Episode 48 - Stories Of Hope: Hope Africa Collective (with Brandon Weber)
Continuing our intermittent Stories of Hope series, Alphonso and John sat down with Brandon Weber from Hope Africa Collective to talk about their work in youth development and community transformation.
Listen in as they discuss the holistic, multidimensional nature of poverty; the role which our history and our context play in the narratives we believe about ourselves and each other, and how these narratives continue to entrench and perpetuate poverty. The effects of perpetual stress disorder on the self-perception of value among young people. The role of the church in extending the rule and the reign of God to restore all that has been distorted in society. What would it mean to create a pipeline of value with churches and NGOs working together to serve the marginalised and change the structures of inequality in our country?
