Well, as Solomon said, "there is a time for everything under the sun, a time to be born and a time to die" ... and this includes podcasts too!
After half a decade of plugging the gaps between the Church and the culture, Andy and Aaron are finally calling time on Pod of the Gaps. In this final swansong episode they reflect upon some of the key themes of the podcast over the last five years, the way public opinion has shifted over this time, the cultural impact of podcasts in general, and some of the key trajectories for the Church's relationship to the culture going forward.
Thankyou to all our listeners over the years. We have appreciated all your engagement and feedback, and we're glad you've found our discussions stimulating and encouraging.
Feel free to keep following Aaron and Andy on their Substacks for more of their content (see links below). In the meantime, so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye!

Episode 102 - Six Challenges for the Church in 2026
What are the crucial issues facing the Church right now? What should pastors and Christian leaders be looking out for in the months ahead? How should we diagnose the cultural moment and respond to it with both wisdom and faith?
Pod of the Gaps returns with our (slightly delayed!) episode looking ahead "prophetically" at the issues in the coming year. As always, Aaron and Andy will each live-reveal their three respective challenges for the Church, and discuss each together.
If you're interested and/or perplexed about how churches should respond to the challenges at its gates, you won't want to miss this one!
