Faith, Made Public.

A public theologian revisits the case of Jason Arday, the Cambridge professor who died following public plagiarism and academic misconduct allegations; and whose accuser has since been suspended from his university post. How did genuine concerns over scholarship become entangled with race politics? Are we hiding behind vulnerabilities and avoiding honest conversations? Dr Craig Heilmann questions whether media and public scrutiny contributed to Prof. Arday's fragile mental state, and whether his critics are now being similarly targeted in turn.

Andrew Urquhart explores how the Church can influence contemporary culture for good. Rev Dr Stuart Lange addresses the politics of accusation and calls for humility in political discourse, Dr Craig Heilmann reflects on the death of Christendom as an opportunity to return to Jesus' model of transformation, and media chaplain Frank Ritchie discusses the Honour the Promise campaign holding institutions accountable to the Abuse in Care Royal Commission recommendations.

Is immigration reshaping New Zealand society, and how should the Church respond? Andrew Urquhart speaks with Dr Craig Heilmann about the violent protests fuelling anti-immigration sentiment in Europe, media chaplain Frank Ritchie on whether immigration is truly changing the fabric of Kiwi society, and Rev. Dr Stuart Lange on the evangelism opportunity right on our doorstep. From the first Maori arrivals to today's newest New Zealanders, this is a timely conversation about mission, community, and what it means to be the Church in a multicultural Aotearoa.
