Episode Episode 211 - Ukraine, Lawsuits & Faith in Politics: Chantelle Baker, Part 3
Click here to listen to part 1 or here to listen to part 2. In Part 3 of our conversation with Chantelle Baker, we explore some of the most challenging experiences she's faced over recent years.
Chantelle reflects on her time reporting from Ukraine, the backlash that followed, and why she believes it changed her perspective on war and human suffering. She also shares why she chose to take legal action against the New Zealand Herald and Stuff, what motivated that decision, and what she hopes it will achieve.
The conversation finishes by looking at the intersection of faith and politics. What role should Christians play in public life? How should believers approach elections, truth, and standing up for their convictions? And what practical action can Christians take in their own communities?
Whether or not you agree with everything discussed, we hope this conversation encourages thoughtful reflection, gracious dialogue, and a deeper desire to follow Christ faithfully in every area of life.
