At the Coalface is a series of conversations hosted by Philippe Rose. Philippe and his guests share stories about their life beyond the headlines of international affairs. They look for lessons learned about making an impact in the world as practitioners in diplomacy, international organisations, NGOs, journalism and the private sector. Many of Philippe's guests are connected by their common experience of taking time away from work to attend Fletcher School's Global Master of Arts Programme.

Heroes are often underrated. Our world honors and extols people with great intelligence, physical abilities, or outward beauty, while the meek, the humble, and the lowly are often passed by. But “the Lord sees not as man sees.” (1 Samuel 16:7, ESV) In this podcast, we document the stories of Christian heroes—people who may not have been highly esteemed by the world, but who were truly great in God's sight.
