Singing and dancing in the cruelest month. The reflection on theology and poetry in the time of Covid

Dr. Christopher Southgate is a biochemist turned influential theologian…who just happens to be a well published poet.  (Read this powerful one… when it is safe to cry). Southgate is a Professor at Exeter University in the UK and part of the ‘God and the Book of Nature’ project I am working on. Since recording this interview I have had the chance to spend time with him and am enthusiastic to introduce him to many of you. In this conversation we discuss…    The changing shape of the religion and science conversation how has the scientific study of religion itself shaped a scientifically engaged theology from a particular tradition the problem of evil and suffering in nature the free will defense in the face of natural evil the “lazy default in Christian thinking” Irenaeus wasn’t Irenaean? the Christian need to recover immanence what is divine glory? the Biblical protest of God and the need for its presence in worship “humankind cannot bear much of reality” theologizing with Charles Sanders Peirce’s semiotics trauma and the community of faith    Books from Dr. Southgate you should check out.
