Description

On the podcast this week, a panel of experts discuss the question: Does the future have a Church?

In an increasingly unstable and dark world, will people return to or at least reconsider belief, or are we continuing to hear the ‘melancholy, long, withdrawing roar’ of faith?

The discussion was recorded in London on 26 November at the 2024 Theos Annual Lecture.

The panelists were:

Daisy Scalchi, Head of Religion and Ethics, BBC Television
Justin Brierley, broadcaster, author, and speaker
Madeleine Davies, senior writer for the Church Times
Bishop Mike Royal, General Secretary of Churches Together in England
Mary Harrington, writer and author of Feminism Against Progress

The discussion was chaired by Nick Spencer, Senior Fellow at Theos. The director of Theos, Chine McDonald, introduced and closed the event.
