My friend and former colleague Jenny Richardson has written the latest Urban Tract in which she reflects on many decades of experience in Christian adult education in urban settings.
Jenny explores theology which enables learning through reflection on life experiences in a constantly changing urban context, the fresh discovery of the transforming power of God’s Spirit, and the impetus to engage in action to bring about transformation. She advocates a process of learning as key for the transformation of individuals, the church, and the wider world.

Listen to a stimulating podcast interview with Lord David Blunkett, former MP for Sheffield, Brightside, and Hillsborough, Baltimore (Maryland, USA) Councilmember Kristerfer Burnett, and Rev. Zaidie Orr minister for seven years in the Sheffield Central United Reformed Church. Rob Hoch, with the Urban Theology Union of Sheffield, moderates a conversation that ranges how we might face the serious questions of our political life with joy, how churches are transforming from inward looking institutions to outward facing communities that contribute to the flourishing of society, and the challenges and opportunities of our human diversity.
