Well worth watching this lecture by Chris Shannahan
CHRIS WRITES
For those who couldn't make it to my Gore lecture last night on Life on the Breadline: Theology, Mission and the Scandal of Systemic Poverty here is a video of the lecture, courtesy of Birmingham Cathedral's YouTube channel. The lecture begins just after the 11 minute mark and gives a flavour of the themes we explored during our LESRC funded life on the Breadline research and the questions I explore in my forthcoming book to be published by SCM in November. Have a listen and see what you think.
Delighted to share the publicity for my forthcoming Life on the Breadline book, to be published by SCM Press in November [Just in time for Christmas!] Thanks to everyone at SCM for making this happen and for ensuring the book will be out in paperback, as well as an e-book. Check out the link below and the great cover [thanks to Beth Waters for the artwork].
