OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Book Launch - WHY IS THERE SUFFERING?
Dr Bethany Sollereder, Research Fellow at the Laudato Si’ Research Institute and Research Fellow at the Ian Ramsey Centre, is launching a new book.
This book explores the tangled theology of suffering through a light-hearted, self-guided exploration through multiple choices. The reader is asked to make a theological decision every few pages and is directed to the next appropriate step of their theological journey. From mystery-laden mountain passes, through the paths of providence, or the high moors of atheism, the reader can wander at will through the landscapes of theodicy and redemption.
