FOUR-DIMENSIONAL EUCHARIST - The Point of the Eucharist
The Point of the Eucharist

A point situates perspective; it gives a focus. This lecture asks how the concept of ‘sacrament’ can work in a culture which may choose to strip symbols of their power on a more or less arbitrary basis. It goes on to ponder the story behind Eucharist as one which anticipates such stripping in the divine value it assigns to the weak, the broken and the doomed.

This lecture will take place in person in the University Church on Tuesday 11 May 2021 at 10.00am. It will also be livestreamed on our social media channels.
