OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Trinity, mystery, and the search for understanding: reflections on the place of the intellect in the life of faith
This lecture will explore the relationship of the life of faith to the life of the mind through a reflection on Trinitarian theology. How can the complex technicalities of the doctrine (Persons, substance, processions, relations, missions) possibly relate to the simplicity of faith? How, from the other side, can the appeal to mystery we often hear in connection with the Trinity be understood as anything other than a form of anti-intellectualism?
