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
Scriptural Reasoning (SR) is a practice of inter-faith reading where people of all faiths
gather and reflect on short passages from their scriptures together. There is sometimes overlap
between texts where different faiths share their Scriptures. It is a worldwide movement www.
scripturalreasoning.org and this is the major meeting in Oxford. We spend time with texts from Jewish, Christian, and Muslim traditions, and discuss ancient, medieval, and modern interpretations of Scripture,
modern day practices which reflect these texts, and what they mean personally for individuals
and faith communities. Free, simple kosher snacks may be provided.
