Advent – A Forgotten Opportunity?
Speaker: Lucy Winkett
There can be few who could help us reflect on Advent - its significance and its opportunities - more effectively than Lucy Winkett.

A Sion College Seminar: Race, Memory and Dialogue – “Culture Wars” and the Church of England
Speaker: Bishop Lusa Nsenga-Ngoy
In an age of “culture wars”, where comment and social media can seem increasingly polarised and confrontational, we can lament our inability to enter into dialogue.
Bishop Lusa believes that leaders in faith have a privileged task of offering healthier patterns of interaction across the world’s divides, and will help us to reflect on the role of Anglican clergy in mediating truth-telling and reconciliation.

Seminar supper at the Oxford & Cambridge Club: Has the Church of England given up on Theology?
Speaker: Michael Lloyd, Principal, Wycliffe Hall
Theological Education in the Church of England is a subject about which almost everyone feels passionately. In recent years a variety of models have been developed in response to the perceived needs of our age and each one is considered by their advocates as the gold standard-the model which will prepare future clergy for the challenges and opportunities of ministry over the next half century.
