Special episode - Written in Blood with Jenny Sinclair

Monday, November 25, 2024 • Duration 44:33

In this time of seismic change and instability, many of us are finding the scale of injustice overwhelming. It can be inspiring to look to the Christian martyrs for justice whose lives were “written in blood” – extraordinary people whose stories of truth, justice and peace, in the face of indifference and opposition, offered witness to a hope-filled future of solidarity and fraternity. But what are the causes of injustice in our time, and what does it mean to live a life written in blood today?

This was the theme set for Jenny Sinclair for the 2023 Justice and Peace Europe General Assembly annual lecture. The lecture was given on 12 November 2023 in the oratory of St John’s co-Cathedral, Valletta, Malta, before the masterpiece the Beheading of St John the Baptist by Caravaggio.

The 2024 Series EP#02 Grace, Truth and the Common Good the Future of Christian Social Action - With Jon Kuhrt

Friday, July 19, 2024 • Duration 51:38

Christian social action has grown significantly in the UK over the last two decades. But too often well-intentioned charitable initiatives are disconnected from justice, can deepen dependency and can drift in a secular direction. In a time of profound social and political change and increasing inequality, Jon Kuhrt opens up an honest conversation about impact, power and authentic Christian witness.

Drawing on the wisdom of the Christian traditions, including Catholic social thought and the theology of Lesslie Newbigin, Jon also reflects on the legacy of Frank Field, in whose honour this talk was given. MP for Birkenhead for forty years, Frank was a committed Christian who put his faith into practice, and was unequalled in his dedication to improving the lives of people trapped in poverty.

Jon Kuhrt is Chief Executive of Hope into Action and host of the Grace and Truth Blog. Formerly Jon was the Rough Sleeping Adviser to the UK Government Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, and before that, CEO of West London Mission, and Director of Community Mission for Livability. He lives with his family in South London, and loves cricket.

This lecture was held on 15 July 2024 and is part of our 2024 series exploring how Catholic Social Thought helps us stay human and build the common good in these uncertain times. Introduced by Jenny Sinclair, this event was held in partnership with CCLA.
