Lent Talks: Faith in the Future: 1

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Six eminent speakers explore the direction of faith in the 21st century. They approach spirituality from contrasting perspectives, considering its impact on society and the individual. With commitment to organised religion in decline, there has been a growing interest in personal spirituality. Many see this as their personal hope for the new millennium.

Don Cupitt, Fellow of Emmanuel College, Cambridge looks at the declining interest in religion, the major changes to large institutions and possible new directions for the future.

Other contributors to the series include Danah Zohar, author of SQ - the Ultimate Intelligence; Mary Grey, Honorary Professor of Theology at Lampeter University; Ursula King, Professor of Theology at Bristol University; and Philip Sheldrake, Academic Principal at Sarum College, Salisbury.
