Dr Ziya Meral: how violence shapes religion - Godpod 194
1 november 2024 |
35 min
Does religion shape violence or does violence shape religion? Is John Lennon right, would all wars cease if religion were to vanish? And, finally, what is the theology of conflict? These are topical, real-time, questions – all of which are explored in this episode of GodPod, with the help of Dr Ziya Meral.
Ziya is a lecturer in International Studies and Deplomacy at SOAS (School of African and Oriental Studies), researcher and advisor specialising in global conflict and the role of religion.

Prof. Andrew Davison: ‘don’t panic’ - Godpod 193
4 oktober 2024 |
31 min
What does the possibility of life on other planets mean for the incarnation? Why is there so much fear and panic around theology? Is it merely a set of rigid rules, or is it something more expansive than that?
These are just some of the questions pondered by our three presenters – Jane Williams, Micheal Lloyd and Graham Tomlin – along with Andrew Davison, Canon and Regius Professor of Divinity at Oxford University.

Dr Lydia Dugdale: The Lost Art of Dying - Godpod 192
6 september 2024 |
37 min
How well do we deal with our own death? What is a ‘technology-dependant death’, and should we want it? Just because we can prolong our lives, should we?
These are just some of the questions pondered by our three presenters – Jane Williams, Micheal Lloyd and Graham Tomlin – along with physician and ethicist, Dr Lydia Dugdale.
Lydia talks the presenters through the historical shifts that have caused us to go from speaking about death openly and honestly, to having a newfound societal imagination that tells us that ‘death won’t come to us’ – and why that’s a problem.
This is one of the most thought-provoking episodes of GodPod yet.

Miroslav Volf: the cost of ambition - Godpod 191
2 augusti 2024 |
31 min
What is the cost of ambition? Does it make us a better version of ourselves, or does it diminish us? What’s a theological response to meritocracy and comparison? What makes a life worth living?
These are just some of the questions pondered by our three presenters – Jane Williams, Micheal Lloyd and Graham Tomlin – along with renowned theologian, Miroslav Volf.
Miroslav is the Henry B. Wright Professor of Theology at Yale Divinity School and the founder and director of the Yale Centre for Faith and Culture. He has written or edited more than 20 books, over 100 scholarly articles, and his work has been featured in the Washington Post, Christianity Today, Christian Century, Sojourners, and several other outlets.

5 juli 2024 |

What did Paul think of Jesus? How did he understand sin? Why does he rub people up the wrong way? Did he have a sense of humour?
These are just some of the questions that old friend of the podcast, Chris Tilling, helps Graham and Jane to ponder in this episode of GodPod.
Chris Tilling is Head of Research and Senior Lecturer in New Testament at St. Mellitus College in London.

Selina Stone: activism, rest and the art of tarrying - Godpod 189
7 juni 2024 |
37 min
What is ‘good’ hope? Does God show up in tangible ways? How can we work for a better world, without burning ourselves out? These are just some of the questions that Dr Selina Stone helps Graham, Jane and Micheal to ponder in this episode of GodPod.
Selina is currently at Durham university but has just been appointed Lecturer in Theology and Ethics at the University of Edinburgh, remarkably making her the first black female theologian to have obtained a lectureship in a British University. She is also the host of ‘Sunday School for Misfits’ podcast and author of ‘Tarry Awhile’, the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Lent book for 2024 – which can, and should, be read all year round.

Rod Green, a former student at Wycliffe Hall in Oxford and now a curate at Christ Church Spitalfields in London, is this week’s special guest.

GodPod: 5 | Resurrection and New Creation
11 april 2007 |
31 min
What was the nature of Jesus’ resurrection, and how does it relate to our own hope for life after death? In fact, is such hope just for our own lives or for the whole of creation? Graham, Mike, and Jane discuss the bodily resurrection of Jesus and its affirmation of the goodness of physical matter, drawing out its implications for the way we live our lives now as well as our hope for the future. They also address the question of whether there is a hierarchy in heaven. Do some people get better mansions than others?

GodPod: 4 | The Trinity and Prayer
10 april 2007 |
34 min
Our three theologians grapple with the doctrine of the Trinity and its relation to the cross. In Mark’s gospel, Jesus cries out on the cross, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” (Mark 15:34). What does this cry of dereliction tell us about the relationship between Father, Son and Holy Spirit? Can God suffer? Can he change? Is God’s action sometimes ‘hidden’, as Pascal suggested? Graham, Mike, and Jane go on to consider the relationship between prayer and time and the nature of human participation in the work of God. Can we pray for things that have already happened? Can we pray for our loved ones who have died?
