Religion is everywhere. Whether we like it or not, it has shaped our past, our present and will continue to shape our future. However, it is a topic that has received scant attention, with the attention that it does receive generally coming in the form of stereotypes or controversy. In this podcast, we are taking a new look at religion to understand what it is, how it influences us and what does it mean to believe. We talk to religious practitioners, spiritual seekers, theologians, philosophers, academics and a whole cast of others to learn about the diverse array of religious/spiritual teachings and ideas in both the present day and historically. If you would like to reach out, please feel free to email me at jack@religionreconsidered.com. I hope you enjoy the podcast.

Ely Cathedral is located in England's East Anglia and began as an abbey in the 7th Century before the Cathedral was built in the 11th Century. Throughout its history, Ely Cathedral has seen turmoil and destruction but has always remained a site of spiritual devotion and today is home to a welcoming and vibrant community.
My guide for the podcast was Rebecca Mundy and in the episode we spoke about the story of Etheldreda, the founder and first abbess of Ely, the magnificent structure of the Cathedral including its famous Lantern, the destruction that occurred in the Cathedral during the English Reformation, and how the modern-day community operates with its commitment to worship and public outreach.
