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.

In 1373, a lay woman in the town of Norwich received a number of revelations from Christ Jesus that would change her world.
650 years later, we are still pondering and celebrating the words that Julian of Norwich wrote down on reflection of her revelations.
In this podcast we talk with Veronica Mary Rolf who is a world renown expert on Julian of Norwich having written two bestsellers that consider Julian's life and revelations: Julian's Gospel: Illuminating the Life and Revelations of Julian of Norwich (IVP Academic, 2013) and An Explorer's Guide to Julian of Norwich (Orbis Books, 2018). She has also published her own podcast Life, Love & Light which includes a deep dive into Julian's revelations.
Veronica tells us how she came to know and love Julian, we discuss her life and times, and then we consider the revelations and what they mean for us in the present day.
