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.

Dr Claire Gilbert joins the Religion Reconsidered podcast to discuss the work of the Westminster Abbey Institute and I, Julian. The episode looks at how The Institute aims to bring a level of moral discernment to the UK public sector, and how Claire brought years of work in medical and environmental ethics to the role. Claire then provides a recount of her religious journey and how Julian of Norwich went from being a subject of study to Claire's closest spiritual confidant that led her to write the fictional autobiography, I, Julian. Throughout Claire discusses her ideas of porosity and how we can learn from Julian to engage with the world and each other with a greater level of compassion.
