What Can Religion Teach Us About Living in Apocalyptic Times? with Elizabeth Oldfield
Tuesday November 12th
Doors & drinks 6.30pm; Talk starts 7pm
Elizabeth Oldfield thinks a lot about the end of the world. Perhaps too much. The question that preoccupies her is “if it is the end of the world (or at least the end of the world as we have known it) what kind of people are needed? And how, exactly, do we become those people, given that panic, tribalism and self-protection come more easily?
In this talk, Elizabeth, author of "Fully Alive: Tending to the Soul in Turbulent Times" and host of The Sacred podcast, will argue that most ancient wisdom paths - particularly Christianity - have thought a lot about these questions, and offer some long forgotten medicine for the ills of our age.
Followed by one-pot vegan supper and discussion.
