2023 Pluscarden Pentecost Lectures

Living the Faith in the World of Today.

The 2023 Pluscarden Pentecost Lectures to be given by Fr Richard Price.
A retired priest in the Archdiocese of Westminster and a former lecturer at Heythrop College.

30th May – 1st June 2023

What new challenges does the modern world present to Christian believers? What are they, and how can they be coped with? This series of talks addresses a broad range of problems – from that of living in an increasingly godless society to that posed by doubts as it how to read Scripture. It speaks of the need to cultivate one’s own spiritual perception of the world, and uses an autobiography by a nineteenth-century Italian to illustrate how to maintain Christian patience and charity in a context where we have to depend on our inner resources rather on a supportive environment, for that is the situation of a Christian today.
