We are particularly keen to expand the conversation with perspectives from world Christianity; or of public/ political theologies as wielded by minority communities in different parts of the world.

Churches still have an "important role" to play at @scotparl to argue for the common good. Lord Wallace, a former Moderator of the General Assembly, made the remark at an event to celebrate the 25th anniversary of devolution. #devolution #Edinburgh churchofscotland.org.uk/news…

Interesting conference on faith in the public square following devolution@25 New College, University of Edinburgh, especially Session 2, so far, with Prof Mona Siddiqui.

It was a pleasure to be on this panel, discussing religious engagement w/ Scottish Parliament. Our research shows how migrants buck the trend of the wider Scottish population, the majority being Christian, and how that reshapes future conversations.

Had fun reflecting & putting together this report for @CTPIEdinburgh. As a critical intervention, it draws attention to the need for thoughtful 'translations' & continued dialogue between communities across the range of geographical, cultural, and socio-economic spectrum.
Thrilled to publish an event report on 'Animals & Religion' by @rathiulung. Featuring summaries of talks by Bethany Sollereder, @MillarSuzanna & David Grumett, plus thoughtful critiques.
Stay tuned for further discussions!
