Episode notes

What do Christianity and communism have in common? 

Are Nuns missing out on their lives, or living their best one?

And can attending church once a week provide a more healing alternative to modern wellness culture, not least because you’re forced to turn off your phone for an hour?

Seeking answers to all these questions, Ash Sarkar sits down for a conversation with Lamorna Ash, journalist and author of ‘Don’t Forget We’re Here Forever’.  They explore whether it’s true that the younger generation is searching for meaning in the teachings of Jesus, and what’s behind this unexpected turn towards religion.

They talk about Lamorna’s journey into faith, being queer at Bible Study, and why Christians – like communists – are so good at imagining a better world.
