Sunday Sermons

People want to hear spiritual ideas, demanding ideas, ideas that make a difference. Bring back the sermon!

Mark Vernon, The Guardian

 

In the old days most of us looked to religion for direction on how to live. Now we flick through the Sunday papers or surf the net, finding little by way of good counsel.

At The School of Life we’re curious about what values we should live by today. So we’ve asked maverick cultural figures to tell us what they see as the virtues to cling to and the vices to be wary of.

From kindness and humility, to envy and adultery, they deliver persuasive polemics with peculiar passion. Expect hellfire preaching, an alternative parish newsletter, hymns, sticky buns, conversations with fellow 'parishioners' and the possible appearance of the Devil himself.
