In this talk Helen Stanton will draw upon Christian virtue ethics and the apophatic Christian Tradition to encourage the practice of joy and hope in a world that feels on a desperate and destructive trajectory. Her focus will be on how God’s work in us can create a place of joy and freedom, even while our eyes are open to the sin and suffering of the world; a joy that transforms.
Helen Stanton has worked in theological education, and the training of clergy, for most of her working life. Currently she is Warden of Holland House, an ecumenical retreat house in Worcestershire.
