Food for Thought
Professor Tim Gorringe will lead a workshop on ‘Food for Thought’: towards a Christian view of the ethics, economics and politics of food, covering areas such as fair trade, the organic movement, the importance of agriculture and the need for local economies.
Tim will be delivering three addresses during the day, with plenty of time in between for questions and exploration together in groups. He will also be preaching at our Harvest Festival celebration the following day (Sunday 21 September).
