The Church and the Virus

In his Peter Toon Memorial Lecture (19 May 2021), The Church and the Virus, given at Pusey House in Oxford, The Archdeacon of Hastings, The Venerable Dr Edward Dowler, invites us to reconsider five themes in the light of the Corona virus:

(1) The importance of the face

(2) The song of the church

(3) The moral and theological virtues providing a renewed Christian psychology which drives away fear and excessive risk aversion 

(4) The physical proximity of Christians and the sacramental life of the church 

(5) The Christian hope of eternal life beyond death
