ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Humans cannot help but understand ourselves and our story through ritual. For Christians, as also for many irreligious people in the west today, this happens nowhere more powerfully than through the liturgy of the Church.
Join Sam Fornecker for a chat with Cosima Clara Gillhammer of Oxford University's Lady Margaret Hall. Drawing on insights from her new book, Light on Darkness: The Untold Story of the Liturgy, this conversation explores how Christian liturgy — in many senses the soil of the Western imagination — invites us to renew our participation in the story of Christ.

We apologize for the sheer profusion of Tolkien allusions in this episode. Merry Christmas, and "Aiya Eärendil Elenion Ancalima! "
