@paulargooder @ReverendAlly. Very excited to get my copy of this book. Wondering if there will be events to celebrate it with author and artist. I hope so, the last book was heavily used at my church.

Please do share the post below widely.
I'm truly delighted to see this position advertised: a statutory professorship (which is to say, the most senior sort @UniofOxford) in Eastern Orthodox Christianity, in @OU_TheoReligion, with membership of Merton College. Enormous thanks to Hon Michael Huffington for endowing it.

I'm worried too, that as a society we're not great at valuing life other than by productivity. That we can't really know how free our choices about our end of life are because of this (and so many other factors) - this not just a practical issue but a cultural & existential one.
