A Revolution of Love and Tenderness

A conversation with Dr Medi Volpe Assistant Professor of Theology and Ethics in the Department of Theology and Religion at Durham University.
The Marian Lecture takes up the theme of generating a revolution of love and tenderness as we seek to discover our personal vocation and the call to create. Dr Medi will draw on her deep understanding of the Christian tradition, motherhood, spirituality and the human person to explore what it means to bring Christ life into the world.
