The Big Picture Magazine

Gerard Manley Hopkins famously wrote that Christ plays in ten thousand places. Public theology is of little use if it does not enter into that play in every area of life. The Big Picture is our magazine in which as a community we give expression to our celebration of life in all its complexity. Read or buy now.

Issue 11: Politics

TRINITY 2024

Politics is a contentious and divisive topic, but it is so integral to every part of public life that we can’t ignore it. With so many significant elections happening in 2024, we invited our community to think together about this topic and we hope that the resultant magazine helps each of us to think better.

You will notice that the articles we have chosen represent a wide range of perspectives that are not all compatible with one another. In this issue more than most, our first responsibility is to navigate difference without division.
