Interfaith Easter: Robert Cohen - A Jewish Easter (NS18)

February 21, 2015 12:00 - 16 minutes - 11.3 MB

Our interfaith Easter series continues with Robert Cohen. Robert is a Jew, but one who is married to an Anglican Minister. This combined with the fact he lives in one of the least Jewish counties of England puts him very much on the margins. Needless to say, Robert has had a very interesting and unique experience of both Judaism and Christianity.   If you want more from Nomad, check out our website, and follow us on Facebook and twitter If you're looking for other people to share this jo...

Interfaith Easter: Michael Merrifield - An Astronomer's Easter (NS17)

February 20, 2015 12:00 - 14 minutes - 10.3 MB

We took a bit of a chance with this one. We asked a secular scientist if they could find a link between their scientific discipline and the themes of Easter. Prof. Michael Merrifield had a crack at it, and found some sweet connections between his field of astronomy and death and resurrection (and also talked a lot about his real passion, telescopes!).  If you want more from Nomad, check out our website, and follow us on Facebook and twitter If you're looking for other people to share thi...

Interfaith Easter: Mark Vernon - An Agnostic Easter (NS15)

February 18, 2015 08:39 - 10 minutes - 7.01 MB

This year we're bringing you an Easter reflection, with a twist. Rather than asking Christians to reflect on their own festival, we thought it'd be more interesting to ask people from other faiths and none to reflect on the symbolism of Easter. We're easing you in gently with Mark Vernon, a former Anglican priest, who now considers himself an agnostic.   If you want more from Nomad, check out our website, and follow us on Facebook and twitter If you're looking for other people to share...

Dave Tomlinson - How to Be a Bad Christian (N89)

February 11, 2015 09:24 - 1 hour - 48.7 MB

Dave Tomlinson is effortlessly interesting and seems to effortlessly attract interesting people. He mentors the leaders of the now global atheist church, he took the funerals of two of the countries most notorious criminals, and his church is so cool even Bono turns up from time to time. But what we find even more interesting is the fact that Dave went from the emerging church back to the institutional church (why Dave, why?!).  If you want more from Nomad, check out our website, and fol...

January 08, 2015 07:47 - 12 minutes - 8.49 MB

2015 sees the resurrection of Nomad Spirituality! Nomad can be a bit cerebral, so we occasionally want to balance this with something a bit more experiential.

To close out our 12 Days of Christmas we've enlisted the services of 'Consumer Detox' author and founder of the Breathe Network ("Less Stuff, More Life"), Mark Powley.
