What is the cost of ambition? Does it make us a better version of ourselves, or does it diminish us? What’s a theological response to meritocracy and comparison? What makes a life worth living? These are just some of the questions pondered by our three presenters – Jane Williams, Michael Lloyd and Graham Tomlin – along with renowned theologian, Miroslav Volf.

Miroslav is the Henry B. Wright Professor of Theology at Yale Divinity School and the founder and director of the Yale Centre for Faith and Culture. He has written or edited more than 20 books, over 100 scholarly articles, and his work has been featured in the Washington Post, Christianity Today, Christian Century, Sojourners, and several other outlets.

Lisa Fields is the founder of The Jude 3 Project - an organisation helping the Christian community know what they believe and why they believe it with a strong emphasis in equipping those of African descent in the United States and abroad.

Lisa founded the organisation after encountering significant intellectual challenges to her own faith. Belle and Justin find out what answers she discovered, the unique challenges that people of colour face when it comes to Christian faith, and how we can re-enchant the voice of black Christians in the world of theology and apologetics.
