    Theology 0(0) 1–9 ! The Author(s) 2015 Reprints and permissions: Christian public ethics sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav tjx.sagepub.com Robin Gill This special online issue of Theology focuses upon Christian public ethics or, more specifically, upon those forms of Christian ethics that have contributed sig- nificantly to public debate. Throughout the 95 years of the journal’s history, there has been discussion about public ethics (even if it has not always been named as such). However, Christian public ethics had a particular flourishing between 1965 and 1975, when Professor Gordon Dunstan (1918–2004) was editor. When I became editor of Theology in January 2014, I acknowledged at once my personal debt to Gordon. He encouraged and published my very first article when I was still a postgraduate in 1967, and several more articles beyond that. And, speaking personally, his example of deep engagement in medical ethics was inspirational. When he died, The Telegraph noted the following among his many achievements: He was president of the Tavistock Institute of Medical Psychology and vice-president of the London Medical Group and of the Institute of Medical Ethics. During the 1960s he was a member of a Department of Health Advisory Group on Transplant Policy, and from 1989 to 1993 he served on a Department of Health committee on the Ethics of Gene Therapy. From 1990 onwards he was a member of the Unrelated Live Transplant Regulatory Authority and from 1989 to 1993 he served on the Nuffield Council on Bioethics. (19 January 2004) The two most substantial ethical contributions that I have discovered in searching through back issues of Theology were both published when he was editor and were doubtless directly encouraged by him.

  • Less Hegel, More History! Christian Ethics & Political Realities by Nigel Biggar
    FEATURE LESS HEGEL, MORE HISTORY! CHRISTIAN ETHICS & POLITICAL REALITIES BY NIGEL BIGGAR he good news is that the moral thinking of an educated Protestant T Christian in 2015 is likely to be far more theologically and biblically literate than it was a quarter of a century ago. In the 1960s and ‘70s, at least here in the United Kingdom, Christian ethics was often represented by philosophers who championed metaphysics against fashionable logical positivism—for example, Peter Baelz and Basil Mitchell. Or else it found expression in the thought of Anglican churchmen like Gordon Dunstan, who used to begin his undergraduate courses in moral theology with Aristotle and Aquinas, and who is famously reported to have commented on one student’s essay, “Best not to begin with the Bible”! 1 10 Through the Night With the Light from Above: Transcendent wisdom symbolized by the light of Providence While this more philosophical approach today what has recently been asserted to the discipline did have its merits—as I of her current conception of her politi- shall make clear shortly—its lack of immer- cal role: that she has yet to take serious- sion in biblical and theological traditions ly the intellectual task of developing a weakened its capacity to achieve critical dis- fundamentally theological understand- ing of it.3 tance from prevailing intellectual currents.

    St Martin-in-the-Fields with St Stephen Walbrook Organ Scholarship 2021-22 St Martin-in-the-Fields is seeking to appoint an Organ Scholar for the academic year 2021-22. The Organ Scholar will work with the Director of Music and Choral Conducting Fellow, accompanying, and occasionally directing, our various choral ensembles at St Martin-in-the-Fields and at our partner church St Stephen Walbrook. The schedule will include Wednesday afternoon services at St Martin-in-the-Fields and Thursday lunchtimes at St Stephen Walbrook with the Choral Scholars, and Thursday evening commitments with St Martin’s Chorus. St Martin-in-the-Fields St Martin-in-the-Fields is a hospitable, vibrant and forward- thinking church, which has a long history of opening its doors to people from all walks of life and from all faiths or no faith at all. The first religious broadcast was made from St Martin’s and we regularly broadcast church services as well as the annual BBC Radio 4 St Martin-in-the-Fields Christmas Appeal. Pioneering work with homeless people started in the First World War and continues today with the Connection at St Martin’s. Amnesty International was conceived at St Martin’s and Shelter and the Big Issue were launched on the church steps. Music has always played a central part in the life of St Martin-in- the-Fields. The Academy of St Martin in the Fields was founded here in 1958 by Sir Neville Marriner and the then Master of Music, John Churchill. The breadth of musical activity at St Martin’s is astonishing.

  • As a Mother Tenderly
    AS A MOTHER TENDERLY Exploring parish ministry through the metaphor and analogy of mothering REVEREND EMMA PERCY MA Cantab BA Dunelm Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2012 As a mother tenderly: using mothering as a metaphor and analogy for parish ministry. The thesis sets out to use maternal imagery as a way of articulating the practice of parish ministry in the Church of England. The aim is to find a language which can affirm and encourage many aspects of good practice that are in danger of being over looked because they are neither well articulated nor valued. The ministry of a parish priest is a relational activity: characterised by care. It is because the priest has a responsibility to care for those entrusted to her that she engages in priestly activity. In doing so she is sharing in the collective ministry of the church in which she has a pivotal and public role. The church is to be a community in which people grow up in Christ and come to maturity of faith. In order to explore the relational activity of a parish priest the imagery of mothering is used. The changing place of women in society has made it more difficult to use gendered images and thus it is necessary to discuss whether mothering is an essentially female activity. After acknowledging the complexity of the gendered language and the reality that most women arrive at mothering through a specifically female bodily experience, the thesis goes on to state that the practice of mothering is not instinctual but learnt.
