Each term, the Centre hosts a series of public lectures featuring distinguished speakers from academia, church and faith communities, politics and public life, and the arts, who address significant issues in the intersection of faith and culture.
Centre lectures usually take place on Mondays at 5pm, followed by discussion until around 6:25pm. They are free of charge and open to members of the University and the general public and are currently being offered remotely (see Zoom links).
