David Armstrong continues the series ‘Resident Aliens’ looking at the church as a community of the ancient and how the counter-intuitive way of Jesus hides our future inside our history. The call for the church then is to rediscover those ancient paths and walk in them, learning particularly from our own Celtic spiritual history in Ireland. (This is the first part of a two part talk). This series ‘Resident Aliens’ explores the idea of the church living in a strange age. Over the six talks we looked at the communal identity of the church, why it matters and what it's for. Note: Unfortunately the recording of the excellent talk given by Stephanie Wilson on 3 June 2018 entitled "Resident Aliens: Part 4 - A Community of Differents" is not available due to recording difficulties. Apologies.
