The Podcast

Theology Unpacked

The Heythrop Institute at the London Jesuit Centre presents a podcast series exploring key themes in Christian theology, narrated by Dr John Moffatt SJ.

This 6-part podcast series offers a fresh perspective on Christian Theology, loosely following the innovative structure of the new Catholic RE curriculum directory for Catholic Schools, Academies and Colleges in England and Wales.

While originally began life with teachers or catechists in mind, we hope this podcast will be of interest to anyone looking for insight into the development of Christian theology and its place in the modern world.
