In today’s episode we speak to Sarah Strand and Emma Parker about the theology behind faith at home. Rev Sarah Strand is Dean of Anglican Formation at Cranmer Hall, Durham, having previously worked as Tutor and Lecturer in Theological Reflection and, before that, served in parishes on Teesside. She is completing a PhD in Divinity at the University of Aberdeen, exploring how young children encounter God through reading Scripture in their family context. Revd Canon Dr Emma L. Parker is the Priest in Charge of St Gabriel's Church, Sunderland. She is the former Deputy Warden at Cranmer Hall, Durham and an author and contributor. She lives in Sunderland with her husband, daughter and red setter and loves early morning runs and dog walks, getting lost in a good book and singing.
