About This Event

Dave Tomlinson (author of “How to be a Bad Christian” and “The Post-Evangelical” and Radio 2 contributor to ‘Pause for Thought’) will speak about his latest book as part of a PCN Britain sponsored speaking tour.

Dave’s latest book is the latest of his writings addressing the needs of those who he celebrates as bad Christians. This collection of prayers were mainly written for his weekly Holy Shed podcast but also reflect his 19 years as a vicar in a north London parish.

In Dave’s view, ‘quite simply prayer is the language of the soul, the unique bubbling up, or longing of the deepest self, uttered through whatever language, gesture, or practice we find helpful. It isn’t even necessary to believe in God in order to pray: belief is about words, concepts and ideas that may or may not appear plausible, but prayer isn’t bothered with beliefs or creeds, it’s much more instinctive, visceral, physical even.’

Why not come along and meet Dave and hear what he has to say in his own inimitable, thought-provoking and entertaining way.

There will be a book stall (cash only please) with Dave’s books available for purchase.
