Actual human discourse happens within a number of contexts, not in some sort of unified public forum.

My visit this autumn is an opportunity to continue that rich tradition of visits between Canterbury and Rome.

In sharp contrast to the idea that this stage of life is enviable, we hear high levels of anxiety about getting old, anxieties about health, mobility, access to facilities, simple routine care and attention.

The Church exists to connect people at the level of their hunger for a new world.

If there is one thing I long for above all else, it's that the years to come may see Christianity in this country able again to capture the imagination of our culture.

St Paul, in his second letter to Corinth, spells this out further in the important eighth and ninth chapters, where he urges some of the Christian communities to be generous to others so that they may also have the chance to be generous in return.

To conclude: good journalism is one of the models of good conversation and communication in the wider social context.
