SUMMARY:Public Lecture: Cross\, Flag\, and Nation
DESCRIPTION:Christian nationalism is usually talked about as an American story\, shaped by culture wars\, evangelical politics and the US constitution. But it takes different forms across the UK and Europe\, and it’s here in Australia too. \nJoin visiting academic Dr Nick Spencer on Monday 9th November for a public lecture and discussion on what Christian Nationalism looks like in the UK\, what is the difference between nationalism and patriotism\, how Christians might relate to the nation\, and what our answer says about our theology of nation.  Robyn Whitaker will respond with reflections from the Australian context. \nGET YOUR TICKETS HERE.  \nNote – This event is in-person and online\, but tickets are required. Ticket price includes light refreshments. Sales close one day prior to the lecture. \nDr Nick Spencer is Senior Fellow at Theos thinktank in London. He is the author of a number of books and reports\, most recently\, The Landscapes of Science and Religion (OUP\, 2025)\, Playing God: Science\, Religion and the Future of Humanity (2024)\, and Magisteria: the entangled histories of science and religion (Oneworld\, 2023). His next book\, on Christianity and the Future of Welfare is due out with Cambridge University Press in 2026. Nick is host of the Theos podcast “Reading Our Times”\, and outside Theos he is Honorary Professor at the World Religions and Education Research Unit\, Bishop Grosseteste University; Visiting Research Fellow at St John’s College\, Durham; Visiting Fellow at the Faiths and Civil Society Unit\, Goldsmiths\, University College\, London; and Fellow of the International Society of Science and Religion.\nHe tweets infrequently @theosnick
