Welsh Anglican bishop, theologian and poet; former Archbishop of Canterbury (2002–2012)
Former archbishop Rowan Williams says there is an inherent scepticism toward religious conviction and calls out Nigel Farage and Tommy Robinson for using Christian imagery to fuel public rhetoric. He questions how public Christian discipleship aligns with hostile, violent rhetoric, and notes that Reform UK has sought theological counsel to bolster its platform.
Penguin Random House’s Image Books will publish Freedom Under Grace: Reflections on the Spiritual Tradition That Formed Me on Sept. 15. The book gathers Robert Prevost’s homilies and addresses from his years as prior general of the Order of Saint Augustine, with notes on its spiritual and social implications for modern believers.
