Common Era: Funeral Rites (S1 Episode 07)
What exactly is coming to an end at this time? And how do we feel about those things ending? Perhaps we need to learn to hold healthy funerals, so that change can be acknowledged and mourned, rather than creating bitterness and division. In this final episode of our season, author and musican David Benjamin Blower and Passionist priest Nicholas Postlethwaite share what they think might be dying in this time, and how we might learn to be good undertakers of that process, alongside being midwives of the new things coming to life.
