Two organizers of the radical performance activism group Earth Church, William Talen and Savitri D, gave a sermon and answered a series of questions posed by Professor Leigh Eric Schmidt in the second installment in the “Reverent Irreverence” series.

Bank holiday goodness for you to enjoy.
Woohoo - another bank holiday weekend on the horizon!
