My Favourite Mystic 11: James Roberts on Mother Maria Skobtsova
Manage episode 312600137 series 3238810
AJ Langley speaks to James Roberts about the Russian Orthodox nun, social activist, theologian and writer Mother Maria Skobtsova (1891-1945). We talk about her theology and the mysticism of human communion, her mission to feed the poor (and her wheelbarrow full of vegetables), her involvement in the French resistance, our pity for her housemates, and her chain-smoking, philosophy parties.
James Roberts is, at time of recording, finishing up his PhD in modern theology at Oxford University, focusing on the theology of Mother Maria Skobtsova. He received both his Bachelors and Masters degrees in Divinity from the University of St Andrews. In addition to his academic work, he is currently involved in a number of interfaith projects.
