Another art and seeing session before we go into a session on AI and no it's not an AI image but it is a strictly collated image from carefully collected studies... it is produced by algorithm of a type and talks of metrics and how concensus and individuality are not good bedfellows. #CTEForum2025

Fr Andrea's giving a great feedback on BP Paulina's tlak and sharing about the reconciliation work in relation to the filioque... and love the emphasis on not over theologising (a bit like the reminder not to overthink and get in our own ways I think!) #CTEForum2025

fabulous as Elaine Green talks to us of the @quaker.org.uk practice and how synodality (although not a phrase used) is very much a part of their practice. Just excellent to hear these wonderful speakers from Cardinal Vincent, Archbishop Nikitas and now Elaine Green share on synodality #CTEForum2025
