McGrath discussed Einstein’s rich and rewarding views about the need to hold together God, science, and the quest for goodness in the light of the latest scholarship, and explored how they can help us develop our own ways of thinking about these important issues.
The lecture, which took place at Sheffield Cathedral on Tuesday 15 October 2019, was attended by well over 200 people. This lecture was part of the God and the Good: Thinking Religion and Ethics lecture series.
