The Church Uncovered
Season 3, Nicaea Uncovered ... coming soon!
Season 2 , The Crown Uncovered, Fit For A King
This season of the Podcast will concentrate on what has been learned from the 2023 Coronation. We are interested in what is of value in the rite, and what do contributors consider needs to be held on to? There will be discussion of what not included in 2023, which was integral to the 1953 rite, and what the significance of that might be liturgically and constitutionally. The very particular nature of the rite, as encompassing matters of Church and State under one umbrella, will mean that religious and constitutional questions will be explored in tandem.

The Church Uncovered
9. A Theology of Monarchy in 21st c
Canon Dr Jamie Hawkey is Canon Theologian of Westminster Abbey. On 27 February 2023 he gave a seminal lecture in Westminster Abbey entitled A Theology of Monarchy for the 21st c. Moving beyond consideration of what might take place in the Coronation itself, Jamie’s proposed a framework for considering a Theology of monarchy. His proposal rests on the reality that in the Church we are enjoined to pray for the King, and clergy of the Church of England takes oaths of allegiance to the Sovereign and their successors. Jamie answers questions about his lecture. He reflects on Service, Thanksgiving, The one and the many, and the Environment. He explains the significance of one of the Abbey’s architectural treasures, the Cosmati pavement, upon which will sit the Coronation Chair.
