On this week’s episode of Politics in the Pulpit, Jacky is chatting to Bishop Olivia Graham.
Olivia began her career in teaching and international development, including a period working for Oxfam in Somalia. She was ordained in 1997 serving in Garsington, Princes Risborough, and Burnham in the Diocese of Oxford, before becoming a Parish Development Advisor, and then the Archdeacon. In 2019 Olivia became Bishop of Reading. She is passionate about social justice and the interface the Church has with the wider world. Her priorities include the climate crisis and the challenges facing young people, in particular the scourge of knife crime. She is one of three bishops who lead the national Church of England work on the environment, and she chairs the diocesan environment work. Olivia is married to Keith, and the couple have three grown-up children.
Jacky and Bishop Olivia discuss preaching on the lectionary readings for Sunday 18th February:
Genesis 9: 8-17
1 Peter 3: 18-22
Mark 1: 9-15
Psalm 25: 1-10
