Ethics Reading Group
Our online Ethics Reading Group is led by our Tutor in Christian Ethics, Matthew Mason. The group discusses classic and contemporary ethics texts, some of which are immediately accessible, some of which are more challenging.
The group is open to anyone interested in Christian ethics, but is especially intended to help pastors think about important ethical questions and to dig deeper into what they are reading. Together, we learn from the writings of wise guides about how to think about and teach important ethical topics in ways that help and enrich our congregations.
Topics have included:
Freedom from Reality, D. C. Schindler, (September to December 2025) – Link to book a place
Assisted suicide (January to June 2025)
Reading the Decalogue (2024)
Patristic Ethics to Help Ministry Today (2024)
Living Wisely in a Society Dominated by Technology (2023)
Marriage and Sexual Ethics (2023)
Law, Virtue and Justice (2022)

London Reading Group
Our reading group is open to any serious reader of Christian literature.
We meet several times a year to discuss classic and contemporary theological works. Our meetings are held at London Seminary in Finchley, from 11am to 3pm. Please bring a packed lunch with you.
Discussions for the book that we are reading are sent out by email about two weeks before the group meets. The questions are prepared by a volunteer from the group, who then leads the discussion.
