The Rev’d Andrew Hurst – What is Truth?

Sunday Evensong Sermon Series

WHAT IS TRUTH?

In a world struggling to see clearly through conspiracy and fake news, seeking truth is more urgent than ever. In this sermon series, we will use the question posed to Jesus by Pontius Pilate to explore what truth really is, how we might find it, and what it means for how we live.
