Reflecting on death and mortality may not sound like an obvious starting point to inspire social justice. Yet, Simon Cuff suggests that mortality and limitation can, in fact, serve as the grounds for creativity for those seeking justice. Here Simon Cuff explores a theology of mortality and considers how a recognition of ultimate human limitation can fuel those working for justice that enables the flourishing of all.
Fr Simon Cuff is Rector of St Mary-le-Bow on Cheapside, Vice-Chair of the Just Money movement and Trustee of Migrants Organise. He is the author or editor of a number of books exploring a variety of theological themes, most recently Waiting on the Lord: Reflections For A Priestly Life for those exploring and preparing for vocations to priesthood.
About us:
St Paul’s is a Cathedral – a vibrant working church, a national treasure, a London icon. A sacred space to connect with God. A seat of Christian worship. The Church of the Diocese of London for over 1,400 years.
Designed by Sir Christopher Wren in the late 17th century, it’s a place where architecture lifts your eyes and your spirit. Where liturgy meets learning. Where discovery meets debate. And where centuries of heritage are held in the hands of today’s creators and craftspeople.
It’s a home for both soaring music and silent prayer. For the deep thunder of the organ, the hush of footsteps on stone, the harmony of voices rising beneath our dome. Where gold leaf meets marble. Where light and flame flicker and colours mesmerise. Where sound lingers.
Step inside, and you’ll see, hear, feel the extraordinary – and become part of it.
