A growing collection of podcasts of AngChap’s X-Nous series is available on Human FM’s website.

The Christian Mind – what is it and why have one anyway? X-Nous sprang out of the 2001 ‘Christian Mind’ conference, jointly sponsored by AngChap, TSCF and Stimulus magazine. It takes the form of occasional seminars, conferences and study groups which aim to pick up where the conference left off – encouraging staff and both undergraduate and graduate students to reflect on their studies in the light of the Gospel.

The X-Nous programme has varied widely over the years though it is our intention to especially focus on feminist and environmental theologies, issues to do with science and religion, and responses to post-modern theologies. Inevitably, all these concerns have socio-political implications.

X-Nous encourages students to think about the Christian faith with the same degree of rigour that they apply to their studies. The X-Nous programme caters to a range of interests and experiences.
