Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby: Suspicious of Joy

Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby: Suspicious of Joy

In this special episode, Kate visited the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, at Lambeth Palace in London.

In this funny and poignant conversation, the Archbishop and Kate discuss:

  • Why sometimes we feel God’s love (or don’t)
  • How to pray when you have run out of words (he gives us permission to be impolite with God)
  • Why he is suspicious of joy, and why they both use the theology of Winnie the Pooh
  • How people in emotionally expensive professions can feel permission to do small acts of love (and angry when it’s not enough)
