The Bishop of Newcastle - Young Hearts Run Free Podcast - Season 13 Eps 15

What does a Sunday morning long run have in common with a church service? Where would you hear Jasmin Paris and the Barkley marathons mentioned in an inspirational sermon?

In this unique and inspiring episode, we sit down with The Right Reverend Dr Helen-Ann Hartley, the Bishop of Newcastle, to explore the profound and often surprising links between the physical discipline of running and the spiritual practice of faith.

Bishop Helen-Ann shares how lacing up her trainers is not just for physical fitness, but for her mental and spiritual well-being as she leads the diocese. We discuss how the grit and endurance required for a marathon mirrors the perseverance needed in a life of faith and how the simple act of moving through the stunning landscapes of the North East can be a powerful encounter with the divine.

Whether you're a person of faith, a dedicated runner, or simply curious about how our physical and spiritual lives intersect, this conversation offers a refreshing and deeply human perspective on finding meaning in motion.

The Right Reverend Dr Helen-Ann Hartley is a passionate runner, frequently participating in events like the Great North Run and using her running as a time for reflection and prayer.

We talk about a love for running, football, the outdoors and life in general.

Be prepared to be moved in many ways, and you may find yourself lacing up your running shoes and getting out for a run with the Bishop of Newcastle in your ears, and that’s a very good thing.

Enjoy.
