The Roman governor asked Jesus 'What is truth?’ at his trial. This year’s Lent Lectures will explore Christian perspectives on truth in our own age, as fake news, internet algorithms and technological development rapidly and radically redefine how we understand the world around us. How might people of faith respond and flourish in this new context?
