SUMMARY:Participating in Democracy
DESCRIPTION:This panel will explore the power of voting, and power beyond voting. How and why might Christians be involved in encouraging voter registration and turn-out? How can churches provide a forum for questioning and challenging parliamentary candidates to help us decide who to vote for? And when the election is over, what next? How can we be active as Christian communities, joining with others, across difference, to build people-power, and make a positive difference in our local communities?\n\nPanel\nJonathan Cox, OBE, Deputy Director of Citizens UK\nRev Tim Norwood, National Ecumenical Officer for the Church of England.\nBishop Mike Royal, General Secretary of Churches Together in England.\nChaired by Professor Elaine Graham of Modern Church\nThis event is held as part of the political theology series, The Power and The Glory? Talking Politics in a General Election Year. Brought to you by Modern Church in collaboration with Church Times.\n
