Richard Johnson Lecture Podcast

The Richard Johnson lecture, named in honour of Australia's first chaplain Richard Johnson, is an annual public event that seeks to highlight Christianity's relevance to society and to positively contribute to public discourse on key aspects of civil life. Here is the podcast of all the lectures from 2014 to today.

All episodes
We have quite a bank of lecture recordings since the first one was delivered back in 2014 so we decided to make them easily accessible to you all through this new podcast. We hope you enjoy it.
