Ron Hedgcock is an experienced lecturer with a solid background knowledge of Christianity and Art.

This course is in the form of a series of sessions each devoted to a major theme in Christian doctrine or tradition.
Hundreds of art works digitally projected are shown in the series with explanatory hand out papers.
The material is by turns academic, entertaining and enlightening; and no religious motivation lies behind the discussions.
