It doesn’t get better than this for me. A great theologian – N T Wright – putting theology to music. Here, he sings ‘Genesis’ – words that he and Francis Collins, of the Human Genome Project put to the Beatles’ ‘Yesterday’.

Fantastic, isn’t it? And all the more if you’ve read Wright and can catch some of the nuances.

Nice song. I’d like to read some of his work too.

Do, Pam, do. He expresses himself well in print. Be aware there is a distinction in his books: the ‘popular’ ones are authored by ‘Tom Wright’ and the more scholarly ones by ‘N T Wright’. A title like ‘Simply Jesus’ from last year might be no bad place to start. He will take you beyond the usual stereotypes of Jesus from different Christian traditions, but he does so from a vantage point that tries to encompass the entire sweep of the biblical narrative.
