White Church Architecture
Church History & Spiritual Growth
“Connecting Religious treasures & Prayer”
Lunchtime Talks led by Dr Mark Kirby, Lincoln College, Oxford University
March 19 @ 1:00 pm – 1:40 pm
Dr Mark Kirby‘s research interests focus on the interplay between church architecture,
church history, liturgy, and furnishings in the seventeenth century – his understanding
on how religious belief was expressed in artistic and architectural terms by patrons
and their architects, and how and why they built and furnished churches and other
places of worship in the particular ways they did.
