At its foundation, the coronation of King Charles III will be an act of Christian worship. What makes it so? What religious meanings will be embedded in all of the pageantry and music? And what does a coronation tell us about the relationship between Church and State in Great Britain? In this episode of Church Potluck, we will ask these questions and more with Rev. Dr. (and Canadian) Jonathan Parker (biblical studies) and Dr. Paul Neal (music, choral activities).
