Oxford’s Rev. Dr. Andrew Teal — Part 1: Building bridges of interfaith friendship with Elder Matthew S. Holland of the Seventy; with Sheri Dew as guest host

During the summer of 2017, Elder Matthew S. Holland — then president of Utah Valley University and now a General Authority Seventy, knocked on a door with a sign that read, “chaplain,” at Oxford University. Behind the door was Reverend Dr. Andrew Teal, an Anglican priest and theologian specializing in Christian church history at Oxford’s Pembroke College. Unbeknownst to either of them, that first meeting would bloom into a friendship beyond themselves and their faith. On this episode of the Church News podcast, the first in a two-part series, Elder Holland and Dr. Rev. Teal are joined by guest host Sheri Dew to discuss interfaith friendship and community building. Join us next week: Oxford’s Rev. Dr. Andrew Teal — Part 2: The repercussions of interfaith friendships with David W. Checketts and Deborah L. Checketts, London England Mission leaders.
