What is so remarkable about the Codex Amiatinus, a complete copy of the Bible made by the monks from Wearmouth and Jarrow in the 8th Century? How did it end up hundreds of miles away in northern Italy? And how should the story of the Codex Amiatinus encourage the church today?

In this episode Revd Dr Nick Moore, Warden of Cranmer Hall, speaks to Lauren Randall, PhD student in Theology and Religion at Durham University about her work on the Codex Amiatinus.
