Salt Course: Exploring Life's Big Questions Online
Event Information
About this Event
Space to explore
We all have questions. What's my purpose? How can I be happy? How can I be good? Is there a future for humanity? Each week, we’ll have a short talk and plenty of discussion in groups. No question is off-limits. All perspectives welcome.
Christianity for secular people
Aren’t we better off without religion? Most people assume so. But, have we been too quick to write off God? Each week, we’ll consider what Christianity has to say to our irreligious age.
A place to belong
We begin as a diverse group with different perspectives. We’ve had agnostics, atheists, those coming from a different religious perspective, those who are simply curious and everyone in between. There's plenty of discussion, many opinions shared and much laughter in the process.
What do course participants say?
"My experience at the Salt Course was simply incredible. Everyone was so welcoming and people seemed really interested in getting to know you. I loved how the smaller discussion group provided a safe space for any number of questions." (Bella, student)
"SALT did a lot of good for me. It really helped me shape a deeper understanding of faith's practical and theoretical strengths. The theories and ideas in the main talks and the discussions were always beneficial." (Kevin, librarian)
"The Salt course gave me the opportunity to ask myself questions that challenged the views that I had. It was an opportunity to discuss the meaning of life with others without judgement. " (Kate, barista)
We consider six universal questions:
1. Meaning: Isn’t there more to life than this?
2. Satisfaction: How can I be happy?
3. Morality: How can I be good?
4. Hope: Is there a future for humanity?
5. Truth: Who can I trust?
6. Peace: How do we overcome anxiety?
