We live in a society in which more and more people identify as 'no religion' but where interest in spirituality is on the increase. What does spirituality mean to the people who embrace it? Where do we find the language to talk about the spiritual dimension of everyday life and relate it to the Christian story?
In this event we will be considering the spiritual dimensions of everyday life and working together to explore how we can help people to articulate their deepest convictions and aspirations. You will go away better equipped to turn everyday chat into 'spiritual conversations' through which we can gently open people to the reality of God in their daily lives.
