Theology for Non-Theologians
Rev. Dr Richard Topping
Join us for a day-long workshop which will delve into the depths of the question discussed in the Friday evening lecture.
· What does it mean to be human?
· Jesus and justice
· Trinity and community
· The church and the Holy Spirit
This day we will continue to study and engage with these topics! Let us explore what it means to be "the church" in the 21st Century. In our discussion of these themes, we will pay particular attention to the challenges and prospects for Christian confession in a time like ours.
