Christian Witness in a Multi-Religious World
Our Deputy Chair, Revd Dr Barbara Glasson, has been involved in putting together a new booklet, ‘Acting in God’s Love: Christian Witness in a Multi-Religious World’. This practical theological resource uses the document 'Christian Witness in a Multi-Religious World: Recommendations for Conduct' produced by the World Council of Churches (WCC) and the World Evangelical Alliance (WEA). It aims to help you gain a practical understanding towards application of the guidelines, provide a wider perspective of the UK context and develop deeper theological reflection on interfaith engagement.
Copies of the booklet can be downloaded from the Churches Together in Britain & Ireland website.
CLAY brochure
Christians Learning Across Yorkshire's (CLAY) brochure will hopefully be available early in 2019.
