The Student Christian
Movement at the
Australian
Catholic University in
2008.
The Student Christian
Movement at the
Australian Catholic University started a
discussion group called Questions of Faith
early this year.
Every week during the Wednesday common hour we invite a
guest speaker who presents a short paper on a controversial or important
subject.
We then spend the rest of the hour discussing and
debating the issues.
It's a great opportunity for people to engage their
faith in a searching and thoughtful way!
We also make sure that we provide snacks for people to
munch on while discussing the issues of the world.
Discussion topics include:
1. Peter and Paul:
Tales of Two Churches which was very
interesting regarding the fighting factions in the early Church.
2. World Youth Day: Is
Christianity Wasted on the Young? This should
provide some interesting debate!
3. New Ways of Reading
the Scriptures This opens up fresh ways of
interpreting the scriptures.
Our group ranges anywhere from 6 - 15 people, with a
core group of approx 5 people.
We attract people from all walks in the university, from
undergrads, staff members, lecturers, ordination candidates, and
post-graduates.
All contributions add to the richness of the discussion
and enjoyment of the day!!
