Experiencing a Changed World: How Are We Being Reshaped?
Over the past two years all over the world every one of us has been subject to deep change and uncertainty. The responses of each of us have been different. We have heard much from politicians and health experts but what of our spiritual lives? What is it all meaning for our understanding and experience of faith and community?
In the pandemic we have been forced to enter a liminal space where the structures that normally frame our lives have been seriously disrupted. Invited speakers in conversation will seek to create a space for us to think together deeply about what we have been through and its consequences, especially as it has impacted upon spiritual experience and faith communities.
Our first main theme will be the potential of the pandemic to enable us to think and feel differently as individuals and communities about the challenges of the climate crisis. Secondly, we will consider how the pandemic has affected our spiritual lives as individuals and in community. What does this all mean for our continuing ecumenical and interfaith work?
Our speakers are Jennifer Kavanagh, Alex Wildwood, Alastair McIntosh and Timothy Ashworth.
This conference is a blended event and we look forward to welcoming participants both online and in person at the Woodbrooke Centre. Presentations will be livestreamed to online participants. There will be separate discussion groups for those at Woodbrooke and those participating online but plenaries will be blended and, as far as possible, will be set up to enable participation for both in person and online participants. There will be online spaces outside the session times for those who are online to meet and talk with other online conference participants.
