Is that all there is?
Sea of Faith annual conferences do not end when the final whistle blows. Fans and players disperse, but the ideas, arguments and shared experiences reverberate around the mind, stimulating new insights and areas for exploration.Our September meeting is a chance for us to revisit ideas from this July’s conference and share new insights. It is not at all necessary to have attended the conference. Or even to stick to its topics. As the editor of Sofia said in introducing the magazine devoted to the conference, “most of the time that theme hovered in the background”. So we can try to provide answers to the central question, “is that all there is?” Or we can focus on another theme that emerged strongly, such as exclusion and inclusion. Or simply drift wherever the tides of discussion take us.
The talks and discussion are printed in the current issue of Sophia, and include the following which link direct to PDFs:
From Exclusive to Inclusive: A Journey of Faith by Ernie Rea
Justice Through the Looking Glass by Stephen Williams
Everyone welcome—existing fans, newcomers and the simply curious.
