The Theme is Faith and Identity – Embracing Difference.
At a time when for many people faith or lack of it is the principal source of their identity and often influences the way they respond to cultural and political circumstances, how is difference to be accommodated, let alone embraced?
And is faith the only determinant of our identity or what other factors are in play? How do we discover who we are and how we may or should respond, if reconciliation is ever to be achieved?
SPEAKERS: Susan McEwen and Rev Dr Sam McBratney
