Following Jesus has arguably never been more confusing than in this cultural moment. With the faith of many falling by the wayside and the challenges mounting for those pursuing a distinctively Christian vision in the public square, what might we learn from our Saviour’s journey with two disenchanted disciples en route to Emmaus? This session will build on a biblical case for political and social engagement, forming a process of reflective action (learning to listen, imagine, create, and communicate). It will help us each contextualise what we’re discussing and construct our own public theology appropriate to being wise peacemakers who faithfully represent Christ and fruitfully seek first His kingdom in our particular time and place as whole-life disciples.
