This online discussion group opens the conversation for many people who are curious about what the experience of faith might actually feel like from both a traditionally Catholic perspective and from the perspective of the ordinary lives of good people who seek meaning and purpose but who are yet to be exposed to our tradition.

Through the lens of the lived experiences of specific characters from the Diocese of Wilcannia-Forbes - most of them Catholic, but some not - participants accompany others into a glimpse of some of the themes which lie at the heart of what might be understood as an authentic spiritual life.

Participants engage with conversations which signpost essential spiritual markers relevant to knowledge about what leads into fuller humanity from a Christian and Catholic perspective. This online discussion group draws participants to seek Christ at the heart of human experience and nurtures a capacity to trust that individuals have all they need to begin the journey into the constant conversion which is discipleship.

The online discussion group will be of value to many people of faith, particularly those entrusted with teaching about our Christian tradition to the young in our schools and to those working in Catholic agencies and organisations which profess unique values and mission identities. It will also be of value to those outside our faith tradition who are curious about who we are and what we value.
