This stream, co-ordinated by the Evangelical Alliance, will explore the importance of spirituality in the life of an activist. It will also explore the importance of the connection between you and God in your service of the community. The stream will look at different ways of engaging with God and will provide an opportunity to discover new ways of connecting with God and with others. The stream will be led by people from differing Christian spiritual traditions and will help you to understand ways in which you can remain distinctly Christian and clearly connected to God in what you do and how you do it.
Joel Edwards led a main session on Sustaining Spirituality.
The seminar titles within this stream are:
