Understanding our faith
The Learn: Understanding Our Faith conference provided a great learning and development opportunity to everyday believers in the Kirk who were interested in thinking in more depth and detail about their Christian faith.
This conference was based on the theme of Learn: Understanding Our Faith. Contributors to the publication delivered talks on six core questions of Christian life:
- How can we know God?
- What does Jesus Christ do for us?
- Who is the Spirit?
- What is the Church for?
- What does Discipleship mean?
- How will I know if I'm going to Heaven?
