Sarum College's international symposium will consider the multifaceted role played by wisdom within Christian thought and practice and reflect on ways in which wisdom can inform the mission of the Christian churches today. Our purpose in organising such an event is to carefully discern how wisdom can help our churches to interrelate theology, spirituality and Christian practice.
In a culture that tends towards specialisation and professionalization, it is easy to feel de-skilled and inadequate when it comes to simply being a good neighbour to those who 'walk in the valley of the shadow of death'. Sister Frances Dominica and the Reverend Mark Birch of Helen and Douglas House will lead this special weekend.
