Biblical Reflections for Discussion

This section encourages you to reflect on how God guides us through scripture.

Belonging and Community

The biblical vision for society is rooted in a community of love and belonging among all its creatures.

Wealth and Poverty

Jesus despised luxury at the expense of those in poverty.

Equality and Respect

The dignity of others is to be respected in all circumstances.

Kings and Prophets

The prophetic role of Pope Francis in particular, has challenged us to think and live in radically new ways.

Law and a new Social Order

God defends the most vulnerable from social injustice.

Creation Care

Our relationship and responsibilities towards creation need to change urgently. We are co-creators of the earth’s wellbeing not passive consumers of its resources.
