Around Sacred Texts

7-9pm Monday 27th October | 7-9pm Tuesday 11th November | Third date TBC

3 sessions looking at common themes in texts that are sacred to people of Christianity, Judaism and Islam, with the hope of deepening our understanding of one another. 

How will these events be inclusive and balanced?

Each evening will be hosted at a different faith centre and details will be sent after signing up to the event. We encourage attending all three evenings if possible so that discussion groups remain the same throughout the series.

The events are being co-hosted by a member of each faith, and all sacred texts will be checked by a trusted and learned leader. The themes for these evenings will be ‘Prayer’, ‘Fasting’, and ‘Generosity’.

Each text will be looked at in a different order each time, and discussion around each text will be separate, we will not be actively comparing each text.

We hope to have an equal number of representatives from each faith around each table, or at least all three faiths represented around each table.

Any refreshments provided will be kosher and halal.

All participants will need to have read and agreed to the Listening Spaces (Around Sacred Texts) Guidelines.

Please note: further details will follow booking confirmation.

Listening Spaces are events that facilitate face-to-face, intentional listening and dialogue between people of different cultures, races, faiths, social class and political opinions.
