Statement 21 a (Vol 4 No 42)

We search for a New Faith that will be relevant to the experiences of people in the 21st Century.  The New Faith points to a new reformation and a new enlightenment.


We search for faith to understand;

To guide us on our way;

A faith that is believable,

Related to our day.

 

A reformation calls us forth

To challenge and review

The status quo, our past beliefs;

To question: “What is true?”

 

Our new enlightenment gives rise

To many new ideas;

If we embrace new truths discerned

New hope may drive out fears.

 

New faith can foster new resolve;

Can give us room to grow;

New faith can energise our hearts

To let love overflow.
