Inspiring Faith in Schools addresses the privileging of secularism
that appears to affect RE in countries influenced by modern western
thought. The authors argue that a more engaging form of RE would
emerge if religious life were to inhabit centre stage. Currently
religious faith is made to hover in the wings awaiting the call to
face the inquisitorial challenge of the modern day enquirer. The
consequent relationship between pupil and the Divine as the purpose
of study is then already intrinsically irreligious, as indicated in
the Book of Job by putting God in the dock, whereas it is the pupil
who should be (cross-)examining his or her life. What are the ways
of exciting and engaging the young so that they begin to entertain
the possibility of religious life as a genuine option for
themselves? Leading scholars in philosophy and theology from the
UK, Australia, Canada and the USA come together to address these
questions together with RE experts. Marius Felderhof writes an
Afterword summing up the challenges faced by such a re-visioning of
RE.
