2. Simplified language of the 4 voices whilst maintaining the intent of the voices (laymen's terms).

3. The contemporary relevance of issues surrounding Spirituality.  It was great this exploration was hands on and a good variety of engaging activities.  Sharing of story was a very powerful tool to build connection.  We used multiple forms of learning i.e. journaling, talking, reflecting etc.

4. Great to have a Framework and tools in order to share and explore this valuable information.

5. More talking about tough topics/open dialogue

6. Less of doing things just because we have done them for the last 50 years.  Have reasons for the things we say and do.

Holding on, holding on, holding on.
My precious, pathetic self.
My wounded feelings.
My destroyed sense of self.

The pains contracting around me,
pushing me out,
and into life.

But I don't want this.
I choose the old, the
comfortable, the confining.

I would rather die, with
my sense of self intact,
than breathe, raspingly,
this life beyond.
I would rather
be shredded to death
on the broken shards
of my little self,
than trustingly know
that I am alive,
that all is well,
and all manner of things are well.

And I am wiped down,
the blood lovingly washed,
swaddled, wrapped
in brand new cloth.

Judging people and situations is God's business. The business He gives us is to love others. When tempted to judge others, we can remember Jonah (or King David) and remember that our Heavenly Father will graciously listen to our thoughts and feelings and complaints and whinges and gripes!

Spirituality is personal, choice
Averse to organised religion/institutions
Some are indifferent - spirituality is not important
