INTRODUCTION

Year 2 continues the unit on Jesus and the Bible with a study of Acts and two perspectives on Jesus - Crossan and Wright. There's a whole new theme on social and historical developments in religious thought, covering attitudes to wealth, migration and equality, as well as challenges from secularisation, science and pluaralism and diversity.

The final unit looks at the ecumenical movement, charismatic religious experience (tying in to one of the Year 2 Philosophy units) and a bit of liberation theology.
