Growing Faith in a Changing World
By Ashley Prisk
As an educator with over a decade of experience in Catholic education, I have witnessed the challenges young people face.
However, brief, meaningful moments in the classroom reveal how faith takes root and inspires action that brings positive change to the world around them.
A recent question from a Year 12 student prompted reflection on the deeper purpose of my work.
She compared Buddhism, where people do good works in the hope of being reincarnated into a better life, with Christianity, where people often think of good works as a way to reach heaven and avoid hell.
This kind of question makes you stop, think, and look deeper.
Author's summary: Growing faith is a task for all Christians.
