How can I live as I do when those who send up these agonising cries to an all-loving God live as they do?

'... as I passed through the gateway I began to hear, as never before, the cries of the poorest and the most excluded on this planet - cries for food, cries for mercy, cries for justice, cries for love - my love... I find that I cannot close my ears to those cries They are not deafening so much as urgent, heart-rending and desperate.' The road ahead begins with the question above.

- Work out the relationship between our faith and our lifestyle
- Gain a biblical understanding of the issues involved in simplicity
- Become more familiar with the social and global context within which we are living
- Develop community and support.
