Teaching religion : changing conceptions of R.E. -- Faith : meaning and significance -- Belief in God : knowledge, evidence and assent -- Understanding the nature of God -- The moral dimension : has God a place in it? -- Spiritual development -- Coping with doubt -- and the problem of evil -- Surviving the secular age? -- Challenges for religious education -- Indoctrination?

"Challenges for Religious Education addresses and critically examines where religious education and faith schools fit within a secular society and whether there is still a place for them at all. It analyses what religious education could look like if it were considered from a wider 'world views' perspective that doesn't focus on a particular set of religious beliefs. With a further consideration of the 'reasonableness' of holding a faith and therefore in teaching it, this book considers the ongoing tensions between faith and reason. A crucial read for anyone interested in the future of religious education teaching in a secular society"--
