Why do we share faith?

Whether we are Buddhist or Christian, Jewish or Muslim, or a member of any other faith community or none, our faith concerns every aspect of life and addresses some of the most fundamental issues we face. Each of us develops a system of beliefs, a worldview, whether that system is theistic (includes God) or atheistic. As these beliefs are so basic to who we are and how we understand the world it is only natural that we should discuss these with other people.

Members of the Faith2Share network see no purpose in 'selling' faith or imposing ideas on others but we do give a very high value to sharing faith. We believe that we have much to learn from, as well as to offer to, others as we explore our respective faiths. We actually believe that trusting God is the very best thing we ever did and it is that 'good news' that we offer.

Faith sharing requires that we respect one another, give time to listening as well as to speaking, are prepared to learn and to reconsider our own opinions, and above all that we are actively living by those things we believe.

Within the Faith2Share network we have many who have given most of their lives to listening and sharing with people who have different faith commitments from us. They will tell you that they have grown much deeper in their own faith because they were able to share with others.
