RELIGIOUS EDUCATION • OUR RELIGIOUS STORY<br />
MODULE 2:<br />
OUR RELIGIOUS STORY<br />
PURPOSE<br />
This module encourages students to explore religious stories.<br />
It asks them to become aware of the power of stories to portray<br />
deeper truths about the human condition and the spiritual search<br />
for meaning. Through an exploration of stories from various<br />
religious texts and traditions, the students are given opportunities<br />
to reflect on the implications of these in their own lives.<br />
The students will recognise the relationships that exist and are<br />
developing among religious groups in Ireland and seek to analyse<br />
the presentation of religion in the media today. The module<br />
tracks the link between tradition and present-day faith in action,<br />
while providing students with an opportunity for active<br />
participation in their own communities.<br />
