Intellect Riverina
Intellect aims to provide a platform for rigorous thinking about the Christian faith and its implications for our society.
Why Intellect Riverina?
Intellect Riverina is a ministry developed by local church leaders to engage people with intellectually compelling ideas about our world from a Christian perspective and how it relates to our lives. We believe the Christian faith withstands intellectual scrutiny and provides a framework for human flourishing. It points to answers relating to the scientific, social and moral questions of our day.

About the Topic: What has Christianity got to offer a fractured world?
What has Christianity got to offer a fractured world? At a time of growing loneliness, anxiety and alarming polarisation, we have lost a shared vision of what is true, good and beautiful. Simon Smart makes the case for Christianity offering the life-giving alternative to the dominant cultural narratives of our day. At this FREE Traction event, Simon will illuminate key aspects of the Christian story that speak to universal human longings with compelling answers that are found nowhere else. We will explore a vision of life that is not only coherent, but uniquely appealing. Wednesday 11 March, 7:30pm at The Riverina Playhouse Theatre.Event RegistrationStay in the Loop
