Human nature is a curious creature.
Children are notorious for their endless questions and explorations. Studying gravity by knocking their cup off the table. Picking up bugs, licking things that should definitely not be licked, asking a series of questions and barely waiting long enough for you to come up with something resembling an answer.
Why would we expect something like faith in God to be simply accepted without questions?
It's called the MYSTERY of faith. By its very nature, faith invites us into a place of exploration and curiosity.

This step on the journey is very exciting. The parish churches provide opportunities, there is always something available that you can participate in.
Beyond the parish opportunities there is countless opportunities for self-exploration. Never before in human history has exploring your faith been so accessible. There are endless books, podcasts, Apps, retreats, workshops and groups available at the touch of a button.
All those options might feel intimidating, so we have a curated list of recommended resources to get you started. Raising Faith Filled Children will provide you with a starting point.
