Unit Description
In this unit you will deepen your understanding of the Uniting Church and its theological and historical roots. Engage with the Basis of Union and the church’s post union life. Explore emerging theological trajectories. Reflect on women’s ordination, cultural diversity, commitment to reconciliation with Indigenous peoples,
and the UCA’s profile in matters of social justice. A great unit for anyone who wants to know more about the UCA or who has been called to leadership in the
