Faith book reflections

The book I have given away most and why: Fiona Hammond

“The character of Phoebe in Paul’s Letter to the Romans has always intrigued me.

That is a life I wanted to read more about,” says Fiona Hammond from St Francis College

“In my family growing up, faith was an open topic. Books about faith were read and discussed and ideas challenged and listened to.

This led to a few ‘over my head’ moments, but many of Lewis’ ideas stayed with me,” says Fiona Hammond from FormEDfaith, as she invites anglican focus readers to the launch of a new faith formation resource
