John Lenders will also be formally launching the  Christian Research Association’s latest book:
Life, Ethics and Faith in  Australian Society - Facts and Figures
With a response from Rev Dr. Philip Hughes

Light refreshments will be served and the book will also be available for purchase.

What people are saying about the book:
“This excellent resource will provide teachers with a wealth of data based upon current research and study.  Teachers will be able to develop relevant learning experiences from this book that will be extremely beneficial to their students with regards to the place of religion, life and ethics in Australian society” - Mrs Louise Zavone, President of the Association for Studies of Religion

“Here’s an amazing and unique resource for pastors and Christian leaders, based on carefully-edited information from the Australian 2011 Census and other sources. Philip Hughes and his colleagues have given us a valuable tool for thoughtful analysis, planning, prayer (and Facebook discussions!)” - Rev Rowland Croucher, John Mark Ministries

“This is an extraordinary book. Hughes and Fraser have gathered facts and figures about many aspects of Australian society and presented them in a comprehensive and engaging way. If you are looking for up-to-date information about the way Australians live and what they believe, you will find it here, along with insightful  commentary. I strongly recommend it.” - Dr Bob Dixon, Director, Australian Catholic Bishops Conference Pastoral Research Office
