RELIGION, THEOLOGY AND SPIRITUALITY

Liverpool, with its two iconic cathedrals, the oldest mosque in England, and a long history shaped by faith and cultural diversity, is the ideal setting for the Religion, Theology and Spirituality degree. This city is home to vibrant religious communities and a thriving cultural scene, making it the perfect backdrop to explore the wisdom, mysticism, and practices of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, and Buddhism, alongside contemporary spiritual identities that go beyond traditional faiths.

The Religion, Theology and Spirituality course at Liverpool Hope offers the opportunity to study ancient wisdom, rituals, and sacred texts while critically engaging with pressing modern debates. You will examine profound ethical and theological questions around life, death, gender, sexuality, evil, suffering, ecology, violence, radicalisation, interfaith dialogue, secularisation, and spirituality in today’s world.

Through visits to places of worship and explorations of cultural expressions such as art, music, and even football, the Religion, Theology and Spirituality degree allows you to understand how communities create meaning, hope, and identity. The course also equips you with critical skills for careers where understanding diverse beliefs and navigating ethical challenges are key, including education, politics, community work, and the civil service.
