The Faith Project is an interactive documentary and app that features evocative short films about being spiritual in the modern world. This accompanying six-part video discussion series was developed to assist educators in exploring the diverse perspectives that exist across religious, spiritual and cultural lines among an array of young people practising various faith traditions in Canada. We encourage educators to begin an ongoing discussion on the many different faiths that are practised throughout the country and to use this project as a springboard to a thoughtful conversation about what it means to be spiritual.
In this short clip, the participants of The Faith Project are asked how they find themselves functioning in a largely secular world as young and spiritual people. Use this clip to facilitate a discussion in your classroom on practicing faith today, and ask your students what may be some challenges for a spiritual person to practice their faith in a secular world.
