Faith Matters

By David Fincham

In this assorted collection of essays, I explore a variety of interests related to my faith - from faith leadership in a Catholic school to the reflection of faith in Shakespeare's plays, the faith of the children at Fatima and faith in the holy wisdom of Hagia Sophia. It covers a multiplicity of topics, but all have preoccupied my thoughts during my lifetime. I hope the reader will find them informative, encouraging and entertaining in diverse measure.This book explores the importance of faith from different perspectives and conveys responses to faith in each. It will be clear that faith is considered from a variety of standpoints, which reflects, I believe, a prism through which an eclectic (or even catholic!) range of subjects can demonstrate the breadth of its significance of faith in my life. As Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI said in an address to teachers and Religious in the Chapel of St Mary's University, Twickenham, on Friday, 17 September 2010: 'Faith is not a light which scatters all our darkness, but a lamp which guides our steps in the night and suffices for the journey.'
