Their approach is an existential approach to religious education, one focussed on ways of leading one's life, as opposed to more common confessional, anthropological, knowledge-focused or literacy approaches. They argue that since the religious way of life is an option open to everyone, education has the task to provide the new generation with opportunities to explore this option as an 'existential possibility' and an opportunity to discern its value in their life and for the world. The book opens a new dialogue on religious education in schools and on a societal level as something that can enable children and young people to share and develop their own thinking around issues including war, inequality and the climate crisis, as well as deepened understandings of the beauty of human life.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatricia Hannam \u003c\/b\u003eis Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Exeter, UK.
