The Influence of Christianity on Western Thought

How will these resources help you?

As teachers of RE, we are aware of the continued influence Christianity has on Western culture, thought, and practice. This continues to be evident in many ways, such as the timing of our holidays, and not least the content of our school curricula, which often place significant emphasis on Christianity on account of its historic and continued influence of British society. These resources aim to help teachers feel more equipped to discuss the extent of Christianity’s influence on Western thought and culture, as well as to consider its presence in a progressively post-Christian society.
