He remains a Governor of Methodist College and Edgehill Theological College, Belfast and is a frequent visitor to Ballycastle.

Subjects discussed in Rev Good’s conversation will include the part faith has played in the history of our conflict, whether faith has been a help or hindrance in our search for peace, if faith has anything distinctive to offer in our journey towards healing and, given recent events, whether we can continue to have ‘Faith in the Journey?’.

Open questions and discussion will follow the conversation and supper will be provided. A maximum of 50 people can attend so come early to avoid disappointment!
