Welcome!
Through Life Discipleship was an exploratory project run by St Peter's Saltley Trust in 2013-14, aiming to understand how real congregations are tackling real questions about the relationship between faith and growing up and growing older, and to share those insights with others.
Some of the insights from 'through-life discipleship' are feeding into a larger piece of research with local churches on 'what helps Christian disciples grow?' Visit Saltley Trust's main website to find out more. We hope all to develop more specifically 'through life discipleship' work shortly.... in particular, revising and completing our short study/reflection course (see resources).
Although the project is currently dormant, this site will be maintained on an occasional basis as an online presence for the project, and with a blog reporting news and resources on aspects of ageing and Christian faith. To find out more about this project, please do contact us.

Do you want to journey with us?Although the Through Life Discipleship project is currently dormant, we are still interested in partnering with churches and organisations in the wider West Midlands region who either are already in the process of developing work in this area or are interested in exploring the theme in their congregation and community. Please do contact us for a further conversation of how we may be able to work together.
We are also interested to hear from any church or organisation with a particular interest or experience in questions of age, life stage, generations and Christian faith. |
Questionnaire Survey
As part of this project we are interested to hear what local congregations are doing to practically engage with questions of age and through-life discipleship. If you are a church leader we would be very interested in hearing your thoughts by asking you to fill out a short online questionnaire. This can be found by clicking on the following button:
