ccfwebsite.com briefings


These briefings have been prepared following consultation with Christian leaders, churches and Christian charities who have taken part in the Listening to Britain's Churches process. Most briefings are an aggregation of peoples' thoughts - some have been written by just one person and where this is so, it has been indicated.

They are for information only and, because the CCF does not have a corporate policy platform, they should not be understood as representing all CCF members' views.

We would value your comments on how we might improve the briefings. Please send any thoughts to [email protected]

In addition to the briefings listed below we are currently preparing other briefings on Just War theory, pornography, restorative justice, urban regeneration and other world religions. In the meantime please use our search facility to find articles, speeches and interviews related to these and other issues.
