Institute for Spiritual Awareness

After a phase in western history when a dominant assumption was that spiritual influence was in decline, we find ourselves launched into what Richard John Neuhaus in 1997 prophetically referred to as ‘the approaching century of religion’.
The Institute for Spiritual Awareness is an Australian charity. It exists to advance Christian religion by addressing spiritual illiteracy, and promoting understanding of differences between monotheistic religions.
ISA provides expert resources to raise awareness of the spiritual motivations which influence human behaviour, especially those deriving from monotheistic religions.
Activities of ISA include education, training, research, publishing and advocacy, through private and public media, on topics such as:

  • Public Policy
  • Religious Conflict
  • Security and Terrorism
  • Christian Mission
  • Religious Freedom, Freedom of Speech and
  • Human Rights
  • Comparative Theology

The Director of ISA is Mark Durie. Visit his website at: markdurie.com
