In March 2019 around sixty people, including both academics and practitioners, gathered at St Beuno’s Jesuit Spirituality Centre in north Wales for a conference entitled Towards a Discerning Church. This was seen as one response to Pope Francis’s insistence that ‘today the Church needs to grow in discernment, in the ability to discern’. The papers from this conference form the core of this special issue of The Way. One concern that repeatedly emerged at the conference was the need for discernment in dealing with the current environmental challenges facing the whole of humanity; another was its importance to young people as they find their way in the world.
