Ever wish you could find a tribe of women who want to talk theology over dinner?

If the thought of spending an evening exploring God's Word, learning something new, asking big questions, and sharing good conversation with other Christian women sounds refreshing, Theology After Dark is for you.

You get to pick what you're most curious about, connect with like-minded women, and consider what the Bible has to say about how we live, work and play! Don't miss your seat at the table!

What do AI chatbots reveal about young people, loneliness and the enduring importance of relationship?

This October ADM’s Mental Health Institute and Mary Andrews College are offering an intensive that explores young lives in a complex world, including digital culture, personhood, relationships, independence, AI and spiritual formation.

For ministry workers, teachers, chaplains, counsellors, parents and others caring for young people, this is an opportunity to think deeply about the world young people are growing up in — and how Christians can respond with wisdom and care.

You can attend one or two days, or join us for the full three-day intensive.

Anne, a mother of a neurodivergent teen, shares, “The ‘fun’ games at the start feel overwhelming for her–the loud noise, the unpredictability, the chaos. I want her to be encouraged in her faith, the way I was as a teen, but youth group doesn’t seem to be working for her.”

Teenage years can be tricky enough. For neurodivergent youth, they can be even more challenging.

How can we make youth group easier for neurodivergent young people to be part of?

Join us at our next Spotlight Session to learn from Kate Morris, a researcher who also has lived experience as a mother of neurodivergent children.

Spotlight Session: Neurodiversity & Children | Monday 12 October | 7:00pm – 8:30pm | Online, Recording and In-person at ADM

You want every child in your program to feel known, loved, and welcomed.

For neurodivergent children, that sense of belonging at church can sometimes be harder to access—whether it's sensory overwhelm, unpredictable transitions or finding ways to communicate, church spaces can feel challenging.

And for leaders, even knowing where to start to make changes can be puzzling. Here are 5 things worth knowing if you're serving kids and youth in your church community.

Coffee, Cake & Theology is an invitation to join us for thoughtful conversations about faith, Scripture and the Christian life.

This time, we’ll be talking about AI — something many of us are already using in small ways, even as we’re still working out what it might mean for the future.

What does it look like to think about AI as Christians? What questions should we be asking? And how might the Bible help us think wisely about technology, ethics and human responsibility?

Join us as Rev. Dr Becki Philip and Naomi Escott help us explore these questions together. Register via the link below.

Coffee, Cake & Theology is a relaxed morning tea with the Mary Andrews College community — a chance to enjoy good coffee, good food, and learn from God's Word.
