  1. You must complete ALL of TASK FOUR in the homework booklet – your teacher will give you a completion date. Complete page 60 of your SPAG BOOKLET – this must come with you to EVERY LESSON THOUGH (don’t leave it at home).

  2. Starter… STARTER… Hot air balloon disaster – it needs to become lighter or it will crash and everyone will die. 2 people must vacate the basket – plunging to their death. • A reformed criminal • A WW2 veteran celebrating his 90th birthday • A teenager with a terminal illness • A couple who have just had a civil partnership • A recently divorced heart surgeon. • A unwed teenage mother and her 6 month old child. • A vicar with a drinking problem • A prostitute with 5 children at home. • A university student who recently converted to Islam. • YOU! In your opinion who should vacate the basket and why? Now imagine you are a Christian – might your choices change? Why

  3. Objective… To use a game of WIPEOUT, group work, and a practice exam question to understand Christian attitudes to the authority of the Church and the use of a variety of moral authorities.

  4. Outcomes… Your GOALS for the end of this lesson are… Grade C You will list reasons why some Christians only use the Churchas a basis for making moral decisions. Grade B Most will be able to evaluate Christian sources of moral authority and explain why some Christians use a variety of sources when making moral decisions. Grade A/A* Some will be able to express an opinion on the need to use a variety of authorities when making a moral decision.

  5. The Church is used as a source of moral authority by some Christians as they believe it is able to give advice when making moral decisions. Many Christians will use other things as well as the Church when making their decisions, however, some Christians ONLY use the Church as a basis for making moral decisions.

  6. Why the Church has authority for some Christians… Think Read the statements on your sheet – decide which you think are correct (tick) and which are WIPEOUTS (incorrect - cross)

  7. W W W W W     The Church is the Body of Christ on earth and so is able to teach as Jesus would. Christ is called the Head of the Church in the New Testament – so Church teachings come from Jesus The Holy Spirit is present in the Church today. The Church shows how Jesus and the apostles dealt with moral issues.  The Church only preaches God’s word and therefore teaches Christians exactly what God wants. The Church is based on Jesus’ teaching to ‘love one another’. Jesus taught that the Church was the most important source of moral authority. The tradition of the Church should be respected.   Church leaders are able to give the correct guidance on all moral issues. God is able to speak through church leaders God only Speaks/ communicates to his followers through church leaders Church leaders have been appointed by God

  8. Outcomes… Grade C You will list reasons why some Christians only use the Church as a basis for making moral decisions. Did you achieve YOUR goals?…

  9. You are competing against other members in your group – pride is at stake. After 2 minutes you with then turn the paper around and add to another section – until you have done all four. In groups of FOUR get an A3 sheet and 4 different coloured pens (1 each). Start with one edge of the sheet each… so either bible, church, conscience or situation ethics. You have 2 minutes to come up with one advantage and one disadvantage for your section. THE WINNER = Someone who got something in EVERY section – if this is more than one person it will then go on the quality of your responses.

  10. Now as a group – look carefully at the disadvantages – It is because of these that many Christians believe a variety of moral authorities should be used rather than just one. In the middle of your page can you come up with some reasons WHY Christians use a variety of authorities when making moral decisions.

  11. EXTENSION: Can you give any EXAMPLES to go with these points? Why some Christians use a variety of authorities when making moral decisions… Choose any FOUR (from your group work OR below) and get them in your book under the subheading above… • Some of the information from the authorities may be outdated and cannot help with modern situations. • Some sources of authority are dependent on the person having sufficient knowledge to make the decision, which they may not have. • Some sources of authority may have solutions that are not acceptable in today’s society. • They may think that a mixture of sources of authority will give a more informed choice. • Different authorities can be used in different situations. • Some sources of authority might not give advice on a certain issue.

  12. Outcomes… Grade B Most will be able to evaluate Christian sources of moral authority and explain why some Christians use a variety of sources when making moral decisions. Did you achieve YOUR goals?…
