Curious to connect your theological expertise and insights with the thriving discussion about the new tools of GenAI?
Interested in reflecting with colleagues on how the University of Divinity can become a model of best practice in decision-making about this technology?

Here is an opportunity to join a short-term ‘book group’ that will meet three or four times between now and February 2027. They are designed to be a manageable way for ‘critical mass’ of students and staff to help inform UD policy on the ethical and spiritual choices that GenAI presents.

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Rev Dr Simon Carey Holt, who died on Tuesday evening, 25 August 2026. Simon served on the Faculty of Whitley College for more than 10 years as Senior Lecturer in Spirituality and Practical Theology, before leaving in 2010 to become Senior Pastor at Collins Street Baptist Church in the Melbourne CBD. His contribution to Whitley, the University, and to the wider church has been significant. He will be deeply missed by so many whose lives were shaped by his teaching, ministry and friendship.

You can hear Christopher Dudfield discuss spiritual care and our obligations to the dying with James Carleton this week on ABC's God Forbid.

Christopher Dudfield is a spiritual care practitioner, registered counsellor and manager of Spiritual Support Services at Canberra Hospital. He is a sessional tutor in counselling at the University of Canberra and a Doctor of Professional Practice candidate at the University of Divinity, where his doctoral research focuses on voluntary assisted dying and spiritual wellbeing.

Years have been spent arguing over whether VAD should be permitted, but more is demanded of practitioners than taking a side over patient choice; rather, are we willing to stand with people even when we cannot endorse their choices?
