Changing belief: faith in the bush

from The Big Tent · host Geraldine Doogue

What does it mean to wrestle with belief while living remotely in rural Australia? In this episode of our mini-series on changing belief, Grace Brennan speaks with Maddie Burnheim – raising her family on a property in western New South Wales – about her relationship with Catholicism, sitting out her doubts, the rituals of a bush christening, and the times when faith turns up and steers you home. 'There are things still that don't sit right with me,' Maddie tells Grace, 'but I now use my faith as a tool to get back on track.'
