Faith and culture, faith and reason, need each other. As Pope John Paul II taught us, faith when lived becomes culture; in fact civilization depends upon this relationship. The Second Spring Association connects organizations and individuals involved in the renewal of Christian culture through educational work, research and publishing. Members of the Association are available as lecturers, translators, artists, and consultants.  A free e-newsletter is sent out to registered members. To register, please contact us by email.

Elsewhere on this site, also listed in the main menu to the left, you can find information about our various books and upcoming events. Readers can participate in an online Forum and read our regular Blogs. Please do so - it is a great way to stay in touch and explore common interests. In addition, the pages listed on the left of your screen under “RESEARCH” contain a wealth of material on faith and culture from a Catholic perspective. 

The office of the Association, along with that of our journal Second Spring, is located above the Art Jericho gallery in King Street, Oxford, at the Centre for Faith & Culture. If you are planning to visit Oxford, you may find our Guide to Oxford helpful. .
