The Doctrine Working Group produces a range of discission papers on various topics of significance to the Uniting Church. They also profile papers written by other writers that address issues of significance.

The National Working Group on Doctrine has now prepared nine discussion starters known as DocBytes.  They aim to encourage theological thinking on specific topics across the Uniting Church.  These two-page papers are especially aimed at groups though they can also be used for personal reflection.  They provide some input, questions, and also point to further reading options.

From time to time issues emerge that the Doctrine Working Group is required to respond to. This can be through the Assembly Standing Committee or through other channels.

The Uniting Church's beliefs are drawn from the Bible and our Catholic, Reformed and Evangelical tradition. The primary statement is the Basis of Union (1971,1992) which continues to guide the life of the Uniting Church.
