New Course: The God Who is There
In this 14-session course eminent Bible Scholar Don Carson takes us through the highlights of the story of the Bible with a focus on the God who is behind this great book. We will be looking at God in the 14 sessions below and how he relates to life today. This isn't just theoretical discussions but real-life issues that affect us everyday. How can God make a difference in your life? Come and find out. This is for
- those who are not Christians but are seeking to find out more about God
- for those Christians who have decided that it is time to understand more about their faith and how it conveys God to them
- and even for the skeptic who realizes that while he/she criticizes the Bible they really don't know much about what is says
My hunch is that as you start to discover the real God of the Bible some of you will be drawn to Him in a personal way.
| Who: | This course is for all who want to know more about the God of the Bible and how he applies to your life |
| What: | "The God Who is There" - a 14-week discussion course with accompanying book and dvd. The general format for the course will be that we listen to a 55-minute dvd presentation and then have about a 1/2 hour of dicussion. |
| Where: | Venue changes from week to week so please contact us or call Jeff on mob 07831 316120 if you have any questions |
| When: | Come at 7.45pm to start at 8pm. Ends by 9.30pm (contact person: Jeff , mob 07831 316120 )*. Please see the full course schedule as the course meets different nights each week. *Note: this is a change from the previously announced Tuesday start date on 3rd May. |
