Bible Study Following Adrian Alker's sermon preached at the Parish Communion on 23rd January a number of the congregation expressed interest in reading it. Adrian has provided a copy which is available in the March Parish Magazine and also here as a pdf file. Be inspired afresh by the Bible – E100 You may have read about the ‘E100 Challenge', to encourage those who don't already, to start reading the bible, using the 100 ‘essential' readings suggested. The programme is flexible; it can be used by individuals but it is even more powerful when a group of people read the passages and engage with them together: at both Home Groups this term, we'll use this scheme as a ‘starter' for discussion. If you'd like to be part of a group to read with, and don't fancy joining an established group, please have a word with me. There are notes available (£5), to go with the readings which you may find useful. If you'd like some please ask. I hope this scheme will encourage people to develop a regular habit of spending more time with God, reading the Bible and praying. To find out more there's a website, http://www.e100challenge.org.uk/ or have a word… Peter Hemming

Bible Study Bible Reading Fellowship To be a regular reader of the Bible is frequently a practical difficulty in this over busy life. To have a prompt, such as a short passage of scripture, carefully chosen, ready to hand, is therefore a blessing! The Bible Reading Fellowship (BRF) is a Christian organization which prepares selected, carefully themed, passages from the Bible for each and every day. The readings are accompanied by explanatory notes together with a short prayer. These Bible notes are issued three times a year starting each May. Now is therefore a good time to register your interest and join the St Chad's group of regular readers of Bible notes. May I suggest that you check with me to find out more about this opportunity. I can show you samples of the New Daylight or Guidelines series of Notes, which were current in the past year. I hope you will want to become a regular reader, and I can arrange for this to happen for you! Christopher Wenban. |
