Walking Humbly with God by Dr Timothy Gaden $10.00
Every Lent is an opportunity to
examine anew our walk with God. We are invited each year in this season to walk
with the Israelites on their journey from slavery to freedom, and to walk with
Jesus in the last week of his earthly life. As we do this, Jesus walks with us,
pointing out the road ahead and holding us when we stumble.
In this down to earth series of
Lenten studies, each week focuses on a different aspect of this humble walk
with God. Copies are available from Bible Study Leaders.
Rev Jo will offer studies on Wednesdays following 10.30am
Holy Communion in the vestry and Wednesday evening 7.30pm at the Rectory. For
other Bible Study groups please speak to our Bible Study Leaders.
