Most of Jesus’ recorded conversations revolved around questions: either from people to him or from him to them. For many, the asking of these questions led not only to robust understanding but to a much deeper and more life-embracing appreciation of him.
“Any Questions?” aims to give us a similar experience. Each week we address one big question. We hear a short talk explaining what the Bible says in answer. We have time to discuss the issue informally around tables. And then the floor is open to any questions.
You do not need to believe or know anything in particular to take part and you can ask your questions anonymously.
Come and join us, 6:45-7:30pm in the church building, as we explore life together.
Although we have paused for the summer, Any Questions will return – in September
In the meantime – here are some of the examples of our previous questions.
This last term, we talked about (amongst other questions):
Work and ambition
We live in a world that encourages us to chase success, wealth, and power. But for the Christian, they also follow a Saviour who calls them to a different way of living. How does the Christian reconcile ambition with faith? Can they strive for success without losing sight of Christ?
Can a Christian hold to evolutionary theory?
Many modern commentators claim that evolutionary theory has squeezed God into a corner, killed and then buried him with its all embracing explanation. Is it true? Can a Christian hold to evolutionary theory?
What is a disciple?
Christians use the word “disciple” a fair deal… But what does it really mean? Who is a disciple? What does it mean to be “making disciples”?
How could the Bible possibly be everything God wants to say to us?
Christians have held for centuries that the Bible alone is sufficient. But held up against a world of political unrest, mental health epidemics, global war and so much more, surely the creator and sustainer of the universe would want to say more than what’s in the Bible’s 66 books?
