Do you want to dig just a little bit deeper into the Word of God?
Our fellowship groups are about getting more from the Bible. They are not for those who think they already know it all, but rather for those who just want to humbly learn. You don’t need to have a super spiritual edge. You don’t even need to speak.
The meetings are fortnightly, on Tuesday and Wednesday (which ever suits you) and the emphasis is on informally looking at the bible. The leader of the group will go through a passage of scripture with the aid of some questions from a book which everyone has. In each chapter of our guide book there are lots of background notes which help us get a feel for the time when the bible passage was originally written and what it might then mean for us today whether that was 2000 or 3000 years ago.
We've just started looking at the book of Galatians using 7 studies written by Timothy Keller who we studied with last year, learning about how to live out the gospel in all aspects of our lives. This time we are discussing Paul's letter to the Galatian church.
The church in Galatia faced a choice between two 'gospels' - two ways of approaching a relationship with God, two ways of looking at life. These young Christians were being falsely told that they needed to perform to be a Christian, rather than relying on Christ's life, death and resurrection. The choice between the gospel of Christ-alone and the false Christ-plus version still confronts us today. The false one is attractive...but deadly. The real one sets us free, now and eternally. The gospel matters.
