NEW YEAR'S EVE SERVICE: "Freedom Begins at Bethlehem"

NEW YEAR'S EVE SERVICE: "Freedom Begins at Bethlehem"

The morning service on Sunday 31st December 2017 is at the usual time of 11am.

During Advent we have used the Gospel narratives to remind us that at Christmas we are celebrating the GREATEST JOURNEY - that from heaven to earth.

Now that Christmas is almost over and a new year begins, we use the Epistles to unpack what that first Christmas means for us now.

Focusing on Romans 8 v.1-17 we acknowledge that "Freedom Begins at Bethlehem". At first sight this passage might appear to be rather densely packed theology typical of Paul. However, we are given some key truths, wrapped up in vivid and unforgettable images, that offer solid assurance and encouragement as a new year begins.

Look at the blog for a new year's thought.

There is no evening service.
