Christianity Explored - The World We All Want!

This  afternoon we'll continue with our Christianity Explored Bible Study,
for every age-group!
We have now a regular group of students,
so after having completed our studies on
the Gospel of Mark and Luke,
we engage with The World We All Want course to discover together the big message of the whole Bible.
We run these public meetings @ the Café of the theatre we use for our Sunday meetings!

The World We All Want presents the gospel through the Bible story. It presents the biblical worldview that people need if they are to understand the work of Christ.
Often presentations of the gospel are individualistic, focusing on an individual's relationship with God. It then becomes difficult to teach people about the church except in functional terms or terms than contradict the message of grace. The focus of the Bible, however, is on God's plan to create a people who are his people.


Tomorrow with Stefano 
we'll continue with Session Two: 
Jesus shows us God's new world -
Mark chapters 5 and 8.

The course begins by engaging with people's desire for a better world, showing how God promises such a world in the Bible and how Jesus gave us a glimpse of that world. This provides a natural point of contact with people; a common aspiration.
It establishes at the beginning of the course a reason why the Bible story is so important. As the course develops, however,
it makes it clear that this world cannot be human-centred,
it must be God-centred.
