Spring Programme at Kesgrave Baptist Church

April - July 2008

Sunday Mornings:

The Book of Psalms presents us with some majestic psalms and we will spend three Sunday mornings looking at one of the longer psalms, Psalm 18, a song of deliverance and confidence in God.

Then we will be asking the question 'What is an Evangelical?' Evangelical Christians are not some recent invention, a splinter group within Christianity. We are Christians and Churches who seek to go back to the biblical roots of the Christian faith. At a time when evangelical truth is under attack in a post-modern world, we need to be sure of what we believe and proclaim.

In our family services we will be following the story of Elijah.

Sunday Evenings

Having finished Luke, we will not be leaving it yet! We will spend some time reflecting on the question of ministries of mercy. Have we neglected this vital ministry of the Church in our concern to proclaim the Gospel? Are Gospel proclamation and social concern two rivals or do they go together? We will seek to answer these questions as we revisit the parable of the Good Samaritan.

Then we will be coming back to the Book of Proverbs, tracing across the book some of the characters we meet in that forest of individual proverbs in the later chapters.

Midweek

Our Bible studies on Tuesday evenings will look at the attributes of God. Reflecting in the riches of God's character should be the best way to lead us into earnest prayer, and we have a great deal to be praying about together at this time.
