28-30 Oct: Teaching weekend with Desi Maxwell –

‘1 Corinthians and the Old Testament.'

 

Desi will take us back to the Old Testament to look at 1 Corinthians in the wider context of the whole Bible to get a deeper understanding of what it means to be set apart for a God-filled life.

Friday Evening

The Insecurity of Freedom (1 Cor 10)

Exploring the background of the wilderness Desi will draw out lessons for today from the experience of Israel. Like us they lived between a great redemptive intrusion of God in history and the climax of his promises.
 
Sunday morning

Thanks of the memories

A close look at the Hebraic concept of 'memory' and how it challenges and helps understand the act of 'remembering' at the Lord's table

 

Sunday evening

In Corinth In Christ

Grasping the place of the believer in the mega plan of God, standing in the overlap this age and the age to come.  What are the practicalities of this for those of living in Edinburgh and in Christ?
