Family Event: "Walk Thru the Bible" 9-10 September

If you're like me then one of the things you think about is how to communicate the great story of God that is the Old Testament to people of different ages and backgrounds who have never heard it before. What are big themes and the simple keys that unlock great swathes of text? What do I need to know so that I / we can experience the journey through the Old Testament as a voyage of discovery rather than a frustrating road to nowhere? And how do I do that without making it cheesy or condescending?

Well...

I have it on good authority that Walk Through the Bible, have organised a family-friendly event to do that very thing - walk through the Old Testament.

If you're someone who wants to get a grip of the Old Testament either for personal enrichment or so as to teach / talk about it with others, then this is your event. Invite your friends, invite you family, invite your friends' families...

The cost is £14 per adult, including a manual to take away. However, if the cost is too much, you can just pay what you can afford. They do need to know numbers in advance, so let me know if you'd like to be a part of it and I will forward you the contact details.

It will take place over two days: Friday 9th September 7pm - 9.30pm, then Saturday 10th September 9am – 1pm @ St Peter's Church, Bradfield, RG7 6EU.

I can't make the Saturday morning, but would like to get to the Friday night if they'll let me.

I attend this course about 15 years ago and it was excellent. Gave me a good overview.
