July Prayer Prompts
Since the beginnings of time people have asked, ‘Is there a God?’ And if
there is, what’s he like?’ Here we have the answer: JESUS IS GOD!
Why not take some time to dip in to one of the Gospels and remind
ourselves of the amazing love and power he showed in his brief time on
Earth? – For he offers us the same gifts now, just as fully, through the
Holy Spirit. [more] |

Pray Now -
Daily Devotions
Available in the
Church vestibule, priced £5.00. Pray Now 2008 offers a sampling of how we may
read some of the Scriptural resources. There is a gentle insistence that
with Scripture before us, the reading task must engage us. As
has been famously remarked, the books of the Bible read us as
much as we read them, and the stories therefore are not so
much long, long ago and far, far away as surprisingly relevant
to our personhood. We do well to linger with the thoughts they
evoke. Prayer, after all, is the readiness for God to
communicate with us, and not simply time for us to do all the
talking. |
