We are beginning a new series of devotions on a Sunday evening. We will start in the text of Matthew 5 verses 1-12 and look at the Beatitudes before moving on into the Sermon on the Mount.
These devotions will be brief 10 minute devotions shared as part of our regular pattern of prayer and praise with two purposes in mind. Firstly, to bless and encourage those who join with us on a Sunday evening from Scripture. Secondly, they are an opportunity both for those with some experience of giving a talk and for those who would like to have the experience to bring a devotion in a public setting, sharing from a short passage of scripture, what they have learned in their personal study and reflection on the text.
In preparation for this our Associate Pastor Phil Bailey gave an introduction to the Beatitudes and shared some notes on how to prepare such a devotion. Those notes are shared here in 2 documents that you can download and use to help you in your personal devotions or in preparation for sharing a devotion with us.
The new series launches Sunday evening 5th October as we look together at Matt 5 vs 1 & 2.
