Christianity Explored

Come and join us at Christianity Explored! Christianity isn't just a set of ideas, rules, or philosophies. At its heart, it's about a person to know - a person who shows us exactly what God is like, and what he thinks. Christianity is about Jesus Christ. Over seven sessions, Christianity Explored takes you through the Gospel of Mark - an eyewitness testimony about who Jesus is, why he came, and what it means for us today. We'll watch a short film together that will kick off the conversation, then continue it in our own groups. Come with your questions, but be��prepared - The answers may surprise you... Christianity Explored will start on Thursday 16 April at 7.30-9pm in F4, Emmanuel Centre. Everyone is welcome. Sign up below. For more information please
