Divided we fall? :: salvation

We'd like to introduce you to a new monthly venture that is starting tomorrow at the Duke of Gloucester pub in Crewe. We want to create a place for Christians from all churches (or none) in the area to meet up and socialise while discussing some of the really thorny issues of the faith in a friendly way. If you'd like to come then we'd love to see you at 8pm, either tomorrow or another week - it will be on the first Thursday of each month.

There won't be a talk or anything like a sermon, but we'll provide a sheet of thought-provoking quotes and scriptures to help get conversations flowing. We are starting with an Easter themed debate; just how narrow or broad was Jesus' redeeming act? I've attached the quotes to this email so you can have a look beforehand, or if you can't come but are interested anyway! There should be something in there that you can agree with and disagree with; let's unravel it together.

Here are the topics that we'll be covering in future events up to the summer:

May 6th :: The Bible
June 3rd :: Evolution
July 1st :: Sexuality

Glass Painting

This week we'll be glass painting. If you have any old glasses or bottles that you'd like to jazz up - maybe an Easter present?... - then bring them along. Of course we'll be looking for God in this activity too (though not in the bottles themselves - that would make him a Genie lol!)

V for Vendetta

This month's film is V for Vendetta. It is set in an imaginary near future where Britain is ruled by a fascist, totalitarian regime but I don't know much more than that! It is rated 15 for strong violence and some bad language.
