Discussion for Monday 12th April

 

This Monday's discussion is led by Rob. He writes:

Bible discussion group- Monday 12 April at 6.30pm- RESURRECTION. A poster outside a church we passed going to visit Sheena’s parents yesterday said: ‘He’s up, He’s out, He’s round about’, which seemed quite a startling reminder that we’ve just passed Easter Sunday. What better time for the group to consider the resurrection? Whatever your views, there can be little doubt after 2000 years, the narrative of the resurrection still retains its elemental power to encourage, console, outrage or dismay.

We’ll look at two texts- Mark 16 v. 1-8, and John 20 v. 1-18. Of course, you might want to also look at the narratives in Matthew and Luke, chapters 28 and 24 respectively, as well as some of the post resurrection appearances of Jesus. From the beginning we know we will not agree, so it seems important for this topic above all, that we abide faithfully to the ethos of this group – kindness, respect and tolerance of diverse views. Is the resurrection story important to you, and if so, why and in what way? Or is it not important to you, and if so why and in what way? Perhaps for this session more than some, check your opinions in at the door, prepare to listen and then let your heart speak.

Robert Oulton is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
