Lent Bible Study Course - Session 2 - Into the Temple

for 1 hour
Holy Trinity
High Street Amblecote Stourbridge, DY8 4DL, United Kingdom
Our Lent study course is 'The Final Week' by John Birch, who is a regular contributor to the International Bible Reading Fellowship notes. He writes:
"These five studies cover the very busy last few days of Jesus’ life through the Cross to the Resurrection, mainly using the texts from Matthew, Mark and Luke. We look at the people, places and decisions made that culminated in the Easter that we celebrate each year. There are lots of discussion questions along the journey to enable users to think a little deeper about the story, and suggestions for prayer in the lead up to Easter. This is a story about injustice, doubt, fear, pain and, ultimately, degrading death. It tells how God experienced these things in the same way as ordinary human beings. But the final theme is victory - the victory of Christ over death - and this is why the story cannot end at the Cross and be separated from the story of the Resurrection."

All are welcome to join the group in church for all or some of the remaining sessions, on the following dates, starting at 7.30pm:
Wednesday 15th March - Into the Temple
Monday 20th March - Preparations
Monday 27th March - Arrest and Trial
Wednesday 29th March - Crucified and Risen

Please "Get in touch" if you would like a free copy of the course booklet as a PDF for your iPad or other tablet device.

Holy Trinity

You and your family and friends are most welcome to join us for any of the services and events listed on these pages.  We look forward to getting to know you. 

We are a liberal catholic congregation within the Church of England, here to serve all the people of Amblecote - those who are already Christians, those of other faiths, and those of none.   Our church building was originally erected for the local glassmaking community.   Nowadays a number of our members come from other church backgrounds and/or other parts of the town, but we are drawn together by our love of the Lord Jesus and a desire to do things well, to the glory of God.    Our worship style is recognisably "high church," enhanced by colour, movement, candlelight, music and often incense, with an emphasis on the Sacraments.   As the hymnwriter says:

    "O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness,
    bow down before him, his glory proclaim;
    with gold of obedience and incense of lowliness,
    kneel and adore him - the Lord is his name."
