Lent Study Group

Every Wednesday at for 1 hour
St. James, Bix
Bix Hill Bix Henley-on-Thames, RG9 6BX, United Kingdom

Lent lasts five weeks and so it is roughly a tenth of a year. As such it can be seen as a 'tithe' to give to God more of our time and attention.

On Wednesdays in Lent, beginning Wednesday 21st February , a Lent study group will meet at St. James, Bix 3:00 - 4:00 p.m. to study the Creed. Everyone, including atheists, have beliefs that make life meaningful. These beliefs often go unexamined and unacknowledged. For example, the belief in 'justice' or 'fairness'.

Beliefs can often be rationally demonstrated, but not always empirically proved. Christians have beliefs that arise from God's revelation of himself. Short summaries of the Church's core beliefs are found in the two Creeds: Apostles and Nicene. On Wednesday afternoon in Lent we will examine what we believe and why, and we will discuss the struggles and questions we might have as we seek to understand our faith. All are welcome to what I hope will be an engaging and helpful discussion
