First Night for Discipleship Explored

Discipleship Explored got off to a great start on Wednesday evening at St James with 40 people present for the first session.

The course lasts eight weeks. Each session includes a meal, a video introducing the subject for the evening, and a time for discussion in small groups.

Our theme is Paul's Letter to the Philippians. This week we were looking at the first half of chapter 1 with a particular focus on verse  6: 'Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.'

That was a great reminder that God is at work in our lives, that he will never let us go. That he began a work in our lives the day we came to believe in Christ and that work (in the present,still unfinished) will be brought wonderfully and unfailingly to completion at the end of all things.

That was a great encouragement to us all as disciples of Jesus,and it made a great start to the course, which continues next Wednesday at St James 7pm.

(PS It's not too late to join, just email or phone the church office to let us know you are coming).
