Our free 5-week online Lent course starts Thursday 25 February

13/1/2021

We are delighted to be running a free online Lent course.
​
This will run for five weeks from Thursday 25 February 2021, with sessions starting at 4pm and ending at 5:30pm.

The Mystery of Everything is a new and original Lent course by Hilary Brand, which takes the multi-awarding winning film about Stephen Hawking, The Theory of Everything, as its starting point.

The course explores ways in which the mysteries of the universe and of everyday life - and the acceptance that we have more questions than answers - can reinvigorate our faith and spiritual journey.

The course is based around five weekly group sessions entitled:
​
  1. The experience of wonder
  2. The enigma of weakness
  3. The complexity of relationships
  4. The encounter with frailty
  5. The hope beyond brokenness

Each session includes an extract from the film, group discussion questions and a meditation. There are also short introductory and follow up chapters for individual reading each week, and a chapter of Bible passages for further daily reading.

Rev Ulrike Bell will be running this course via Zoom.

There will also be an advanced screening of the whole movie via Zoom on Saturday 20 February at 7pm.
​
The sessions will not be recorded or streamed live, and you can switch off your camera if that makes you feel more comfortable.

These sessions are free. Advance purchase of the course book by Hilary Brand is recommended but not necessary.

For more information and to obtain the Zoom link, please contact ulrike.bell@btinternet.com.
