Origins: The Big Questions

From Sunday 6th September through to Christmas, we are embarking on a new teaching series called: ORIGINS – The Big Questions.

A lot of us have some big questions: Is there a God? Why do people suffer? Where does evil come from? Does science negate God? What about evolution? How old is the earth? and so on. Digging into the first eleven chapters of Genesis, we are going to try and answer these questions and others. We will cover 10 main areas, looking at the origins of life, male and female, work and rest, the nations, evil, covenant and grace.


Alongside our Sunday morning ORIGINS program we have also scheduled two Q&A nights called, ‘The Big Questions’ that will take place in the Vivo Cafe Bar at 8pm on Wednesday 23rd September & 14th October. These nights will be informal opportunities both for members of the Church, and for any friends you have who might be interested, to ask questions that arise from talking about these massive issues. The Q&A will be done both by asking questions verbally and by texting in. No questions will be ruled out as too tricky or gritty. We hope to see you and your friends there!
