Theme: Staying Single
Aim: To explore the pros and cons of being single and how to cope with temptation.
We are all made for relationships with other people. Many people therefore find it difficult, or see themselves as a failure, if they are not in an intimate relationship. This can often lead to poor choices in our lives that gets us into trouble.
Our priority should therefore always be our relationship with God. If we get this right, the rest will be much easier.
Key Bible Verse: Luke 10:27
Theme: Hope
Aim: To recognise the hope that we have, and realise its importance to others
We have an important gift from God. It’s hope. It’s the knowledge that God is in charge, and that he’s for us, he cares about us, that he has plans for us. This week we’re going to focus on remembering that hope that we carry inside of us, and realising it’s power to transform lives, personally, locally and globally. We’ll be considering some organisations using the word ‘hope’ in their titles too: the challenge laid out by the Hope 08 initiative and how that continues locally, and an inspiring strategy from the organisation Hope HIV.
Key Bible Verses: Jeremiah 29:11-14
We’ve got an exciting opportunity to join up with other local churches to go to Soul Survivor this year. We’d love you to be involved, so for more information read the letter.
