16-20 August 2010
The Faith Mission Bible College in Edinburgh is hosting this - their first Summer School of Christian Studies
This is a great opportunity to spend 5 days doing some stimulating
study in 5 different topics, taught by 5 gifted teachers who are
passionate and knowledgeable about their subjects
Make the most of a full board and accommodation option
or come as a 'day student'
Who knows - you might want to come full-time!
Sandy Roger: Praying the Jesus Way
Jesus' teaching about prayer is fairly well known, but what about his
actual practice of prayer? It is clear that prayer formed a large part
of Christ's own devotional life and we will be taking a look at how,
where and when he prayed. As far as possible, we want to listen in on
Jesus at prayer and learn from the Master about this necessary
discipline.
Ian Balfour: Denominations - The Legacy of the Reformation
In the month that Scottish evangelicals commemorate the 450th
anniversary of the Protestant Reformation coming to this country, we
will explore the lasting significance for us, even today. The 16th
century Reformers' right (and duty) to search the Scriptures for
themselves may have led to different denominations, but is that a price
worth paying for the right to the personal interpretation of Scripture?
Heather Holdsworth: An Introduction to Spiritual Formation
Like childbirth, the process of forming the image of Christ in
believers is neither instantaneous nor painless (Galatians 4v19). In a
spiritual climate where the journey is as critical as the destination,
this course will unpeel layers of thinking and history to discover the
well-laid paths to soul transformation.
John Shearer: Amos - The Triumph of Hope
Amos was called to exercise a faithful prophetic ministry at a time
when God's people were unfaithful. He was an unpopular preacher,
destined to bring a unpopular message. The people had never had it so
good materially, but were at an all time low spiritually. It sounds all
gloom and doom, but when God is at work there is always hope.
John Brand: The Truth about THE TRUTH
What grounds do we have for confidence in the Bible and why is it
important to have such confidence? This series of lectures will look at
and examine the traditional Christian beliefs about the inspiration,
authority, infallibility, inerrancy and sufficiency of the Scriptures.
