Basics Course

In a recent survey over ¾ of the population said that they believed in God, and over half said they prayed. The fact is that many people today have a spiritual dimension to their life but can’t find the volume control to turn it up. A young lady said to Neil recently,

“I believe in God, and I pray to him quite often, but I don’t know who I am praying to. I don’t really know what he is like.”

At St James we are keen to offer an open and relaxed environment where, without pressure, people can think through the claims of Jesus. On a regular basis we run a six week enquirers course which last for just over an hour. Its not boring with long faces but great fun, soul enlarging and can be life changing. Over the duration of the course it’s like receiving the six pieces of a jigsaw. At the end of the course you can fit them together to get a clear picture of Jesus, and then it’s up to you how you respond.

One student who recently completed the course said:

” The course answered some questions for me, but mainly it made me understand and see Christianity differently – less like ‘rules’ and more like a way of life. It made everything alot clearer for me ” … Christine

We usually have about 10 people on each course, made up of people who are full of questions, have just started to come to church, or are simply wondering what to do with their life.

Our next course is starting up on Tuesday nights at 8 Lady Chapel Close, from 2 February 2010.
