Lent Resources 2021
A special series of Lent resources – based around the refreshed God for All vision and its four themes – is available here, provided by Bishop Emma.
The resources include:
Sermon notes/sermons for each of the five Sundays of Lent, based on the lectionary Gospel reading for each Sunday, and introducing the four themes of the refreshed vision, Simple discussion materials/Bible study notes that follow up on each sermon (or could stand alone), and that could be used as part of a similar Lent course.
Bishop Emma said: “As part of our extensive consultations around the God for All refreshed vision, we committed to providing further resources that would be made readily available for everyone.
“My hope is that these resources will offer our church communities the chance to reflect further on how we can all follow daily, speak boldly, care deeply and tread gently, particularly in this period of Lent as we reflect, recommit and rededicate all we do to God.”
"The people walking in darkness have seen a great light." Isaiah 9:2a

Whether you are a motley bunch of mates or a bonafide church leadership team, embracing God's mission can sometimes be tricky to explore together. It can be a challenge to identify how God might be at work in the culture around us. Then working out what Christian community might look like in this space might be harder still.
TABLE is an innovative 5 week course based on 5 tablecloths beautifully designed to facilitate a learning conversation about missional community. A host simply needs to prepare a meal each week and place it on top of the tablecloth where all the content and questions are laid out imaginatively. Your team can chat, draw and scribble their way through a teambuilding process designed to be facilitative in mission.
