Reading the Bible with the Global Church: Redcliffe Lecture in Bible and Mission
Opening our eyes to see
how God speaks worldwide
Wednesday 30 March from 7.00pm to 9.00pmDelivered by Eddie Arthur, Executive Director of Wycliffe Bible Translators
Put on in partnership with Bible Society, Wycliffe Bible Translators, Keswick Ministries and Biblefresh
We all come to the Bible with our own perspectives, insights and blind spots, which is why reading it with others is vital. But often the groups we are part of come from similar cultural backgrounds. Are there things we could be missing?
Imagine being part of a Bible Study group made up of believers from Britain, Bangladesh, Brazil, Burkina Faso and Bulgaria. How might this open our eyes to read God’s Word afresh?
At this year’s lecture in Bible and Mission Eddie Arthur will explore what it means to read the Bible alongside believers around the world. There will also be discussion groups led by church leaders to unpack what this might look like in a local congregation context.
