An in-depth theological study of the two most uniquely apocalyptic books in the Bible, Daniel (OT) and Revelation (NT). We will share perspectives, thoughts, and ideas, looking at how interpretations have varied significantly over the centuries.

PARTNERSHIP COURSES
A Life of Faith
Finding a spiritual rhythm in a busy life (Monthly Sessions)
What does it mean to be a Christian in the 21st Century?
How do we make what we believe matter in the whole of our lives? Each month we will be encouraged to consider different aspects of a life of faith – care for the environment, issues of injustice, different ways to pray, approaches to reading the Bible.
A variety of speakers will inspire us to be more confident that we are living each and every day as people of faith.
COMING SOON 2023
‘After being challenged to grow in my own understanding of the Bible I recently completed the GTS course, ‘Unlocking the Bible.’ It was so accessible, well-paced, and fitted in well with an already busy schedule. What an amazing resource, right on our doorstep!’
