Green Pastures

Christianity Explored is for anyone who wants to investigate Christianity informally with a group of other people.

Whatever you have just a little experience of Church, Christians and the heart of God as recorded in the Bible, or none at all, this lifestream is for you. Everyone is welcome - from the most sympathetic Sunday schooler to the convinced atheist. We will respect your background, culture and beliefs and look forward to you sharing with us little or as much about yourself as you feel comfortable. 

A lovely meal is usually provided at the start of he evening, so don’t worry if you have to come straight from work. The course is run in several groups of 6-9 people, and after having a brief chat about the course material from the week before, there is a talk on the theme of that week. Then the groups have an opportunity to talk and discuss any questions that have arisen, and the evening ends at about 9pm. Of course, if you’d like, you’re welcome to stick around a bit longer for a coffee to discuss any further issues you might have. And you can ask any questions you want, at any time during the course. 

Each evening includes a talk designed to explain an aspect of Christian belief and to stimulate discussion. Hopefully you’ll find it challenging but also have some fun along the way! The group leaders will facilitate discussion and try to answer questions. 

The focus is on Mark’s Gospel, with its emphasis on who Jesus was, what His aims were, and what it means to follow Him, makes Christianity Explored quite different. 

Christians count it a real privilege to explain the truth and relevance of the Christian message. We don’t have all the answers but believe that we have exciting news to share about Jesus Christ. god’s plan for salvation is in a man.
