The second of our new monthly Prayer and Praise powerpoints, with a few pointers to inform you in your praying for the work of the College, is now available (click here). If you could use this yourself or even encourage your church fellowship to take 5 minutes a month in their Sunday or midweek meeting to pray for us we would be enormously grateful. If you would like to receive the new powerpoint each month, just drop us an email and we will be happy to oblige. Thank you and the Lord bless you.
There’ still time – but only just!

- Genesis 1-11 (Tuesdays 9.30 – 10.30am)
- Eschatology (Tuesdays 11.00am – 1.00pm)

- Angels, Demons and Spiritual Warfare (Wednesdays 2.00 – 4.00pm)
Revelation
In general, people have one of two opposite and extreme approaches to Revelation – they either become obsessed and preoccupied with it or they avoid it as much as they possibly can; they either become caught up with, and even dogmatic, about the interpretation of the symbolic nitty-gritty and detail, or they find the whole thing so perplexing and confusing that they simply keep away.
In this module we will work our way through this last book of the Bible, making sense of its complex structure and contents, but do so in a way that will be edifying and spiritually profitable.
We will help you become familiar with the teaching and truths of Revelation and have an understanding of its nature and structure. You will gain a real appreciation of the assuring message of apocalyptic literature and of God’s sovereignty, especially in times of testing and trial and you will be equipped to interpret and apply Revelation in a hermeneutically correct and consistent way.
The course will be taught virtually over zoom n ten Monday evenings from 7.00 – 9.00pm, starting on Monday 13th January.
There are two ways to get involved:
- You can audit the course – simply taking part, enjoying the teaching and online fellowship, and benefitting from lots of notes and materials
- you can submit assessments – completing an assignment for marking and gaining EBC study credits
The cost is:
- auditing option: £140 (20 hours of teaching @ £10 per hour)
- assessments option: £200 (20 hours @ £10 per hour)
Please note that fees must be paid in advance. Registration is essential and can be done here.

We Need Your Prayers!
Perhaps the most important way in which anyone or any church can support the work of EBC is by praying, and we are so grateful for the many people and churches that do exactly that on a regular basis, but we are always looking for new intercessors and are also keen to help you pray by keeping you informed.
Would you considering asking your church to take even just 5 or 10 minutes each month to pray for us? Each month we are going to produce a brief powerpoint presentation, highlighting just a few points for prayer and for praise, and we would be thrilled if you could use this yourself or as part of your church’s prayer meeting? We’ll make it available towards the end of each month and if you would like to receive it automatically when it becomes available, please contact us and we’ll add you to the subscription list.
January’s edition is now available and can be downloaded here.
