Leviticus In A Day

by with No Comment AnnouncementsIn a DayNews

Our third FREE monthly seminar will take place on Thursday 26th March when John Brand will guide us through Leviticus in a Day.

Commentator Gordon Wenham writes, “Leviticus used to be the first book that Jewish children studied in the synagogue.   In the modern Church it tends to be the last part of the Bible anyone looks at seriously.”  In general, Christians are put off this book because of the details regarding rituals and sacrifices and because they can’t easily see the relevance for today.  Howevere, John will show us how much our appreciation of the work of Christ and the Gospel is deepened and enriched by becoming familiar with this book.

Once again, there is NO CHARGE for the webinar, but registration is essential and can be done here. We will again make available a small study booklet to accompany the day, with brief notes and space to add your own notes.  If you are not able to join the webinar live, a full recording will be available shortly afterwards.

We would love you to join us for this webinar and would also be grateful if you would make it as widely known as possible.

EBC Webinars: Esther in a Day

by with No Comment AnnouncementsIn a DayNewsWebinars

“Excellent”, “exceptionally brilliant”, “enormously helpful, and certainly the clearest and most detailed explanation of this most important book that I have ever heard, particularly in such a short timescale”.  These were some of the responses received after our first monthly webinar last week when John Brand taught through Romans in a Day.   Study booklets are still available for £6.50 (inc p&p) and a recording is available here.

We are now looking forward to our second monthly webinar on Thursday 26th February, from 9.30am,  when John will be teaching through the book of Esther in a day.  One of only two books in the Bible in which the name of God is not mentioned, Esther is not only a dramatic and powerful historical record but is full of lessons about God’s providence and purposes, not only on the national and international scene, but also in individual lives.  There will be opportunities for asking questions as we go through the day.

Once again, there is NO CHARGE for the webinar, but registration is essential and can be done here. We have produced a small study booklet to accompany the day, with brief notes and space to add your own notes, and this is now available for £5.50 inc p&p.  You can order it when you register or by emailing us.

We would love you to join us for this webinar and would also be grateful if you would make it as widely known as possible.

New From EBC!

by with No Comment AnnouncementsIn a DayNews

We’re excited to tell you about a new ministry from EBC: Bible Books in a Day, and it’s free!

If you’re one of those people who misses some in-person fellowship and study and would like the opportunity to meet with others and immerse yourself in Scripture, then this is for you.  Once a month we are going to meet and study one whole book of the Bible. As well as an opportunity for in-person fellowship, the day will also be livestreamed on zoom so that wherever you live in the world you can benefit. Study notes will be provided, as will refreshments throughout the day. Please bring your own food for lunch, or come prepared to buy food in one of several outlets within a few minutes’ walking distance of the church building.

There is no cost for attending these monthly seminars but we would welcome donations to the College to help cover our costs and develop the work of the College.

Our first ‘in a day’ seminar will be on Thursday 29th January from 10am – 4.00pm, when EBC Principal John Brand will take us through Romans, highlighting the overall theme of the book and seeing how all the parts contribute to the whole of what is surely one of the most important books in the Bible.

The venue is EBC’s official base – Grace Community Church, 39 Greendykes Road, BROXBURN EH52 5AF – courtesy of Pastor Ryan and the fellowship there.   Broxburn is just 12 miles from the West End of Edinburgh, 5 miles from Edinburgh Airport, and 5 miles to the north of Livingston. There is a large free car park just a few yards from the church premises which are upstairs, above an Undertaker’s business, and to which, unfortunately, there is no disabled access.

Registration is at https://romansinaday.eventbrite.com

Did we mention that this is FREE, although donations will be welcome.
