Proverbs 25 & 26

This week, Sam Gerges discusses in our Bible Study the selflessness required to live in contentment with others and how it impacts our spiritual life, dealing with disputes, spiritual growth and pacing ourselves to minimise burnout and the negative virtues which grow with sin. “Remove yourself from wickedness so that your heart can be established in righteousness” - Sam Gerges

Exploring the Liturgy

In the first talk of our Liturgical series, this mystery is analysed by Sam Gerges. He delves into Gods Salvation and cracks into bits of theology behind our 3 liturgies, what we can do to counter the liturgy becoming routine (or lifeless) and even the miracles which he has seen first hand- through the power of Communion. “The God who was before time.. that’s who we partake in.” - Sam Gerges

Bible Study- Proverbs 19 & 20

In this weeks Bible Study, Sam Gerges analyses how Laziness is a sin and how the Church is called to do good always. We peer into King David's views on Wealth and Luxury. We discuss how Anger with Discernment can benefit your spiritual life and those around you; and how God grows our Virtues.  Thank you to John Bastwrous for your sidetrack. God Bless you.  "Blows that hurt cleanse away evil, As do stripes the inner depths of the heart." - Proverbs 20:30

Bible Study- Proverbs 16-18

Sam Gergis takes the Bible Study Group through multiple concepts in these three Chapters: Proverbs was written by King Solomon who was known for his great wisdom. Proverbs can be split into 3 sections with these chapters in the middle section of the book. This section is about all the wise things King Solomon said which have been gathered by many and collated together. These chapters look at ‘Good vs Evil’, ‘Righteousness vs Evil’ and ‘Wisdom vs Folly’.

The Importance of Service

Kerollos A Nazeem takes us through Service. He explores different ways we may serve our God whether it maybe around our homes or simply helping our family, friends. He introduces this notion that, through our actions, we may serve the wider community everyday. We begin by defining Service.
