Lent Course 2011 - THE UNRECONCILED

Anne Richards and MTAG have provided all the materials for an exciting new Lent course on the theme of The Unreconciled, looking at the ways in which people all around us in our society get marginalised, forgotten and overlooked. They are there in our families, churches and neighbourhoods. What does Christian reconciliation have to do with their experience and what could we do to be more aware of their needs?

Through CTBI, in conjunction with BBC Radio 4 and Local Radio, we have provided comprehensive, illustrated resources for the Sunday before Ash Wednesday right through to the first three days of Holy Week. You can use the resources for individual reflection and study or as part of a group.

The resources, on individual themes such as Self and Others, Wounds and Healing and Condemnation and Forgivenes include Bible study, prayer and reflection and a focus on how we follow Jesus. We include questions, activities and things to do to engage your local community. There's also a challenge - what are you going to do to make a change?

Who are we?

We are a group of enthusiastic and creative mission theologians and practitioners whose job is to provide the churches with resources to deepen Christian faith and to help Christians share their faith with others. We have publications and resources on Spirituality, Theology, Reconciliation, Evangelism and Mission.

We have a particular interest is in the relationship between the gospel we are called to proclaim and the western culture where we proclaim it. So MTAG publications and resources are relevant to anyone, including spiritual seekers, interested in Christian faith and gospel and culture issues.

Check out our ON STREAM bulletin for current MTAG projects that can help resource you or your church. We also have a website: www.spiritualjourneys.org.uk with a range of content for you to download and use.
