Certificated Courses for this term:
An introduction to the New Testament.
Starting Tuesday 16th October at Trinity Methodist Church, Monkgate. Tutors: Francis Hutchins and Gary Patchen. Cost £90
New Testament Introduction was our most popular Unit in our first year. It is a good starting point for those aiming for the Certificate as most Christians know the New Testament reasonably well both in structure and in content, without even realising it.
The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit course includes three main areas; the Spirit of God, the Spirit Within Us and the Spirit in the Church.

The Book of Revelation
Starts: Tuesday 27th November for 3 weeks at St. Cuthbert’s Centre, Peasholme Green. Tutor: John Wilson. Costs: £15
A three week overview of the last book of the bible, looking at the different ways in which it is interpreted and how those interpretations shape our thinking about both the present and the future.
