Growing in Faith A living relationship with God is never static. We all need time to think, talk, study, question, pray, and reflect on our experiences. This page
lists some of the ongoing opportunities to grow in faith at St Ninian's,
and
includes
links
to
sets
of
sermons
on
Bible
Basics,
the
Holy

and
Poetry

There is a Contextual Bible Study on the second Tuesday of the month between October and May. Further information can be found here. If you would like a general introduction to the bible, you will find the rector's sermons on Bible Basics here: Old Testament Basics New Testament Basics

A group of people meet on the first Monday of every month to discuss aspects of faith. Recently the group has been reading 'Tough Talk': one of the York Courses.

We
learn
about
the
liturgy
primarily
by
engaging
with
it
week
after
week,
so
that
the
words,
actions,
and
rhythms
of
the
church
year
can
sink
deep
inside
us.
But
sometimes
it
helps
to
step
back
and
think
about
why
we
do
what
we
do. Journey through Holy Week |

Last autumn, the rector and curate led a series of sermons called Time to Pray. Each week we considered a different method of prayer, and offered a card to help people to pray at home. The sermons and prayer cards are linked here: week 1 -- What is Prayer week 2 -- Praying with the Church: Daily Prayer week 3 -- Praying with Scripture: Lectio Divina week 4 -- Praying for Others: Intercession week 5 -- Praying with Scripture: Using Imagination week 6 -- Seeing God in our own Lives
