Monday evening madness

If you see this man – do not approach him!  Only joking, this photo was a moment of fun in our Monday evening Bible Study for homeless people.  As usual God turned up in power and we had a great time in his presence.  We had five of our regulars come along plus one more who popped in for a short while.

We started off with some hot dogs, made by Judy and Sarah.  We then looked at the parable of the lost son and talked about inheritance.

“How would you feel if somebody who you didn’t like inherited £10 million and a big house in the country?”

That got a few people talking.  We went on to discuss how salvation and a relationship with God, just like an inheritance, are neither earned nor deserved by those who receive them.  We then spent time praying for each person, for them to receive the full inheritance that God has stored up for them in Jesus.

We also helped one person practically with finding accommodation and help with addiction.  God seems to be doing great things through Monday evenings.  If you want to get involved, get in touch here: http://www.outsidelight.org/contact-outside-light.php.  And, no, crash helmets are not usually required, only a loving heart and faith that God will turn up.
