Reviews

We followed several groups as they progressed through the eight-week course. Here’s what they had to say. 

Beth Dent – The Stowe Church, Swindon

Beth is very comfortable reading some books of the É«ÖÐÉ« but wanted to challenge herself a bit more. The course has helped her to understand the bigger picture and the relevance of the É«ÖÐÉ«.

Simon Ronald - Romford Baptist Church

Before the course, Simon struggled to read the É«ÖÐÉ« – from finding the time to understanding the ‘black holes’ of the Old Testament. After just eight weeks he found a new ‘respect’ for the É«ÖÐÉ«.

Graham and Caroline Moore

Graham and Caroline have run The É«ÖÐÉ« Course a couple of times for their church and for a post-Alpha group. For both groups, they found the course easy to host, educational and engaging.
