You, Me and the Bible is a resource to help two or three friends to sit down together and discover the central message of the Bible. Spread across six sessions with a simple format – it's a great tool for sharing the Gospel!

We give thanks to God for the life and work of Donald Robinson, former Archbishop of Sydney, who passed away last Friday.
"Many speak of Robinson’s integrity, his capacity to separate the principle from the personal, and his ability to not hold grudges as factors that won him ‘admiration from both sides.’ We owe him more than we can tell." Rory Shiner

We need to live and act expectantly, believing that the gospel does what God says it does. But how can we keep this up in a sin-filled world?

Have you ever wondered whether God gave Adam and Eve free will? Or what 'free will' even means? Have you ever wondered whether God influences us to make the decisions we make day to day? And if he does, how exactly he does it? Have you ever wanted to know what the Bible means when it says some are chosen or predestined? Is that good news or bad news for us?
If you have been a Christian for any length of time, you have probably wondered about these questions. In this Little Black Book on predestination, Scott Petty brings his trademark humour and clarity to a topic Christians often get tied in knots about.

Sydney-siders, Priscilla and Aquila Centre have a great seminar coming up this Monday night with Phillip Jensen.

Somehow, we can spend much of our lives ignoring the biggest question there is. What's the point of life? Why are we here? And what should we do with our time? The answers to these questions are big, but they don't need to be scary. Scott Petty goes to the heart of the matter while also answering some of the common questions young people have about life.

Did you read Christian books in the past but have long since given up? Start reading again by... getting rid of your books?! 😱

Humility is like mist... we try so hard to be humble only to have it evaporate the moment we examine it! How do we work on something so elusive? Attack it side-on by going after pride instead.

A very happy Father's Day from all our team!

Scott Petty's new blog is a great way to further the conversation started in the Little Black Books series. Take a look at his first post on whether we can say "no" to God's love.

We need to do better with evangelism, but don't think you need to come up with all the ideas. Find the best of the best—and then steal it. Rip it off. Take it and bring it into your context and figure out if it works there.

Do men have nothing to learn from a woman in ministry? Not at all! Here's how Tracey Gowing biblically passes on lessons about leadership and manhood to men attending university.

"Romans 8 doesn't pretend that life is a bed of roses. It contains a healthy realism about the Christian life. There is no promise of an unachievable perfectionism this side of glory, no promise of heaven on earth. But neither am I left with a pessimistic Christianity where I am always filled with doubt, always defeated by sin, never making progress. Throughout Romans 8, Paul emphatically and repeatedly affirms that neither sin nor suffering will drive a wedge between the lov...e of Christ and us."
Ray Galea opens up the wonders of this chapter and takes us to the heart of the Christian life.
