Let the Bible be itself

The following lecture would be well worth attending.
  • University of Glamorgan Chaplaincy Lecture 2008 - 'Let the Bible be itself'
  • November 24, 2008 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
  • Chaplaincy Centre
The guest lecturer is the Rev. Ray Vincent, Baptist minister, member of the Chaplaincy team and author.
This lecture will be based on Ray's newly published book and will address the origin and nature of the Bible, its relationship with the Christian faith, and some of the ways in which it is interpreted and used. It will propose a realistic, critical and appreciative approach to reading it
Ray says, 'people often use their Scriptures as instruments of conservatism and conformity rather than as sources of inspiration to think new thoughts and face new issues'.
Refreshments will be served.
RSVP: The Chaplaincy, 20 Llantwit Road, Treforest, CF37 1DL chaplaincy@glam.ac.uk 01443 654060

This is so good! We sometimes too academic & end up attacking those who do not agree with us, and then end up as Bigots!
