What the cross achieves

Right and Wrong

Here’s a talk from October 2007 entitled What the cross achieves. It goes right to the very heart of Christianity and is a good introduction to the Death of Christ.

Welcome to students

This Sunday (14 October 07) at Emmanuel is a good week to visit us if you are student within reach of Bramcote!  Every student who comes this week to our Sunday meeting at 10.30 will get a free lunch hosted at the home of one of our church families.

If you are at Nottingham Uni, meet us on Friday evening at our stand at the CU’s Churches Fair at 9.00-10.00pm in Room B23 in the Maths and Physics building.

Two Ways to Live

Two Ways to Live is a simple way of explaining what Christians believe.  It can be learnt as a basic outline using six pictures which make it easy to remember.  Plus there’s a Bible verse that shows where each step in this outline comes from.

At Emmanuel, we’ve been running a training course to learn Two Ways to Live which is helping us to have a thorough knowledge of what the gospel is, and the ability to share it with someone else clearly and naturally when the opportunity arises.

Know and Tell the Gospel

Here is our Book of the Term. A great read to equip us all to understand the heart of what we believe, and to be confident to explain it to others.

There are lots of questions that quickly come to mind when we think about sharing our faith with others. Just what is ‘the gospel’ anyway? Is it my job to explain it to people? What is God’s role and what is mine? Where does church fit in? Why is evangelism so often so hard? And how can we be less scared?
