In addition to our long-standing teaching and training programmes, we are offering an increasing number of activities online – open to all with means of access. All this has essentially been made feasible through a general acceptance and growing familiarity with online conferencing. We offer:

• two weekly Online Bible Classes
• a weekly thought: ‘Something to think about’
• an occasional Friday Evening Quiz to provide some light-hearted, educational entertainment
• bi-monthly Saturday Evening Lectures Online on a variety of subjects. See here.

Our weekly Online Bible Classes

Our Online Bible Classes are open to anyone who wants to be a part of a live, online class, and who has access to a computer or similar object. You are free to be a part of whichever and however many classes you may choose. No enrolment or registration is necessary. Classes begin at 8 o’clock and access is generally provided up to 15 minutes before the hour. The links below will take you to the online Waiting Room from where you will be given access.

Where can I access these sessions?

Unlike our weekly thoughts: ‘Something to think about’ which we are continuing to host on YouTube, we’re hosting these classes on Zoom. You may want to download the Zoom client or app – you shouldn’t have to, but it would improve the experience if you did. Please find the schedule below. Clicking on the image or title should bring you to the relevant Zoom session. Thank you.

If you need help in accessing and using Zoom, please click here.

We have decided to record live online classroom sessions so as to make them available to those who wish to catch up or review the material presented in the classes. These will be available here.

Class schedule for twelve weeks from 7th April 2025

Monday

8.00 pm ~ Paul’s First Letter to Corinth

Paul writes this letter to the Corinthians to address unique challenges within their community. It discusses various themes, including self-image, identity, pride, insecurity, sexuality, marriage, singleness, leadership, church gatherings, and the roles of men and women. We will explore the historical and sociological contexts of this letter as we seek to understand its relevance to followers of Jesus today.

Presenter: Jack Paton

Thursday

8.00 pm ~ The Time Between the Testaments

When we reach the close of the book of the prophet Malachi and turn the page to start Matthew’s account of the life of Jesus, some do not realise that we have jumped four hundred years. So what happened? The time between the testaments sees many changes, yet throughout we see that God is in control and, when the time was right, he sent his son to change everything.
