Northampton Study Weekends 2024

Module: Letters from Peter (NEW18)

“Set against a backdrop of struggles and persecution, Peter brings hope and strength to the community of Christ. This module examines these two letters, along with that from Jude, helping students to understand the message of Christ in a way that is relevant to the world today.”

Study Weekends

Our Study Weekends are excellent opportunities for students of Jesus to immerse themselves in periods of intense Bible study focusing on particular sections of Scripture. In addition to the classroom experience, there is also opportunity to complete additional assignments to fulfil the Module requirements for the British Bible School Applied Biblical Studies curriculum.

Your teachers for these weekends will be: Patrick Boyns, Jon Galloway, and John Griffiths.

Lunch on Saturday and light refreshments will be provided. Students are asked to make a voluntary contribution of £10 (or more!) each weekend to help cover our costs. Thank you.
