The Radiant Face of Moses

We think we might possibly - who know for sure - be close to reaching the end of Exodus this week.

Maybe.

So it's time to tidy up the loose ends of the story before we plunge headlong into the mysteries of Leviticus.

So... what's all this about Moses having a radiant face? What went on up the mountain?

If Jesus has opened the way for us to meet with God "face to face", why don't we all have shiny faces when we come out of the weekly service?
Discuss.

Is Idolatry The Most Neglected Topic and Worst Sin?

This Friday we return to the latter part of Exodus and discover that while Moses was chatting with God about the small print in the law, the Israelites were busy sorting out another god for themselves.

This story from thousands of years ago seems distant and unrelated to us. But is it?

Is idolatry even considered a sin nowadays? We even have programmes called "Pop Idol" etc.

Is it, however, the worst sin of all - putting something else before God?

A Place for Women?

So there are to be women Bishops in the Anglican church. But this Friday we go back - further than the vote in synod - further back than the first woman Prime Minister - further back than women getting the vote. In fact, further back than Exodus!
A little step back into Genesis this week and all will be revealed in the pub. (By a man of course)
Meanwhile, comments welcome on women Bishops and related topics...

Celebrate!

This Friday we will be chatting about a brief mention in Exodus of three festivals that God commanded Israel to celebrate. What were they all about?

Join us at 7.30 for 8pm start in the usual inn. Oh, and we will be sharing the feast of the new covenant! (That's bread and wine)
