The Romans Course

With video teaching by Andrew Ollerton (author of The Bible Course), and set against the stunning backdrop of Rome, this inspiring ten-week course explores Paul’s letter to the Romans, a letter which has had such tremendous influence and impact on Christians throughout the ages. With the help of dramatic reconstructions, and a participant’s guide, the course will take you on a deeper journey into the richness of the Christian message. Each week there will be time for discussion and reflection to help us all, whether we have been Christians for one year or fifty years, to gain a greater insight into the meaning of this vital letter for us today.
The course starts Wednesday 14th February, 7.30-9.00pm in Room 4 at Holy Trinity.  For further information, and to register your interest, please speak to Andrew Simpkins or email him on a.j.d.simpkins@btinternet.com.
