God has spoken!

“In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.” – Hebrews 1:1-2

A really big thank-you to everyone who came to our monthly prayer meeting for the work we do at Llandudno Youth for Christ. Last Sunday night (22nd Jan) was really great, and it was so encouraging to see so much support from so many different churches in the area.

Thank you!

Interestingly, last Sunday night, we also looked at ‘Prayer’ at our youth Bible Study. I love it when God orchestrates things so beautifully.

This coming Sunday within our ‘God is…’ series; we will be looking at ‘God is a speaker’, looking at the Bible.

Hence the title of this blog post.

God has spoken to us in His word.

Also, just as with last Sunday, God has again orchestrated things beautifully.

This Monday 23rd Jan, we held our ‘Monthly Meet‘ training night. We hold our monthly training evenings normally on the 3rd Monday of the month, from 7-9pm. It’s a great training night for youth workers, church ministers, parents, teachers to come along to; to be trained and resourced with how to better share the gospel with young people and help them grow in a relationship with God.

There is always tea, coffee and snacks to be had, and good fellowship and networking opportunities too.

The theme was a ‘Bible Study’ Masterclass: how to help young people study the Bible in such a way that they do not need copious amounts of text books, study guide and commentaries; simply the time and availability to read the Bible and hear what God is saying to them.

it was a great evening; and I personally loved it. So good getting into the Bible and seeing new things.

Hearing from God is always good. It is always life changing; and often we keep asking God to speak to us, when He already has through His word; the Bible.

This year, let’s be great listeners to God – let’s get into His word.

We have plenty of great resources at our disposal to help us do this. Christian bookstores such as Kingdom Krafts in Llandudno. Who I really must thank for donating a great resource to the work we do at Llandudno Youth for Christ: they gave us numerous copies of the ‘Action Bible’s’ book of Genesis.
A great resource to help get young people reading their Bibles. So thank you

The Bible Society is another great place to go for inspiration to encourage people to read the Bible. If you are a Welsh speaker there’s the Beibl.net.

And for those that are younger or young at heart, there’s the ‘What’s in the Bible‘ DVD’s and the funny but  Fabulous Bentley Brothers.

However you do it, let’s get to grips with God’s word in 2017!
