Sunday evening speakers
Our sermon series this term takes its cue from the Table at the east end of Chapel, which bears the inscription ‘Nobiscum Deus’, ‘God with us’. This alludes to the great prophecy of the coming of Jesus Christ recorded in Isaiah VII:14: ‘The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel’ (which means, ‘God with us’). In the person of Jesus Christ, God reaches out to us in love; he dwells with us, and brings us his light and life. Our speakers this term will reflect on this divine dynamic, as we explore how God might help us to make sense of the complexities of our lives, studies and experiences.
