Teaching

Jesus was a great communicator. He spent a great deal of his time teaching the crowds and instructing the disciples. When he commissioned his disciples it included the mandate to teach.

Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV)

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

At King’s we take teaching the Bible seriously. Hopefully that doesn’t mean that it’s without humour. It does mean that at our Sunday meetings and through courses we run that teaching the Bible is central. Sometimes we teach verse by verse, going through a book of the Bible. At other times we pick up themes to teach from. Often we produce notes to take away.

At our Sunday meetings after the time of worship the children go to their activities and one of our leaders speaks from the Bible.

Over the years we have taught through Bible books: Ephesians, 1 Thessalonians, Revelation, Mark. And we have taught on Bible characters: Elijah, David, Moses. We have covered themes and topics too: The City of God, Conversational Evangelism, Living a God-Centred Life. And there are one-off messages: A Message to the Mayor, the Da Vinci Code.

We often produce handouts for everyone to take away. That gives people the chance to think through what was taught and pray about issues that come up. It also means that small groups have something to talk through when they meet in the week. These can be found on our pages as a PDF.

Recordings of our Sunday teaching and the notes are available online go to 'Notes and downloads' for details.
