SUMMARY:Messages of Hope 2017
LOCATION:Motherwell

DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:\n\nThroughout the Bible there is a concept of God using messengers to comm
 unicate with his own people and others. Whilst he speaks directly to key in
 dividuals, those individuals are regularly used to convey the message to a 
 larger audience, like Moses and Jonah. As the New Testament unfolds, John t
 he Baptist’s message of repentance prepares the way for Jesus. Progressing 
 through the New Testament, we encounter a variety of messengers, people lik
 e Paul, Timothy and Titus, who take messages between churches. In Acts 15, 
 the church in Antioch selects some messengers to go to Jerusalem to explore
  the key question of gentile conversion. By the end of the council, the chu
 rch in Jerusalem selects Judas and Silas as messengers who travel to other 
 churches, telling them what has been agreed.\n
\n\nThis year at our Assembl
 y, October 26-27, we are asking churches to think of the people they send a
 s messengers rather than delegates! People whose primary role will be to sh
 are an encouragement, challenge, story or opportunity that flows from the m
 inistry of your local church. Messengers who can also return to your church
  with news, challenge and opportunities that have been discovered during ou
 r time together.\n
