On the first weekend of September the annual September Bible School was held in Whitby.
The theme was ‘Now show me your glory’, exploring how seeing the glory of God impacts upon one’s approach to him in suffering, in worship, and in life as a whole. Simon Arscott, Martin Woodier and James Swanson were the main speakers. Caring for Life gave a presentation.
The glory of God is revealed as he draws near to people in suffering, aware of its pain as he has shared in it. Jacob, wrestling with God and suffering his hip being put out of joint, cried out that he would not let go until God blessed him. Similarly, all should cling to God in the midst of suffering, trusting him to bless.
