Welcome to Rule of Life

As well as following the Bishop's summer reading challenge you may like to encourage your church's young people to follow their own version with this challenge designed by Suzanne Finch, from Christ Church Newburgh and St James Westhead.

Join Bishop Paul in this year’s Summer Challenge reading the book of Jonah. Sign up to this course and you will receive weekly emails encouraging you to read sections of Jonah alongside the companion book - Journeying with Jonah: the struggle to find yourself’ by the Roman Catholic scholar Denis McBride. Find out more about the challenge and how you can get involved.

Having understood the reasons why Christians give we need to think about the different ways in which Christians can give. This course offers reflections on different ways that you may want to consider giving as part of your own Rule of Life journey.

As Christian disciple you will have experienced feeling what God can do for you and what God wants from you. As a disciple, you will want others to experience this. The best way for others to know Jesus and God is to tell them your story and invite them to find out more through coming to church. .
