Sunday 4th September - Urban gospel (Cat Patrick)

The message of Christianity and of Jesus is often thought to be irrelevant and uninteresting. Christians frequently talk as though the good news only addresses the issue of sin and how to avoid punishment.

On the contrary, however, the message of Jesus is a radical one that speaks volumes to our urban culture. Jesus taught and passed on a holistic message that speaks into our lives about forgiveness, community, our thinking about the environment, poverty, restored relationships, hope for the future and more.

In this seminar, we'll explore the gospel in an urban setting - what the unchangable message of the gospel is, how it speaks to the issues that people face everyday and how we can creatively present it to a generation of people who think it has nothing to say.

3-4:30pm

Cat Patrick is part of the ministry team at St Jude's in Parkville, and is deeply committed to helping people understand how much Jesus has to say to our inner city culture and to every part of our lives.
