There may also be special reading groups held for New Church Day, Easter and Christmas, please refer to the calendar for details on these

See our calendar to see when the next reading group is, and get readings that will be covered in each lesson

What to expect?

Each reading group is very relaxed, will have a specific passage we are reading. It is recommended that you read the passage before the reading group. We will then be reading the passage again in reading group and then discuss the ideas and topics raised in the passage and what it means to you.

It is a great opportunity to learn as a group and understand different ideas that people may have when understanding the bible and writings.

Run by Grant

Twice a Month - Tuesdays 19:30 - 20:30

This class will help people get much more out of reading The Word – that is my hope!
We'll work from a draft of a book that I am writing: 'Parting the Clouds of Scripture' (provisional title).
Attenders will have a chance to practice the principles that I've drawn from the teachings of the New Church.
As ever, the class will be a wonderful time to gather together around the teachings of the Lord's Word.
Please use form below if you plan to come, so that we can send you the reading for the first class:

    Divine Love and Wisdom
    Divine Love and Wisdom is one of the more philosophical of Swedenborg’s theological works and has attracted famous readers such as William Blake and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Swedenborg looks at the Creator and Creation, the role of man and his relationship to both the Divine and the world around him—his fellow men and the animal, vegetable and mineral worlds. This edition includes a brief Preface from the translators and an Index. (Summary taken from - https://www.swedenborg.org.uk/product/divine-love-and-wisdom/)

      We gather to explore the Bible via Zoom. We are currently reading Daniel. All are welcome.

      Daniel
      Dr Andy Dibb writes - I am planning to offer an online doctrinal study of the book of Daniel. This is something I did some years ago, and have been planning to edit it in retirement, hopefully for publication, so this will be an excellent opportunity to review the material. Daniel has twelve chapters, so I am envisioning a twelve-part series.
