- We are a group of Christians seeking to learn from those that have gone before us. We read & discuss books written by the old Reformers and Puritans in order to grow in our understanding of Scripture and love for and devotion to Christ.
There's a book to read & discuss, but feel free to join us even if you haven't had time to read it. It's open to any theological conversation & discussion, not just that resulting from the book. - Privacy Type:

24 Oct., Trof Fallowfield, 10am
The Ecumenical Creeds: The Apostle's Creed, The Nicene Creed, The Council of Chalcedon, & The Athanasian Creed

The Lutheran Standards - the Augsburg Confession, the Smalcald Articles, the Epitome of the Formula of Concord
These all come from the Book of Concord, which can be accessed for free at www.bookofconcord.org
