INTRODUCING APPRENTICES WITH JESUS
West Heath, Birmingham UK
“Walking and Worshipping in the Scriptures”
Welcome to ‘Apprentices with Jesus’, a place for those who find themselves on an unanticipated spiritual journey.
You may be on a journey to find the living God for the first time; you may have suddenly realised your life was going nowhere and that God is calling you to walk closer with Him; you may be ‘shut in’ or church may be inaccessible to you and you need to find a place of Christian fellowship; you may be adrift because of bad experiences of church; you may feel unsupported, dissatisfied, or even displaced because your church or your denomination is walking away from biblical truth and you’re starting to feel bereaved.
‘Apprentices with Jesus’ is a place to travel together ‘Walking and Worshipping in the Scriptures’ even while we’re still facing these uncertain situations.
Our main focus is a regular Sunday afternoon on-line ‘Service of the Word’, an Anglican-shaped time of prayer and Bible teaching that anyone and everyone can join in with while we’re on our different journeys. That Service will be posted here each Sunday at about 6.30am for you to share in immediately, or at any convenient time during the week – on your own, with your family or with a group of friends.
Services of the Word started to be posted on Sunday 30th April 2023.
Each Sunday you’ll also find a brief video meditation on the Psalm for the week with which to prepare yourself before sharing in worship.
Obviously, another major focus of any Christian fellowship or community is sharing the love of God and the Good News of Jesus Christ with others – the Gospel of repentance, forgiveness and new life. In fact, the first page of this website is entitled ‘Why Christianity?’, and you’ll find it starts with Jesus as a historical figure, and then leads the reader through to being able to download a copy of an introduction to Mark’s Gospel that explains and invites commitment to Christ.
But reaching out with the Gospel will only continue to grow in importance for us in the future.
In the meantime, here’s a short video introducing ourselves and some of the other resources we are seeking to offer.
