Sunday 6 December

Leviticus 18:9–14

« Keep my decrees and laws, for the person who obeys them will live by them. I am the Lord. » — Leviticus 18:5

Our next Ushirika is on Sunday 6 December, straight after the service. We are together about two hours. Anyone in the chapel is welcome, whether or not you have come before.

The passage

Six short commands from the laws given at Sinai, setting limits on sexual relations within the family. This is our first passage of Old Testament law, and the work is to hear what such a text says about God and his people before asking what it says to us. Work at it before you come. Read it, sit with it, and write your own outline of a message on it. That is what makes the morning worth your Sunday: everyone in the room has wrestled with the same text, so what we say to each other can be about what Scripture says.

What we will do

Opening prayer
Praying the passage together
A message preached on it, about twenty minutes
Feedback from everyone on how the text was handled
Review of one lesson from the Langham course
Closing prayer

What to bring

Your own written outline of a message on the passage, and a snack to share. There is no separate break. We eat as we go.
