Come for lunch and ask big questions of life and faith. Is there a God? Who was Jesus? Can we trust the Bible? Did the resurrection really happen? Why’s it matter? Along with any other questions you may have.
You don't need to bring anything or do anything in advance. Just turn up for our free lunch, and be part of the conversation, discussion and questions about life and faith.
GOT KIDS? We may be able to support you with children if that would help you to attend. Please email in advance if that may help you.
For those who have enjoyed the Explore Course, and want to continue looking into the Christian faith.
This course is set in a home, around food, looking at questions such as;
How am I made to live best?
Where is God in pain and suffering?
Does God care about social justice?
Can we believe without seeing?
Does God want to spoil our fun?

Hi, my name’s Andy. I’m married to Kitty, have three children and work as a civil servant down in London.
A friend took me to an Explore course a few years back. I’d had no real contact with the church before – but I found the course really engaging and answered a lot of the big questions in life that I’d never really got around to asking. I’m sure you will find it both thought provoking and helpful in equal measure!
