Autumn Preaching Series - Training in the wilderness (TitW)

One of the overarching themes in the Bible is The People of God – God calling a people for Himself. We see this theme from the call of Abraham and the Exodus (Ex 6:7) to Revelation (21:3).This series will look at the lessons the 12 tribes learned after the Exodus, during the wilderness wanderings, about their relationship with God. This will help us at All Saints (from all tribes and all nations!), at the beginning of this new term, to understand our identity as the people of God. We will celebrate this, of course, on All Saints’ Day. The narrative from the Book of Numbers will form the basic reference – other scripture passages (Epistle and Gospel) to be chosen by the preachers.
