Resources
We would like to use the same topic as in the main church.
Up to Advent we will mostly use Tom Wright's 'My Big Story Bible' and page numbers are provided. If you need a copy for the topic you are leading, please let me know.
In Advent we are following the Lectionary - links to Roots on the Web are given.
For Bible Sunday I have included a link to the Scottish Bible Society resources.
