This Week at Immanuel

• 11.30am The passage we’ll be studying on Sunday morning is 1 Kings 13+14 which contains two stories. The first is about a prophet who disobeyed God’s word and was killed by a lion. The second is about how God condemned King Jeroboam because he too was disobedient to God’s word.

• 7.00pm Colin will be preaching on Philippians 1:12–26 on Sunday evening. Paul makes clear that the Lord has brought good out of his imprisonment. He also makes clear that he does not regard death as a threat, because to depart from this life means being with his Saviour. We gather in the presence of God to hear his word and to give thanks to him in prayer and praise. Everyone is welcome to join us.
