Welcome to your Bible Sunday resources!

As promised, here are your resources for Bible Sunday. And it’s a truly gastronomic buffet – a wide variety of materials from which you can pick and choose to provide your church with a taste of all the Bible has to offer.

Remember that Bible Sunday is officially on either 28 October or 9 December, but you can choose any Sunday to feast on the Bible’s big meal. If necessary, please pass on this pack to the person leading your Bible Sunday service.

As I’m sure you know, Bible Sunday this year has the theme of Going Large – Feast on the Bible’s big meal to draw strength for today and tomorrow. This theme and the materials are drawn from Romans 15.1–6 (one of the lectionary readings for 28 October for those churches which follow them). You can read more on the background to Paul’s letter to the Christians of Rome in the background information enclosed.

These resources are easy to use, straightforward and adaptable to your own circumstances. You don’t have to use them all and you can vary when you use them: Sunday morning, Sunday evening, midweek, home groups, youth groups – whenever suits you and your church.

Feeding the hunger of millions
Bible Sunday gifts in 2007 will bring the Bible to communities who don’t read and urgently wait for the Scriptures in audio. These communities are some of the world's poorest and come alive as they enter into the story of the Bible for themselves.

We hope that you and your church enjoy your feast on Bible Sunday. Please remember to let us know how you get on. Your comments will be valuable to us in preparing more great resources for your 2008 Bible Sunday pack.
