International student track seminars: what does the Bible say about...?

International track seminar: ghosts, gods, spirits and ancestors

Lynette Teagle, Peter Teagle

What do Christians believe about ghosts and spirits? Do the other gods people worship have any real power? What should I do about my family’s strong belief in ancestor worship? How do Christians deal with these issues? In many cultures gods, ghosts, spirits and ancestors are part of everyday life. In the West these things are rarely talked about, so international students may not always find answers to these kinds of questions in British churches. But the Bible does give answers and there are ways we can understand these things from a Christian perspective. This seminar will look at Jesus’ position and power in the spiritual world, how the Bible views these different parts of the ‘unseen world’ and how we can live a Christian life which honours our family and traditions with freedom from fear.

International track seminar: relationships

How should I choose a marriage partner? Why is it so important to marry a Christian? And what if my family want me to marry a non-Christian? If I’m married, how does my marriage match the Biblical view of marriage? And what does the Bible say about being single and the value of not being married? This seminar (which ends at 5:30pm) will attempt to look at how the Bible answers some of the big questions we all have about relationships.

International track seminar: work, possessions and contentment

Ramzi Adcock, Suzanne Adcock

Once our studies are over, the working world awaits us… So, if much of our lives are spent at work, how is it possible to be a follower of Jesus in the office, the bank, the lab or the school? We have to obey our managers, fulfil the job description, make money and show the company we are committed and hard-working. Do we therefore have to fit our faith into the few hours we have left over, or have we misunderstood what it means to follow Jesus in ALL of our lives? This seminar will look at what it means to be a follower of Jesus, even when there are other people telling us what we need to do and what our values should be.

New world? New church? - responding to the emerging church

Introducing the emerging church – how should we respond to this phenomenon?

Hannah Steele

This seminar will look at the origins of the emerging church and the core leaders and ideas at the heart of this movement. We will consider what lessons can be learned from this protest movement and will also consider a biblical approach to engaging with postmodern culture.
