This week as a Church we are holding a (mini-) mission. We’re calling it ‘a purpose for life,’ partly to co-ordinate with our involvement in ‘A Passion for Life’ next year, and partly because we think that (as some people once put it) the chief end of man is to glorify God and enjoy him forever. If you have the time and the inclination, we’d love you to pray for the three events we’re running in Starbucks throughout the week. Our desire is to proclaim the gospel as it addresses our contemporary ideas, idols, sins, and challenges. The titles are as follows (and I’m giving the talk at the second one):

Tuesday: ‘Faith in a Scientific Era.’

Wednesday: ‘Hope in an Economic Crisis.’

Thursday: ‘Love in a Broken Society.’
