Who was Jesus?

Thursday 15 November 2012

The subject was to have followed on the from the session last time that Brian led on the theme 'Who was Jesus?' Jan had offered to try to take us further. We were to refer also to the imminent vote on Women Bishops in the Church of England Synod but Rob unfortunately has enough on his plate at the moment to lead us. However, the agenda is amended because we may not have access to the 'Jesus' DVD that we were going to continue from last time.
