BLYM Weekly Updates

Hey people!

Yesterday was Bible Sunday - a day where the universal Church gives special reverance to the Bible. You may think that the Bible is not interesting, doesn't engage you in practical real life situations and doesn't even fit with Science. Well, a group of young people who has been coming regularly for the t3 Bible classes doesn't think so! Mark Harts speaks right into their deepest fears and answers some of their questions with practical examples from the Bible. Kidding? Why not join in the next run of t3 to find out?
