Wise bridesmaids

12 - 18 November 2017

A dark night

Matthew 25.1-13
  • Jesus tells a parable about ten bridesmaids waiting for the groom – but are they ready?
  • Half of the bridesmaids have oil for their lamps, the other half do not.
  • When the groom arrives, those with no oil go to buy some, but miss their moment.

This week's resources explore: 
what it means to be prepared; challenging complacency; living for tomorrow, today.
