Lent 3
Luke 13.1-9It isn’t fair! Why do disasters happen? (AAA)
Many people blame God for disasters. But this is not the answer. Calamity is no respecter of persons.
A waste of space? (CYP)
The story offers a glimpse into the tussle in the heart of God over God’s ‘unfruitful’, that is disobedient, people.

The fruitless fig tree (AAA)
Like the fig tree, the people of Israel were privileged, says Jesus. Israel had a covenant with God; as God’s chosen people, they had a commission to make God’s way known.
These resources were first published in 2004.
