SUMMARY:Run the Race
DESCRIPTION:Therefore\, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses\, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely\, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us\, looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith\, who for the sake of the joy that was set before him endured the cross\, disregarding its shame\, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.  \nHebrews 12:1-2  \nAre you a New Years Resolution person? All those great decisions and good intentions… it’s not that they are a bad thing\, right?  \nHow do we run the race with endurance\, not falling into trying\, but rather training? \nWhat would it mean to make choices at the beginning of the New Year that allow us to flourish\, rest\, be more creative\, and joyful?  \nAs I have listened to felt needs around the Diocese in these first six months\, how we are to manage our time\, make good choices about what to do and\, probably more importantly\, what not to do\, has come up all over the place. Run the race seeks to offer support into that.  \nThis is not so much a training day\, more led retreat. \nIn it there will be time to discern priorities\, get things in the diary that give us life [yes\, really\, bring your diary – let’s do this!]\, be realistic about what needs to go\, find space for that thing you’ve wanted to do for ages… above all\, to be reminded by God that you are beloved\, and don’t need to do anything to earn God’s love. \nTo book your place please click here. \nLed by: \nKate Stacey\, Collaborative Ministry Lead: Lifelong learning and Becca Faal\, Strategic Lead for Safeguarding Training & Learning. \nThe Revd Kate Stacey leads on the development of an innovative and collaborative approach to ensuring all ministries\, licensed\, lay and ordained grow and flourish.  Kate develops and delivers the CMD programme for everyone. \n  \n  \n  \nBecca is the lead for all safeguarding training and learning. Becca ensures training is delivered to a high standard within the national CofE framework. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Preaching the Lectionary Gospel - a year with Luke
DESCRIPTION:At the start of Advent we will tip into year C – reflecting on\, studying and hearing from God through the Gospel according to Luke. As we follow the lectionary through the year\, we do so with the Anglican Communion\, many other denominations\, nations and people groups. It’s a wonderful thing! \nEach week another glimpse at the life and ministry of Christ\, treasures to ponder and wonder about. And before we begin\, here is a great opportunity to remind yourself\, or to study for the first time\, the whole narrative of Luke\, the context in which he was writing\, as he writes this\, his first contribution to our scriptures. \nOur colleagues from Cuddesdon\, Gloucester and Hereford Training will be leading us through this and it is promising to be a rich and inspiring time together. \nLed by: Revd Dr Richard Wyld\, Director\, Portsmouth Pathway Cuddesdon \nHaving taught on the Portsmouth Pathway for a couple of years before becoming Director in May 2020\, Richard joined the academic staff team based at Cuddesdon in July 2024. He teaches on a range of courses and areas of ministry\, though his main interest is with biblical studies\, hermeneutics\, and especially the New Testament. He trained for ordained ministry at Cranmer Hall\, and then paused ordination to study for a PhD in Durham\, looking at Christian hope as a framework for thinking about what is happening when we read scripture. He was ordained in 2013\, served his title in and around Sherborne in Dorset\, and was chaplain to the Bishop of Portsmouth from late 2017-2020.  Richard enjoys finding ways to make scripture and theology as accessible as possible to all\, and believes that everyone has a voice in the enterprise. He lives with a rescue dog\, enjoys walking and painting\, and is approximately one half of post-hardcore talk music duo\, ‘Rails\, Witnesses’. \nThis event will run on Monday 4 November starting at 7pm or Tuesday 5 November at 10am \nTo book your place on either of these events please click here.

SUMMARY:Open the Gospel Learning Community
DESCRIPTION:Do you sometimes read the Gospel for this coming Sunday and wonder what new perspective you might find? \n \nWould you value space to wrestle with the text with other\, faithful people?
