In September Robin Parry, editorial director and writer, goes through Jeremiah chapters 26--52, which open up the theme of obedience to God and the comfort of the promises He gave to His people for the future. We discover this prophet of doom is also a prophet of salvation. Then we move into Lamentations - a book of five poems in which we find both pain and despair, yet also the roots of hope and the urge to pray even when heaven is silent.

In October Ian Coffey, church leader and Bible teacher, looks at Paul's second letter to the Thessalonians, written to people on the nursery slopes of the Christian faith who needed hiss wise leadership. Their struggles (like ours) centred on belief and behaviour and these studies will provide a good refresher course in some basics of the faith as well as encouraging us all to go deeper.
