Super Saturday Seminar - Prioritizing Your Priorities

Introducing Bishop Chris Edwards

The Rt Rev Chris Edwards has been the Bishop of North Sydney since May, 2014.

Before being chosen as Bishop of North Sydney in 2013, he was part of the ministry team at Holy Trinity Adelaide. He led a team of people as the founding minister of Holy Trinity Adelaide Hills.

Prioritizing Your Priorities

The call of the book of Haggai is for the people of God to consider their ways and re-order their priorities.
“I believe, every now and then, it is necessary for us to do a bit of self-examination. Haggai says to people of his time to ‘lay your heart on the road’. In other words bring your hearts into the open and examine what you are doing. Times have changed but the need to examine our priorities, and our hearts, remains.”
Chris Edwards, Bishop of North Sydney

Wealth with Purpose seminar

Sound money management is critical to both getting ahead, but also to living a God-honouring life. In this free seminar, Alex Cook will unpack what the bible says about money, wealth and possessions and then provide practical strategies to manage and grow your finances.

Clearly God knew that most of us would struggle with money, be it in a spiritual sense or in the practical day-to-day stewardship. The good news is that with a few basic skills and the wisdom of the Bible, you can manage money effectively for you, your family and to advance God’s kingdom.

Alex will cover:

• Should I rent or buy?

• The Biblical foundations of money Management

When: May 31st 2018 7:45pm-9:30pm

Where: St John's Asquith 6 Royston Parade Asquith

How Much: Free!

John Connell, husband and father of three, grew up in an environment where drug and alcohol use was normal behaviour. As a child, substance abuse contributed significantly to the dysfunction in his family life. John took this dysfunction into adult life. By the grace of God John turned his back on substance abuse and in his late 20’s gave his life to Christ. Some fifteen years later, however, John, still a Christian and with a young family, found himself back in the grip of alcoholism. By the grace of God once more, John found recovery from alcoholism and has been sober and growing in his Christian life these past sixteen and a half years. As a member and leader of Overcomers Outreach, a ministry dedicated to helping anyone who struggles with any kind of addiction, John shares his experience, strength and hope with others so that they may also be liberated from the destructive grip of compulsive behaviour and/or substance abuse.
