A Bible Study Course was created by the Revd. Vaughan Roberts from Oxford in England. It is based on his book “God’s Big Picture: A Bible Overview”. See this link to clayton.tv where the course with notes and videos is free to download. There are 9 units. Each unit has a short introductory video by the Revd. Roberts. I created this page of links to make it easy for our Bible Study members to view the videos for each Unit and so review the course at any time. And, a huge thank you to the Revd. Vaughan Roberts. To God be the Glory. Please scroll down for links.

KIERA’S LAST POEM
I sense the touch of cosmic wings
And hear these words, an angel sings…
“We are calling,
Calling you home “….
I am falling, falling
But not alone.
An Angel waits now by my side
Smiling too, she is my guide
I seem to awaken
Then gently taken….
Then up and away we fly
Passed the stars
Beyond the sky
Round the moon
Then through the sun
And there I see
The Holy One..
Arms outstretched
Greeting me………
But I’m a dog
This can’t be?
I had to gasp
I was surprised….
“ALL ARE EQUAL
WHO HAVE DIED
COME TO ME
MY DEAREST ONE
YOUR JOB ON EARTH
HAS BEEN WELL DONE”.
……Gently, drifting bathed in light
……Warm and cosy so ‘Good Night’.
End
