God Incarnate: Reflections on the Nativity

Bring your own popcorn! This Nativity series produced by the BBC provides a very human portrayal of the Nativity narrative. Together we will watch the four episodes and invite discussion on our responses to the human telling of the birth narratives from the Gospels of Luke and Matthew.

These evenings together will be less ‘course’ and more ‘personal reflection’ in nature. After we have enjoyed the shared experience of watching a very human retelling of this powerful narrative, we will take time to notice what emerges from this portrayal. You will be invited to think, share and reflect together on your response to this re-telling of a familiar narrative and how it confirms, deepens or challenges your previous imagery and understanding of the Nativity.

The course provided space for personal reflection

Theology Catch-Up Course

It supported my learning and helped me to think about my faith. The course provided space for personal reflection which I greatly appreciated.

Riveting!

Book of Revelation course

Someone on the course said it was ‘riveting!’ This was exactly what I felt. The course was a total joy because of the tutor’s handouts, excellence and Sarum College hospitality.
Mark Oakley

Faith is an imaginative adventure

The Very Revd Dr Mark Oakley

I admire the work and tone of Sarum College very deeply. It is a community that takes theology and spirituality seriously, not as hobbies but as pursuits into understanding, and engaging in, a complex world.

Sarum College reminds us that faith is an imaginative adventure and that it is shaped by a questioning joy.
