INTRODUCTION TO SERMONS

The Sunday sermons at PPT help us to understand the whole range of the bible’s teaching and its relevance to our lives, so we print study and application questions on the Sunday noticesheet . 

Over the course of each year, we study one gospel in depth, an Old Testament book and a New Testament letter, as well as a range of wider themes. The sermons are recorded so that people can catch up with what they missed when they were away or out helping with the children’s groups.
