Getting Closer to God

The Featured Article and Carer's Corner will be changed each month on about the 1st of the month.

DrawNear

Where are we in our personal spiritual journey? Do we feel close to God? And what does being close to God actually mean? In this article, Laurence Lepherd and Kylee Mingham discuss many aspects of our life that will help us come closer to God and to support our friends who themselves are trying be closer. Associated with this paper is a collection of short stories about people who have felt close to God on various occasions.

One of the really important aspects of our getting closer to God is to recognise that He is immortal, invisible and totally wise. These thoughts are expressed in our hymn 94.

Carer's Corner  

Care

Spiritual care is the work involved when a person assists in promoting the well-being of another through the provision of spiritual support and comfort, and assistance in times of need.
Other definitions include concepts of:
➢ the mutual concern of people for one another
➢ helping acts to troubled persons
➢ mutual healing and growth
➢ growth as full human beings.
For Christadelphians, it centres on our service to God and His Son, Jesus, with the prayer that we will be able to help our friends get closer to God.

Our apologies!

adelphicare.org is undergoing considerable revision, especially in relation to the change from the Pastoral Visitor Program to a Pastoral Friend Program. Part of this change is a major revision of the Handbook. We hope to have it all complete with in a couple of weeks but, in the meantime, you may find that some links do not work.

We apologise for this.
