I would like to offer the course below through Lent. 

The course material produced by the Church of England invites us to think about the things that impair relationships identifying six ‘pervading evils’: prejudice, silence, ignorance, fear, hypocrisy, and power. These ‘evils’ hinder our personal growth as Christians, hurt other people, and create barriers that stop our churches from growing into Christian communities of welcome and belonging. They are the opposite of the fruit of the Spirit. It is easy to see these ‘evils’ in others; the hard work is to see them within ourselves.
It seems particularly important to have a good foundation as we consider our different responses to issues being debated within the national church.

SESSION 2 Talking about confidence and casting out FEAR
