Faith for the Week Ahead

You do not need to capture every word. Begin with one passage, one honest question and one practical response. The six steps below offer a simple way to use the NCHIC Listening Guide at your own pace.

After listening, return to the Bible passage in its wider context. Notice who is speaking, who is being addressed and how the passage connects with the message. Write down anything you would like to understand more clearly, rather than feeling you must have an immediate answer.

Choose one response that fits your circumstances: a prayer, a conversation, an act of kindness or a change in a daily habit. Revisit your notes later in the week and reflect on what you have learnt. If a question remains, use our Contact page to ask how to discuss it with the church team.
