| The biblical texts used in worship, in bible studies and in the daily prayers will be concerned with hope as a word at the heart of the Christian faith. So the biblical texts will make clear that hope must be earthed in the imitation of the passion of God towards the disadvantaged. Fundamental to this commitment by Christians is a trust in the promises of God, which point us to a good future. |
