Ever felt that some subjects were off limits? Sometimes topics seem too personal or controversial to discuss in church and some have simply been ignored. Often these are the most important factors in how we live our lives today. C3 is dipping our toes in those waters, beginning the new year by having a series of sessions where we can honestly discuss our thoughts and feelings on some of those so-called taboo subjects. Of course we'll be looking at what the bible has to say too and how that's been interpreted over the years. There are many topics we could have chosen but we had to whittle them down to a few. Here they are:

Sunday 10th Jan - Work

It's what you do, spend most of your time at it .. But does that make it what you are? Does work have to be meaningful or is it just a way of making a living?

Sunday 17th Jan - Sex

Making love, satisfying lust, exchanging bodily fluids or making babies? What's God's view on sex? Can we know? Do we care?

(Note - this week we are meeting at Tony and Helen's in Withington - contact us for the address if you'd like to join us.)

Sunday  24th January -Health and Fitness

You are what you eat .. Or so they say. Are they right? Is fat a theological issue? If your body is a temple as the bible says, should it be lean, trim and fit or are we damaging people in the search of the thin and the beautiful?

Sunday 31st January - Homosexuality

Same sex couples, civil partnerships, should the church bless gay marriages?

Sunday 7th February - Politics

Is party politics a hotbed of  greed and corruption or the best expression we have of freedom and equality in government? Or is it both? Does your politics matter? Are you an activist or are you apathetic?
