The Great Divorce by C.S. Lewis stage adaptation – Marrickville
When a bus load of people trapped in a grey, joyless town take a trip to Paradise, they realise it’s not what they expected. It’s far too real! They all have something they’re holding on to preventing them from enjoying the wonders around them – one man’s pride, one woman’s shame, one man’s ego, one woman’s greed.
Letting go of their desires is far harder than it seems, and the bus back to their old miserable town is always waiting.
C.S. Lewis’ The Great Divorce shines a light on what we’re giving up when we reject relationships, in this life and the next.

Two-day event – Connected: God’s Design for Relationships – Menangle
When God made us in His image, He made us relational human beings, created to live in dynamic relationship with both Himself as well as one another. Whilst relationships are intended for mutual blessings, we all know that they also have the potential to bring pain and hurt. Jesus modelled perfect relationship to us – both in His relationship with the Father as well as with fellow human beings.
How can we find the way back? This course will help you in finding God’s way forward for your relationships and in receiving healing from wounds inflicted through relationships in the past.
Please register online.
