Discover Jesus







Jesus said...


“Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”


“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness.”


“The one who believes in me will live, even though he dies.”

Jesus was born in Israel about 2000 years ago. He began to teach and heal and do signs and wonders when he was around 30 years old. And he made some big claims about himself!

Back then there were no TV cameras but some of the eye witnesses who saw his life and death and ressurection wrote about him or gave their testimony to researchers who wrote everything down. 

The result was a set of four books called Gospels. Gospel means 'Good News!' These Gospels are the first four books of the New Testament in the Bible. They are often referred to as Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, based on who wrote them. Reading them will help you discover Jesus for yourself.

You can read the whole of Mark online. It takes about 2 hours to read.

Here is a set of talks given recently at St Brigid's taking you through the first 13 chapters of Mark. The final chapters will appear here after Easter 2025. 

Listening to these will help you understand who Jesus claimed to be and how he can change lives today. 

You will be redirected to Spotify to listen and each talk lasts about 20 minutes.
