Journeying with Luke - Passion - Holy Week
by SPCK - Woodward, Gooder and Pryce

Journeying with Luke - The Easter Narratives
by SPCK - Woodward, Gooder and Pryce
6 The Easter narratives Exploring the text Without a doubt the story of Jesus’ appearance to the disciples on the road to Emmaus must be one of the best-loved of the resurrection stories. Like so much else in Luke’s Gospel, its themes remind us of some of Luke’s major emphases th…

journeying with mark yr B - Introduction: Getting to know the Gospel of Mark
by SPCK - Woodward, Gooder and Pryce

Journeying with Luke - Christmas and Epiphany
by SPCK - Woodward, Gooder and Pryce
