Fun in the sun at this year’s World Alive

The week after Easter some 4,250 people from all over the UK decamped to Prestatyn in North Wales for Word Alive.

This year the main Bible Readings were given by Vaughan Roberts from the book of Job. While the reasons for our sufferings might remain obscure and unknown, he exhorted us to put our faith and trust in God’s sovereign goodness and to look forward to the day when we will finally share in the glorious resurrection victory of the Lord Jesus.

Spiritual oasis

Word Alive is a spiritual oasis for many families, and the 900 children were also taught Job in their groups, prompting searching questions and helpful family discussions. In the evenings there were encouraging expositions of the ‘I am’ sayings from John’s Gospel.
