• ‘Nicodemus’ is an Australian musical, produced and co-written by Matthew Adams, which provides an opportunity for our local church community to invite friends and family to a Gospel event that is not only entertaining and immensely enjoyable, but which also gives the opportunity for discussion afterwards. The musical will be presented in Belrose between March 21 and March 31, 2012. For more information, see www.stmattsweb.org.au/nicodemus.

  • I really can’t recommend The Turramurra Passion Play highly enough. The Play is an interactive and slightly modern interpretation of the Easter story, performed in and around the grounds of Turramurra Uniting Church. Based primarily on Luke’s Gospel from The Message translation, the play was first performed in 1999, and has developed over the following years. There are seven performances, from 23 March to 4 April. It’s free, but bookings are essential. Check out www.turramurrapassion.org.au for full details and to book.

Sorry it’s late!
- relational, legal, economic, sacrificial, military: are any of these metaphors especially helpful for your understanding of the death of Jesus? And particularly unhelpful? Any missing?
- if the death and resurrection is a cosmic event, reshaping all creation, why doesn’t the world look all that different?
- Romans 5:18 (cited by Bell) reads “Therefore just as one man’s trespass led to condemnation for all, so one man’s act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all.”
o Does this lose meaning if you don’t believe the fall as a literal story?
o Does the repetition of ‘all’ support Bell’s argument that (eventually) the righteousness of …
