Sunday evening speakers

Our Sunday evening sermons this term focus on the fruitful intersection between faith and music. Each week, our visiting speaker will reflect on how a particular piece of choral music (sung by the Choir at the service) points us to the beauty of the transcendent God, and the redeeming love revealed to us in his Son, Jesus Christ.
