Looking together at what we can learn from the way stories in the Bible snap with our own experience, and discovering what changes that might make in our lives.

Unlock is about meeting in small groups to explore the Bible together - but taking as a starting point experiences of everyday life. As people think about the stories in the Bible in the light of what happens in our own homes, in tower blocks, on our city streets, in our lives each day, the pages come to life for us, and we can imagine much better how Jesus’ disciples felt, what the situations facing the old testament characters were really like.

As we share our own stories, or think about situations in East Enders, the Bible takes on a relevance directly related to where we are. God can speak to us with new insights, and can even tell us what we should do in the circumstances we thought were impossibly difficult.

In Unlock Glasgow we are a team of three, working across Glasgow, mainly in priority areas. If you would like to start up a Bible study group, or would like support with an existing group, then we can offer a wide range of different resources - or one of us could come and join/lead your group for a few weeks.

The SBS is one of our key partners, alongside Unlock UK  

Unlock Glasgow is an initiative of the Scottish Bible Society in partnership with Unlock UK and the Church of Scotland Priority Areas Group.  We are here to support the work of any church or community group in Glasgow’s Urban Priority Areas. We can provide resources, or help to lead a Bible study group, or training for group leaders.  To find out more, please contact Anne, Graham or Victoria
