I have made a video explaining how to use Church with UTB, to explain how you get started. This is focussed on the technology side of things – how you can use the App to get the service up on the screen and how to use it. If you’d like more on the thinking behind Church with UTB, I wrote an introduction to church with UTB last year.

The second commandment is as relevant to us today as it was then: there are still superstitions and magic, there are still distortions of who God really is. In this session we look at how God wants us to worship him – truly, as he really is.

The first commandment might be a puzzler: if there are no other gods, why should God feel the need to tell us not to worship them? And why is this commandment of paramound importance?

When we’re going through difficult times, it’s easy to feel that God is cold and distant. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. In this passage we see Jesus’ love and compassion in action, and what that means for how we relate to him.

A few weeks ago, I mentioned that I was working on the Understand the Bible App. I’m pleased to announce that things have progressed to the point where it’s ready to be rolled out for general usage.
As of the time of writing, you can install it, you can use it to do UTB courses, and you can use it for Church with UTB.
I do need to write a tutorial for how to use Church with UTB, but apart from that it’s ready. Have a look at the app page for some screenshots and instructions!
Please do get in touch if you have comments or feedback, I’d love to hear it. (Constructive though, please!)
The Ten Commandments are the most famous laws in the world, yet few people know what all ten of them are. In this session we introduce the commandments: why did God give them to us? Are they picked arbitrarily? Did people not know right from wrong beforehand? And how are we supposed to obey them today? All this covered, and more.
