On Tuesdays we like to draw your attention to certain aspects of the Scottish Women’s Bible Convention. We asked our speaker Carrie Marlow to share more about what she will be speaking on.

What are you speaking about at the Scottish Women’s Convention and why?

I’m speaking from the book of Hebrews, looking at how ‘Jesus is better’. Hebrews is full of so many ways that Jesus is the best, better than anything else. I think sometimes it’s a book we might avoid because it is full of Old Testament references that we might find it hard to get our heads around, and there are some slightly confusing warnings throughout the book. Yet, it is full of riches about who Jesus is and what difference that makes to us as we walk through this life. I have been loving digging into Hebrews recently, and deciding which bits to focus on has been hard because there are so many wonderful truths through this book.

I hope that as we study a small part of this book together we will see how Jesus really is better, what difference that makes, and want to keep digging into the riches of this book.

Besides speaking, what one thing about the Scottish Women’s Bible Convention are you looking forward to and why?

Having recently moved away from Scotland I’m really looking forward to connecting with old friends and making new ones. I’ve always enjoyed those moments at SWBC where you get to connect with people from across the country who are all united in Jesus. The first time I came on my own and I knew very few people and was scooped up by a group of people from another church and I love seeing that happen for others as we gather together as sisters in Christ.
