The Gospel book for the Revised Common Lectionary Year C which began on Advent Sunday is Luke. And during 2010, the BIG READ is focusing on Luke's Gospel in a variety of ways.
There are three ways into the Big Read:
(a) individual reading of the
SPCK book on Luke's Gospel (Lent for Everyone - Luke)
(b) in facilitated groups (during Lent 2010 or otherwise)
(c) at larger gatherings between January and May when Bishop Tom Wright will speak on Luke's Gospel
(after Easter Bishop Tom will talk on the Acts of the Apostles) - click here for details of venues.

Bishop Tom's talks are being recorded and the first of these - An Introduction to Luke -
