Where better in Scotland to combine a holiday with great Christian encouragement than Oban, on the beautiful west coast? This August saw the third Argyll Convention, a Bible-teaching event started by an enterprising group of local ministers, aimed at both locals and holidaymakers.
The format is a morning Bible reading at 11a.m. and an evening talk at 7.30p.m., over a period of three days. This gives plenty of time to relax but there are afternoon seminars to choose from as well.
In the mornings, we delved into the breathtaking early chapters of Exodus, freshly encountering our true and living God. In the evenings, John Angus Macleod of Edinburgh Theological Seminary showed us, most encouragingly, the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ in John’s Gospel.
