Practical and Pastoral – Ted Curnow
A presentation on Marriage
Rev Ted Curnow commends the following witness: In the context of the Assembly's request to consider the Church's theology of Marriage, Rev Jonathan Button presented a proposal to the SA Synod in November 2017 highlighting the UCA doctrine of marriage. While the Synod did not proceed to make a decision about the proposal itself, the wonderful affirmation by Jonathan was a highlight for the evangelical members. The proposal will also be included in the March 2018 ACCatalyst magazine.
