Newsletter - Sunday 25th January 2026

Dear Friends of Burnside,


This Sunday at Burnside we’re continuing our  series “Jesus – True and Better”, and you are warmly invited to join us.


We’ll be looking at the account of the Fall in Genesis 3 and finding Jesus, The True and Better Fig Leaf and The True and Better Adam. This takes us from hiding and shame to being clothed and secure, from the old humanity in Adam to the new humanity in Christ. Moving from fig‑leaf religion to Christ‑clothed faith; from Adam’s failure to Jesus’ obedience


Whether you’re a regular at Burnside, someone who hasn’t been for a while, or you’ve never been before, you’ll be very welcome this Sunday at 11:00am.


If you have missed anything in this series so far you can catch up here with the Sunday Services and the daily Podcast:
