The study titles
Colin Jones is married to Robyn, and together they have raised six children. He grew up in a small industrial city in South Australia, and came to Christian faith in 1970 at the age of twenty.

He has worked in industry, served as an ordained local church pastor for seventeen years in Adelaide, South Australia, and since then has been an inter-denominational bible teacher, both within Australia and overseas. For thirteen years he was a team member of the New Creation Teaching Ministry, based in Adelaide.

Colin’s teaching reflects a high view of the authority of the Bible. And always, there is an underlying conviction: that the One of whom the Scriptures speak, is dynamically at work within His creation—transformingly so, in the lives of those who have come to drink freely from His love’s deep spring.
One thing that is essential to enjoyment of true and full human living is the matter of personal freedom. The twenty-four studies of ‘The Way To Human Freedom’ teaching series, explore what the Bible reveals about this critical theme. Study by study, the amazing nature of God’s liberating action towards humankind is gradually spelt out—showing its power to bring personal and social transformation.

The freedom we all require is one that does not depend upon ideal situations. Our great need is for liberation into a new capacity to become all we were created to be—regardless of our background or present environment. Basic to such freedom, is release from a recurring spirit of despair in the areas of conscience, personhood, circumstances, human fulfillment and eternity. And so, a prime objective of this series is to reveal the stunning reality, of our Maker’s magnificent provision in all of these areas.

Because the studies bring a progressively unfolding understanding—with each one building upon what has gone before—it is important to move through in numerical order. The first eight deliver a basic proclamation of God’s redeeming—that is, liberating—work. In this, we are shown who He is, what He has created us to be, what has become of us, and what He has done to make possible the freedom we all yearn to know. The remaining sixteen, show the practical and vocational outworking of this personal liberty.

The series is not a ‘quick read’. Its purpose is to provide a simple, yet substantial, account of our human dilemma, and its divine solution. To do this, an adequate framework of understanding must be built. The matter of personal freedom is, indeed, of enormous importance to us all. It clearly deserves more than a superficial approach.

All twenty-four studies are not yet ready for presentation, and those that are, are still in process. The series is also better proclaimed than read. Later, audio and video presentations should be available on site. But for now, you are invited to read on!
