Here are some helpful links to free resources available to you for your Spiritual growth.
1) Westminster Seminary bookstore has curated a list of books they recommend that speak to the anxiety and uncertainty that often accompany a global pandemic and seismic social changes with the promises of God and helpful guides to prayer. The books themselves are very reasonably priced, but they are also making available one chapter from each of the books for free to download. You can find them (including one from our founding pastor, Iain Duguid) here: https://www.wtsbooks.com/collections/read-slow?_ke=eyJrbF9lbWFpbCI6ICJqYXJvZmNsYXk2QGdtYWlsLmNvbSIsICJrbF9jb21wYW55X2lkIjogIlBjSlFqaSJ9
2) The Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation (CCEF) has profoundly shaped our church's approach to ministry. They have prepared a webpage with a number of links to blog posts, podcasts, and other resources related to struggles many people may be having during this time, such as anxiety, loneliness, parenting, illness, etc. You can find them here: https://www.ccef.org/coronavirus/
3) The Westminster Standards are our denomination's official exposition of our understanding of the basic system of doctrine taught in the Scriptures. In the Westminster Confession of Faith and the Larger and Shorter Catechisms, you can find plentiful references to the Scriptures and why we can have confidence in God's sovereignty at all times.
