The Scripture Union glossary

We have such limited space in the physical Connecting You magazine, and it's often hard to find room to expand on terms we use regularly. So, we've launched the brand new Scripture Union Glossary! If you've ever wondered what a Faith Guide is or thought, 'Who are the 95?', we've got the answers! Click through to find out more about some of our most used words and phrases.

If you'd prefer to read the stories and prayers in magazine format, you can read the current interactive edition above or download a PDF copy. Alternatively, scroll up to subscribe to Connecting You and have the magazine posted to you for free each quarter.
