The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

For thousands of years, the Bible has been giving advice and help to ordinary people like you and me, dealing with every experience in life. It is as relevant today as it always has been.
There are many translations of the Bible available, both in hard copy and online, so you can find one which is the most comfortable for you to read. If you would like local advice, the CLC Bookstore in Stockport would be delighted to help you.
Some people find the search facility on the Bible Gateway useful. This index helps you to search for your particular situation and be taken to relevant Bible verses.
