    Approaching Coronaviris without panic Originally written By Simon Hill and Craig Broman (with help from the Adelaide staff team); and sent as an email to contacts within the Adelaide City Bible Forum on March 11th 2020.

While the Pharisees knew that God’s kingdom would be a party, and if you asked them if…
