In reply to - Roscoe Meeks posted an update

What stands out to me most about Session 19 is how it connects the stories of Noah, Abel, Abraham, Moses, and ultimately Jesus into one larger story of redemption. I was […]

I often lump all kinds of prayers together and am hoping this study will help me to focus more on one type at a time, slow down my prayers and allow me to learn to listen better as God anwsers.

In reply to - R.C. posted an update

The thematic melody of Genesis offers a powerful lens to examine our own lives, reflecting the unfolding of God’s plan through generations of His chosen partners. This recurring pattern of […]

We must also account for the author’s intended use of the word or phrase as well. We can spend the time…

When we read we need to try to understand using a variety of meanings not just our own or a limited one such as one would find in a dictionary, words would relate more to current concepts and not past meanings or multi-cultural…

Learning more about words and the backgrounds to them is so exciting and gives such depth to anything we read. This session helped me to look at my personal unspoken assumptions. Our modern understanding of Biblical writings is so shallow at times; we lean so heavily on our perceived…

I liked the multiple different ways shown in this chapter for reading through the Bible, from a simple list to grasp the main story and proceeding to the full Bible in a year reading plan.

I love the idea of a refresher in any subject, as it reminds you of what you know in depth, as well as what you missed in previous views of the same material. While knowing the majority of the information, our minds love to hear things again and this is when they create…

The idea is that as soon as you know how to do a job, you should be turning to teach another how to do it as well. If you are removed from the line, the next person is ready and prepared to step in your place. Our churches do…
