Alright. We are back! Today, we’re discussing the Aim.
The Aim is a statement in
your own words describing what you want your audience to take away from your
teaching. It begins with the phrase “TCMATK
(To Cause My Audience To Know [See, Learn, Desire, Understand…]).” The Aim is the goal of the teaching. It’s the main idea of the passage. Here is my Aim for this exercise:
TCMATK To serve God well, God’s people need to get alone
with Him regularly so He can prepare us.
Looking at it now, it seems focused more on my third
Division. It does imply the first and
second Divisions, but I want to better embrace all three Divisions.
Let’s adjust it: Serving God will involve rejection and
success, so God’s people need to get alone with Him so He can prepare us.
Does that sound better?
What does your Aim look like?
That’s all for today.
I understand the main takeaway of the passage to be that serving God
will bring both success and rejection and that I need to be prepared to handle
both by spending time with God in Bible study and prayer. Doing this will keep me encouraged when I
want to give up because of failure and it will keep me from becoming prideful over
successes. How did your Aim encourage
you? Be sure to come back tomorrow to
learn more about Application questions.
See you then.
