Devotional Content Announcement

 Normally, I've been posting devotional content on Sunday for the homiletics I posted on Saturday.  That practice will continue.  Technically, I got ahead of myself this week because BSF (Bible Study Fellowship) is on Spring Break and I shouldn't have my homiletics done for Matthew 24 yet.  :)

So, the devotional content for Matthew 24 will be posted NEXT Sunday.  Thank you for your understanding.

I also wanted to announce the Summer Study of the book of Hebrews beginning in May right after the completion of the BSF study of Matthew.  If you want to study along, I will be using NT Wright's study guide "Hebrews (NT Wright For Everyone Bible Study Guides)" (ISBN 0830821953).  I will post my homiletics covering the verses for each chapter of the study on Saturday and devotional content on Sunday, just like I'm doing now.  I won't be posting about the study guide specifically, but the devotional content may address some things I learned in the study guide.  This study should take us right up to the start of the new BSF study of People of the Promise: Kingdom Divided.  Sign up for People of the Promise: Kingdom Divided now at bsfinternational.org.  Right now you can even try BSF for the end of the Matthew study.  Sign up for the 4-week mini study called "The Passion."

People of the Promise: Kingdom Divided explores 15 Old Testament books beginning with the division of the kingdom of Israel to its exile to Babylon.  Learn the history of Israel.  Learn how Jesus is displayed in the Old Testament.  Study prophecy.  It's going to be an exciting ride!

Homiletics Training: Content

Homiletics .   By definition, “homiletic” is the art of preaching or writing sermons.   I think we would all agree that our pastors study the Bible thoroughly to deliver sermons every Sunday to their congregations.   The beautiful news is that every child of God can use this discipline to study the Bible for themselves. As a member of Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) Leadership, part of my required preparation each week is to prepare homiletics for the passage we are studying.   BSF offers an engaging seminar on how to use this method to study the Scriptures.   I’ve taken the seminar several times under two different leaders and I’ve learned something new every time I’ve attended.   I’ve also been doing the process of homiletics for over ten years and I can say that there is no better teacher than the Holy Spirit in this process!   So keep practicing.   Keep sharing and discussing.   I’ve been posting my homiletics on this blog for quite a...

Armor of God – Week One – Sizing Up The Enemy

Welcome to Boot Camp!   For the next seven weeks we will be training with our weapons (God’s Word and prayer) in preparation for the battle of our lives and the lives of others!   And we will be learning how to equip ourselves with the Armor of God. Priscilla Shirer’s Armor of God Bible study is a MUST-DO for EVERY BIBLE STUDENT!   I don’t mean to shout, but I can’t emphasize this enough!!!   We are at war boys and girls.   And our enemy wants to keep us in the dark about that fact.   If he can convince us that he does not exist or that our God is not good or that we are not loved and treasured by the King and Creator of the Universe, he wins the battle.   But can I share something with you?   OUR ENEMY HAS ALREADY LOST THE WAR!!!!!   His time is short and he is grasping at anything we leave dangling in an attempt to drag us down.   So let’s not leave too much dangling. My church begins the Armor of God study tonight (9/9/15). ...

Armor of God – Week Five – The Shield of Faith

I must admit that this listening sheet has notes written in every corner and margin.   I was starving for a lesson of faith, apparently.   This is some of what I learned from Video #5: ·          Faith is acting like God is telling the truth. ·          Active faith is a shield. ·          Faith is not foolishness.   It may look like it to the world, though. ·          Whatever God has called me to, He will carry me through. ·          God’s call will sound irrational because His thoughts are not ours. ·          When the dots don’t connect, but we do His bidding anyway, that’s faith! ·          God is sustaining universes not yet discovered! ·     ...
