Greetings
on this June 27th, Monday
morning. I hope that you had a nice week. . I want to thank everyone who assisted in making Sunday such a great day and those of you that helped make VBS a great success. Thank you Bud and Robyn, for the special number in song...very nicely done!
LEADERSHIP APOLOGETICS: Click this LINK for our 75th apologetics short video. I believe there is much to
learn from these nationally recognized Christian teachers and
philosophers. Today's lesson is "The 5th Gospel?".
TRAINING THE TEACHER: My purpose here is to provide long-term biblical training for those who are
in church work but may not feel adequately trained in the Bible and
Christianity teaching in general. I want all of you to take this
training (whether you teach or not) because it will better equip you to
teach or live as a disciple of Christ. All of the material for this
training is coming to you by Biblical Training.org. I am linking you to
their site for each of the lessons. You will be exposed to some of the
finest Bible teachers in the country. You will receive Bible Institute
level training. Our session here is one of 10 lessons (one each week). This is Lesson 9 of 10, "The Church." from the module: Understanding Theology with Dr. Bruce Ware as teacher. Click this LINK for the video lesson. Visit their website and see that there are
different levels for your involvement. By registering with them (free), you
can have access to outlines, transcripts, etc. If you choose to do more
than one lesson each week...go for it! Study at your
pace.
HOPE FOR PARENTS: Click this LINK for the article, "Love is the Great Transformer."
ADVANCED DISCIPLESHIP: Click this LINK for lesson 22 of a 24 lesson series entitled: Introduction to Islam. Lesson 22 is: "Cultural Issues". The
host for this series is Dr. Timothy Tennent. This is a much more
extensive study of Islam than our previous essentials' study. I
believe that you will profit greatly from this study.
HERE'S MY QUESTION: "Why does Matthew trace Abraham's genealogy to Joseph, when he is not Jesus' true father?" Click on this LINK .
GRADUATE STUDIES: This is Session 6 of 10 under Bibliology Hermeneutics. Click on this LINK . This lesson is "Inspiration of Scripture". These are video lessons (they also have an audio version available on
the same page). In March 2016, we started the Graduate Program over from the
beginning again. These lessons are at an advanced, graduate level of study. If
you
missed any lessons previously, get them the next time around. You must
put your thinking cap on for these studies. They are sometimes
difficult, yet profitable. See the box for your choice of media...audio,
video, download.
COUNSELING HELP: The category is Parenting Children and Teens. Click this LINK for the article:"Adult Daughters Poor Choices."
LEADERSHIP QUOTE: "One person with a belief is equal to a force of 99 who have only interests." J. S. Mill. Here is a humorous bonus by that great (and now deceased) baseball player and philosopher, Yogi Berra,
to lighten your day. This
is from one of Yogi's family members, keeping up the tradition. Andrew
said: "I don't remember leaving, so I guess we didn't go.".?. Sounds like Yogi.
My desire for you this week is that you see the strength in a strong belief.
In His Majesty's service, Pastor Darrell.
