Greetings on this sunny, Fall, Monday morning. It is my hope and desire that you will gain much help in this edition of my blog...but you do have to study. Take your time...stretch out the lesson material over the week. If you put in the time, you will grow spiritually.
                                                                                                                                 
LEADERSHIP APOLOGETICS: Click this LINK for our 144th apologetics short video. I believe there is much to learn from these nationally recognized Christian teachers and philosophers. Today's lesson is "Were First Century Christians Delivered From Suffering?" 
                                                                                  
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 desire 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 40 lessons (one each week). This is Lecture 21 of 40,"Life of Jesus" from the module: A Guide to Christian Theology with Dr. Gerry Breshears as teacher. Click this LINK for the 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: "Get On the Same Page." Click this LINK.                                                                                                                               
ADVANCED DISCIPLESHIP: Click this LINK for a multi-lesson series entitled: Colossians: Christ Revealed - The Hope of Glory.  This is lesson 18: "Appendix 3: Walking the Romans Road ." [final lesson in this series]. The host for this series is Dr. Gregory Brown. I believe that you will profit greatly from this study from Colossians.

GRADUATE LEVEL THEOLOGY STUDIES: This is Session 4 of 10 under Trinitarinism. Click on this LINK . This lesson is "The Incommunicable Attributes of God - Pt. 1". These are video lessons (they also have an audio version available on the same page). As of May 8, 2017, 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 of study is Domestic Violence. Click this LINK for the  article:"Protecting Yourself in an Abusive Relationship." Be prepared to offer solid advice...share this link with anyone who needs to read this.

DAILY JOURNEY: This material is from John Ankerberg. October 16...Daily Journey Entry. LINK.
