Greetings
on this more new snow, Tuesday morning entry (yes, I am a day late). 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 166th apologetics short video. I believe there is much to
learn from these nationally recognized Christian teachers and
philosophers. Today's lesson is "What is the New Atheism?"
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 52 lessons (one each week). This is Lecture 2 of 52, from the module: "52 Major Stories of the Bible" with Dr. Bill Mounce as teacher. Click this LINK for the lesson, "Creation and Us.". Visit their website and see that there are
different levels for your involvement. By registering with them (free and necessary), 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: "Drug Proof Your Kids." Click on this LINK.
ADVANCED DISCIPLESHIP: Click this LINK for a multi-lesson [new series] Parables of Jesus. This is lesson 5 of 30: "The Friend at Midnight." The
host for this series is Hampton Keathly, IV. I
believe that you will profit greatly from this study of Jesus' parables.
HERE'S MY QUESTION: "How does one support cessationism in light of Acts 2:17?" Click on this LINK to read the answer. Good question...interesting observations.
GRADUATE LEVEL THEOLOGY STUDIES: This is Session 5 of 10 under Soteriology. Click on this LINK . This lesson is "The Doctrine of Atonement, Pt. 2." 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 Grief and Loss . Click this LINK for the article:"Understanding Grief ." Be prepared to offer solid advice...share this link with anyone who needs to read this.
DAILY JOURNEY: This material is from John Ankerberg...his thoughts about various Bible passages. March 13...Daily Journey Entry. LINK.
LEADERSHIP QUOTE: "The family Bible is more often used to adorn coffee tables or press
flowers than it is to feed souls and discipline lives." Charles Colson
My desire for you this week is that you feed your soul from the Bible.
In His Majesty's service, Dr. Darrell Foltz.
