"Big Picture"

“Big Picture”

Blessings Folk!

Have you the desire to get a “big picture” of the Word of the Most High God?

We know some.
Some of the grand stories, events, principles.

We even know some of the detail.

But, all too often we miss how is all fits together.

Oh, we are strong on our particular “distinctive” pushed by man, but, what is the Lord saying overall?

We are beginning a time together that I think will help.

A new Bible study begins locally this week…
Mondays, 5:30 p.m. or
Tuesdays, 9:00 a.m.
(contact me for location)

It is titled “Cookies on the Lower Shelf”.
Yep.
That’s the name.

This study is a three-part overview of the entire Word of God.

Each part is 10-weeks in length.

Part 1 covers Genesis-Ruth.
Part 2 the balance of the Old Testament.
Part 3 the New Testament.

The study is part of a new product line from Precept Ministries...a “flexible inductive study”. This simply means that you do the amount of homework that you can during the week. No condemnation. No guilt. You will like the format and options.

Effectively it is a product designed around how we do things. Happy

So, come and join us locally.

If you live outside the local area we will also be providing this study online beginning Tuesday evening, May 22.

The Precept online courses are still in a “private-beta” development.
In other words, this is not being advertised, etc.
We are learning how to implement things. Happy

To join an online class...

Join!

The online classes are limited in size, so hurry.

There is another class that we are making available online.
This is a 40-minute version, no-homework course called “Fatal Distractions
Here is the promo…

Is Sin Threatening Your Spiritual Progress? Any type of sin can undermine a believer's effectiveness, but certain sins can become so deeply rooted in our lives—even without our realizing—that they become fatal to our spiritual growth.

This study looks at six of the "deadly" sins that threaten spiritual progress: Pride, Anger, Jealousy, Gluttony, Slothfulness, and Greed. You'll learn to identify the subtle ways in which these fatal distractions can invade your life, and you'll be equipped to conquer these destructive temptations so you can mature in your journey with Christ.

Hummm! Happy

Fatal Distractions” will be meeting at noon C.D.T. beginning Tuesday, May 22.

Registration process is the same as above.

So, to conclude.

Immerse yourself in the Word.
Seek the Lord.
He will be found.
