Genesis 12-50 - Mary Evans
In January Mary Evans writes about Genesis 12-50, a series of stories about three generations of the same family. There are questions to ask and lessons to be learned from each individual account, but there are also themes and motifs that recur throughout all the narratives - including a focus on God's promise and on the responsibilities He gives to those who relate to Him, a stress on God's presence in good times and bad, and on God's covenant choices and His interest and concern for outsiders.
John 12-21 - Jeff Lucas
In February Jeff Lucas looks at John 12-21, which begins and ends with resurrection. The raising of Lazarus ironically sets Jesus on the pathway to His own death. We'll consider His footsteps of that fateful week. And we'll celebrate the fact that we know the end of the story: Jesus: one. Death, Satan, and the powers of darkness: nil.These bimonthly notes are written by a variety of respected Bible teachers to help you study God's Word daily.
