The First Word: Creation Study Guide Below is Pastor Bill’s introduction to the “Bible in Twelve Words.” You may now pick up a copy of the study guide in the rotunda of building C on Sunday, or by contacting Joline Krolicki at jkrolicki@st.lukes.org. This guide will be used in small group settings as well as available for individual use as an additional resource to the teachings during worship beginning September 11 at ALL services. We hope you will find this a valuable tool as we respond to the desires of our congregation regarding learning more about the Bible. To sign up for small group participation please visit our web site at www.st.lukes.org/GrowthGroups, click on quick links and growth groups. For more information please contact Joline Krolicki at jkrolicki@st.lukes.org The idea for “The Bible in Twelve Words” came to me years ago when I found myself often being asked for a way for people to understand the history, theology, and unity of the Bible in a concise manner. I have found that those who are new to Bible study appreciate a bit of a road map, and those who are veterans appreciate being able to understand the direction of the Biblical narrative and the development of theology. Depending on the depth and breadth of the study, “The Bible in Twelve Words” can be used in a worship service sermon series, a one-hour stand alone event, in a twelve-week study, a twelve-month study, or any other configuration for a class. As we here at St. Luke’s spend twelve weeks in worship utilizing the “words,” I will choose to emphasize each Sunday several aspects of a particular theme. However the constraints of time will necessarily limit what I can do. For that reason I am grateful that you have chosen to use this study guide to “Dig In and Grow Deeper!” Whether you are using this guide for personal study or in the context of a small group experience, I hope it will encourage you to go well beyond the Sunday presentations to a deeper and richer understanding of God’s Word. How to get the most out of this study
And in addition to the Twelve Words, I’d like to personally add another: “Thanks!” Thank you for your desire to deepen your love for the Bible and for making the commitment to share these weeks of discovery with me. Pastor Bill Barnes “Your word is a lamp to my feel and a light to my path” Psalm 119:105 |
