February 10, 2023 study - The book of Jude please join us for this study in the book of Jude. In this short one chapter, 25 verse book, there is just so much jam packed in here! Jude issues a warning that really seems more directed at our time than the first century church. In the after discussion we discuss the dispute over Moses body and “rebuking the devil” and “claiming the blood of Jesus”. We talk about communion and how it should be a sacred time of intimacy and how an unbeliever could actually be bringing judgement on themselves by participating.

There is no after discussion because I could not record the audio in the original study in which we had a great discussion! - but I do offer a little personal tribute to my dog at the end who I had to put to sleep this morning.

January 27, 2023 study - Titus 1 - This week we take a look a the first chapter of the book of Titus, Paul is giving advice to a young pastor on how to handle a new church and the topics cover eternity, and how to handle unruly troublemakers.

January 13, 2023 study - Joshua 23 & 24 In this final study of Joshua we look at the the overall theme of this book - courage! And Joshua’s final admonition to Israel. We also look at the next generation beyond Joshua and the leader that had the zeal to lead them into the next generation. In the after discussion we talk about how Joshua relates to our generation and the cycles of faithfulness of one generation and how sadly they give way to the faithlessness of another. We also discuss the bones of Joseph and what it was like for Israel to finally put them to rest, finally we talk about how Jesus has sheep from another flock and how it relates to Isaiah 56 and the sons of the foreigner who join to Israel. Also a special thanks to Carlos who helped me out with some of the prayers and blessings at the end since my voice was starting to give way!

January 6, 2023 study - Joshua 21 & 22 In this study we look at the cities of the Levites, and all of the promises of God that have been fulfilled and will be fulfilled. We look at the land promised and the land actually claimed, and we look at an altar built as a replica on the East side of the Jordan and why it almost started a civil war in Israel. In the after discussion we talk a little but about current events, the second anniversary of January 6th, the Speaker of the House battle and we have prayer for unity of our country and we also pray about the passing of Pope Benedict this week.

Dec 16, 2022 Special study - Chanukah This week we take a break from our studies in Joshua to take another look at Chanukah.

Dec 9, 2022 study of Joshua 15, 16 & 17 This week we will look at three chapters of Joshua, 15, 16 and 17. In this study we look at the some of the boundaries of Israel, what was promised, what was actually claimed? We talk about Caleb’s inheritance again as well as the inheritance of the five daughters of Zelophehad. We also see a tribe that greatly multiplied and wanted more land, and how Joshua told them something like “God helps those who help themselves” In the after discussion, we delve a little bit more into the character of Caleb and just as a reminder, next week is a very special teaching on Chanukkah - I hope you can join us, my zoom link is below.
