Bible in Two Years

Funny_reading
As many of you know we have decided as a community (well at least some of us within the community) to read through the Bible together.  We chose to do this over the next two years.  Beginning in January we will read through the Bible chronologically (in order of when most scholars think the books were written - which is not necessarily the order we find them in our Bible, which sometimes groups books by type of literature and not chronology)



We are also offering three books to serve as reference material for those who want to do the study three books are How to Read the Bible for All it's Worth, How to Read the Bible Book by Book, and a Bible Dictionary all for $25.



The last week of each month we will have a few different times and places for people to meet and talk about what we read that month (those times and places will be posted later)



If you are interested in being getting the books for this study please email me and let me know.  If you would like to see the reading calendar just download the following fileDownload 2_year_chronological_schedule.pdf



Thanks!

Thank You to all of those who helped with the Hawkins Christmas Ball.
The food, crafts, decorations,and dancing were all a hit.  The kids had
a lot of fun and it seemed like a big success.  We will be posting
better pictures son, but here is one low quality one from my phone for
now.  Thanks again we couldn't have done it without all of you.

The Big Story Powerpoint

Open_book_2A couple of weeks ago we took a break from Luke to talk about reading the Bible as a narrative and the importance of the "Big Story".  The talk from that week can be found here or through our itunes page.  I think I have figured out how to get you the powerpoint that goes with the talk.  Please download the file from this link and click along with the talk.  Happy Interactive Learning!
