People who have enjoyed the Bible study sessions I've led or the sermons I have preached have sometimes asked if I could make my notes available. Recognizing that a major part of the value derived comes from the group discussion during the Bible study session, (and, to a much lesser extent, the style of delivery for sermons) what is left after the session are these notes.
These are my most recent sermons. I do not consider any of them to be especially good, but we did have some fun along the way.
Caring For The Salvation Of The World
Worship: Awareness Of The Presence Of God
Worship: Celebrating Life And The One Who Gave It
If you haven't endured one of my Bible study sessions I should probably explain what's going on here. We embarked on series of studies looking at one book of the Bible each week, using The Bible Book by Book: An Introduction to Bible Synthesis by G. Goleman Luck (ISBN-13: 978-0802400451) for the first half of each session, followed by discussion of selected passages from that week's book of scripture. These files are the questions I used to prompt the discussion. My goal was to encourage our participants to read carefully and to think about aspects of the passage they might not have considered. I might sometimes ask a question for which the selected passage has no direct answer, to point out that sometimes what we think a passage says isn't really there (but that particular idea may be derived from other parts of scripture). The questions are often thought-provoking, but I must warn you that sometimes when I look at one of these sheets a few weeks later I sometimes can't recall exactly the point that particular question was trying uncover.
