Winter Quarter At-A-Glance: Our Love for God
Our love for God took on new meaning when God came to live in our world.
Our Love for God, the title of this quarter’s studies, can be a rather humbling subject. While the Lord’s love is everlasting (Jeremiah 31:3), ours is inconsistent and “never lasting.” Still, the command to love God is, as Jesus stated, “the first and greatest commandment” (Matthew 22:36-38). Lessons this quarter are drawn from both the Old and New Testament, since loving God is seen throughout Scripture as humanity’s principal response to God.

Jesus’ invitation is an invitation to a relationship
and it begins with a simple request: follow me.
Matthew 4:19 (KJV)
“And he saith unto the, Follow me,
and I will make you fishers of men.”
Religion says, “Change and you can join us.”
Jesus says, “Join us and you will change.”
There’s a huge difference.

Women's Bible Study
2nd and 4th Thursday
6:00 p.m.
Are you interested in interacting more meaningfully with the Bible?
Would you like to engage with the Word more and see yourself in the story? This is what our Women’s Bible Study group has been experiencing through the method of Storying!
-A Bible story is read or told by memory to the group.
-The learners then retell the story as best as they can.
-Someone then reads the story from the Bible.
-The group then discusses what/so what/how/the implications
and applications of the story.
It is an effort to practice the oral tradition of the Bible and discover what familiar and not so familiar stories are saying to us. Our series for the remainder of the year will be “Christ in the Bible.”
[Jesus] said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you:
Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses.”
Luke 24:44
There is no finer teacher on whether Jesus is to be found in the pages of the Old Testament than the teaching of our Lord Jesus himself. It was He who said in John 5:39, “You diligently study the Scriptures [which at that time were the 39 books of the Old Testament] …. These are the Scriptures that testify about me.” In Luke 24: 25-27, Jesus rebuked Cleopas, and that other unnamed disciple, as they walked along the road to Emmaus on that first Easter Sunday, “How foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Did not Christ have to suffer these things and then enter His glory? And beginning with Moses and all the prophets, [Jesus] explained to them what was said in all the [Old Testament] Scriptures concerning himself.” It is only right that we should find that Jesus was present in the Old Testament. It was accurately predicted that He would come first as our Savior, and then in a later second coming, would appear as the King supreme over all the earth. Such an unusual state of affairs is possible because He was, He is, and He is the One to come!
