All of the Small Group Leaders at church received a new Study Bible to help us with our Small group Leading and personal bible study. It seems like it is a resource that I will be using for years to come. I Have a New American Standard Bible that I have had since 1986, and I have underlined it and written in the margins for years. I really hate to use the information and insights that I have recorded in there for all those years. But this is an AWESOME BIBLE!! I found a little video about it and thought that the two people who actually read this blog may like to see.
Here is a video... (If it works)
I really hope that this study bible will help to get me interested in the LEARNING part of bible study again. I remember I used to do my own "expositorial study" if that is the right phrase, if it is even a phrase at all. I used to love to learn about the words, meanings, why they used it, background about the passage and all of that cool stuff. I really hope that this will stir that back up and get me into bible STUDY again, not only for the Small group I am leading, but for my personal growth and knowledge.
If any of you out there would like to pray for me to make this a point of my life where I can really begin to have the discipline to study more and be more of a spiritual leader for my family, I would not turn that down. I know that it is kinda weird to put a prayer request out there on a public blog, but I think that we need to be praying for each other like this anyway. So there it is. take it how you want to.
