Category: Files

This week’s files are an overview to understanding the Psalms of the Bible. We delved a bit into the basics of Hebrew poetry, literary devices, as well as categorization of psalms. We closed with a bit of homework: analyze a particular psalm using the analysis form. If you’re reading here, feel free to share your results in the comments. :)

This week we dipped a bit into restoration history to tell the stories of two preachers in Nashville: Jesse B Ferguson and David Lipscomb. One you’ve heard of, the other you haven’t

Here’s the Powerpoint..

This week we studied Saul and his mistakes — and the class made the PowerPoint in class. I’ve also included in our class files a PDF that describes some of the ways that David prefigured Christ.

Download zipped class notes on Saul and David from week 15.

Well, they asked for it, and boy, do they get it. I hope you enjoyed reading about the beginning of Israel’s monarchy this past week. Here’s a compressed version of our PowerPoint lecture.

Better late than never, right?

This ZIP File contains two PowerPoints: Mine and Keith’s covering the Judges. Enjoy!

(Yes, I corrected the error. I can’t count to 13…)

Here’s this week’s PowerPoint and the map we used in class.

Also, check out a site: Evidence for God from Science and the Bible Mapping site that I keep telling you about. You can look up a passage and have events highlighted on the map. Pretty cool, if you ask me…

Not that we got past slide 5, but here’s this week’s PowerPoint. (It’s in 2007 format this time, you may need a reader).

Also, we discussed contentment and the prosperity gospel. Here’s the Time cover story: "Does God Want you to be Rich?"

Here’s preacher John Piper’s thoughts on the prosperity gospel.

We had great discussion this week–thank you! Here’s the PowerPoint presentation and the handout.

Anyone who is interested, feel free to tackle some of our questions for next week:

• What do we know about Urim and Thummim?
• Find maps comparing modern day Israeli sites with their ancient counterparts.
• Find prophecy regarding changing of calendar systems
• Find general background on the Sanhedrin.

Don’t make this too easy for me, now… :-)
