A Tool For Bible Teachers - Enjoying the Journey

The best teachers are those who never cease being students. This is especially so when it comes to teachers of God’s Word. Scripture is the inexhaustible mine of God’s infinite truth. It is a thrill to roll up your sleeves, gather your tools, and crawl into the deep treasure trove of the Bible! David expressed this joy when he wrote, “And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved” (Psalm 119:47).

Bible teaching is simply taking the truth you have uncovered, through your own study of Scripture, and passing it on to others! God has designed the Word to be continually received and relayed. We take it in – and we give it out.

All of us who teach the Word are on the watch for helpful resources. I am happy to share with you a new tool which we pray will be a blessing to many. My own study of the life of Joseph has been a great help to my faith and walk with Christ. Our full-length book, The LORD Was With Joseph, is available in both hardback and digital form, along with a companion study guide for group study. (You may access all of the Joseph series resources, including free downloads and graphics, at enjoyingthejourney.org/Joseph.)

Next week we are releasing a series of videos specifically for Bible teachers on how to teach through the life of Joseph. Subscribe to our YouTube channel and watch for a new video each evening next week (Monday-Saturday). A brief overview of each lesson is given, along with helpful suggestions for effective teaching. The first video on Monday evening will give a short introduction to the series.

Whether you are a student, Bible teacher, pastor, or simply seeking to learn more about Joseph and his God, this will help you to study through the Scriptures and pass along the truth God teaches you. Grab your Bible, the Joseph resources, something to take notes on, and let’s jump into Genesis together! Thank you for studying with us and passing on the truth to others.

The more we draw near to and worship Him, the more we’ll become aware of how much He loves us and has intervened in our circumstances. The more we become aware of all He has done for us – and in us – the more we’ll experience healing from our pain and anger. Eventually, we’ll experience a joy we haven’t known for a long time.

The Christmas song “Mary, Did You Know” asks Mary, the mother of Jesus, a series of questions. “Did you know your baby boy would one day walk on water? Give sight to a blind man? Calm a storm? Rais…

Angels are an intrinsic and dynamic part of the Christmas story. Christmas simply would not have occurred without these God-sent messengers from heaven. We don’t know if the angels were clothed in flowing, white robes, if they had a halo that sparkled, or even if they flew with wings into the Christ

The Mall or the Manger?
Much has changed since the God of the universe decorated the night sky with the star of Bethlehem and directed the choir of angels in a chorus announcing the birth of Our Savior, Jesus Christ. But the commercialism doesn’t have to rule in our hearts and homes. This year let’s focus on the Christ Child and remember the true meaning of the holiday season. As we turn our eyes to the Babe in the manger, we will not view Christmas as a dreaded obligation or a major retail event. It will be a time of joyous celebration, honoring the One Who came to give us eternal life and worshipping our Heavenly Father.
