Genesis & Job, answers to the Big Questions of Life, part ONE—week #1 of Thru the Bible in Chronological Order

2023-01-06 by bible805

Genesis and Job, part One, week one in reading through the BibleWith this lesson, we start the adventure of reading through the Bible in Chronological Order. It begins by reading Genesis and three days into it, we jump to the book of Job.

We will talk about why we read these two books together and you’ll see how Genesis and Job lay the foundation for much of what we will read in the rest of the Bible by starting out with answers to the Big Questions of life—

  • How did the world begin?
  • Why are there troubles in this world?
  • Is this all there is or is there life after death?

God hasn’t left us alone to answer these questions and many more that trouble us in our quiet moments and worst nightmares, as we will learn in this lesson. The material on life after death is especially encouraging as you’ll see in a close analysis of a key passage in Job.

Below is a downloadable PDF of the Notes, the chart talked about in the lesson, Questions, a link to the podcast, and a video of the lesson.

Resources to help you to read, listen to, and TEACH OTHERS through the Bible in the coming year

2022-12-29 by bible805

I truly believe that getting to know your Bible well by reading it in Chronological Order is THE MOST important thing you can do in the coming year and every year, not only for yourself, but for those you care for in your small groups, classes, or other ministry groups.

Resources to help you learn and teach through the Bible
This article has links to everything from motivational videos to schedules and blank journal pages you can use to teaching materials to help you go through the Bible in Chronological Order in the coming year. You can freely pass on all the resources here.

However, even though I feel deeply about this and have created many resources for it, I realized I hadn’t been very clear on exactly what I’ve done, the resources I have, and how I can help you in this vital area.

The podcast and video here are descriptions of the resources I have available to help you both do it for yourself and to teach others. Almost all are free, only one at a very low cost ($36 a year for all the lessons) so think of them as one last gift of the holiday season that may make the greatest impact in your spiritual life and the lives of those you influence in the coming year.

Below the podcast and video, I’ll overview the various resources and give you links to them.

To motivate people to read their Bibles in chronological order

At the links below I have videos, podcasts, blogs, and other media with the reasons WHY you should read your Bible in Chronological Order

Many people haven’t ever considered reading it that way because that isn’t the order our Bibles are in. To help them understand the benefits of it, why they probably haven’t read their Bibles that way, and why our Bibles aren’t in that order, I have these 3 background videos. Following them is ONE newly done motivational one, that can be used by itself with parts of the previous videos included in it. CLICK on any of the thumbnails to go to the video:

Proverbs, a reliable GPS for a disciple of Jesus

2022-12-21 by bible805

Proverbs, a reliable GPS for a disciple of JesusWe need a GPS, a global positioning system to help us live a life that pleases God.

A GPS in our car or phone can give us directions because it is linked to a system of satellites orbiting the earth that can pinpoint where we are within 1 centimeter of accuracy. We might be lost or not know how to get from place to place where we are on earth.

But a GPS system, far above us, can see the big picture and correctly guide us.

The book of Proverbs gives us the view of what our behavior from God’s viewpoint should be like that we need when we get lost in the weeds of daily decisions.

In this lesson, we’ll look at the book overall and then we’ll look at some specific situations in life that our world tells us to respond in one way, but the book of Proverbs gives us a different way to respond.

Below is the podcast and video of the lesson and below them the notes/transcript

Psalms, How to walk with Jesus in every part of life

2022-12-21 by bible805

Psalms, how to walk with JesusWe may not think of Psalms as a book of the Bible about discipleship, but in reality, it is one of the most instructive books in the Bible to help us follow Jesus in all areas of life, which is the essence of being a disciple.

Dallas Willard described discipleship in this way:

We need to be clear in our heads about what discipleship is. My definition:
A disciple is a person who has decided that the most important thing in their life is to learn how to do what Jesus said to do. A disciple is not a person who has things under control or knows a lot of things. Disciples simply are people who are constantly revising their affairs to carry through on their decision to follow Jesus. http://www.dwillard.org/articles/individual/rethinking-evangelism

The key part of his definition that applies to our lesson is: “people who are constantly revising their affairs to carry through on their decision to follow Jesus. “

Psalms will help us see what that means as they show us how God’s people interact with Him in many areas of life—all areas of life—including those we don’t think God cares about.

In this lesson, we’ll look at Psalms of Praise, Salvation History, Lament, and Imprecatory Psalms (these are the hard ones that call down judgment and curses on enemies). I’ll give examples of these specific types and THEN application suggestions and what we can learn from that Psalm for our walk with God and growth as Jesus’ disciples.

Following is the podcast and then the video of this lesson and below them the Notes/Transcript

Why Psalms and Proverbs are a DAILY part of our Chronological Order Bible Reading

2022-12-20 by bible805

Why Psalms and Proverbs are part of our daily Bible ReadingOn the Bible805 Bible Reading Schedule we are going through the Bible in Chronological order.

You’ll notice that along with the longer passage each day is a Psalm or a chapter in Proverbs.

In this short lesson, I’d like to take a few minutes to explain why we’re doing this. I’ll first explain how we are organizing the books of history and the prophets, and then why these books are different than the books that make up the chronological reading of the Bible, why it’s OK to put them where they are, and more than that, how reading them in this way will help you grow in your Christian life and encourage you on your journey.

This lesson is an overview of two longer lessons that go into a more detailed introduction of the books of Psalms and Proverbs, the links to them follow. Be sure to check them out.

•       Psalms: How to walk with Jesus in every part of life

•       Proverbs, a reliable GPS for a disciple of Jesus

Below is a copy of the chart, I talked about in the lesson (Click on the image to download it) and following is the podcast and video on the topic. Below them is the transcript of the lesson.
