Journey through the Bible

Bible Study

Journey through the Bible with Us!

Welcome to Journey through the Bible. This class was taught on a weekly basis when we gathered in person (pre-pandemic) to study the Scriptures verse-by-verse. By studying only a few verses at a time, our slow pace allows us the chance to dig into history, geography, customs, archaeology, and more to gain a clear understanding of the text.

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”

2 Timothy 3:16

Focal passages sometimes overlap due to the fact that the class is interactive and taught in a discussion format. Some weeks we get farther than others depending on the number of questions asked.

NOTICE: SEPTEMBER 24, 2020
This class is no longer actively meeting, so no new recordings will be added to this page for the foreseeable future. Thanks for allowing us to be part of your lives.

Posted @withregram β€’ @nativelandnet #YouAreOnNativeLand Powerful image. Posted @withregram β€’ @susandavid_phd We all have those days (or weeks) when everything just feels wrong. So true. I love the Lab because the members are amazing humans who are changing the world! Posted @withregram β€’ @harriet_lerner β€œAbortion is a sensitive issue for a lot of people. There are strong feelings about what others should and shouldn't do, what's "reasonable" or too far in terms of laws. But we're not talking about feelings. This is about sending doctors to prison, about the government forcing people to submit to pregnancy and childbirth against their will.” Image says, β€œ Forgo the Empire. Build yourself a blanket fort. Confidence. A life.” Posted @withregram β€’ @melaninmajority Celebrate your freedom & privileges each & every day. Happy Juneteenth! β™₯οΈπŸ’šπŸ–€πŸ’ͺ🏾 In honor of Juneteenth, I'd like to recommend a new book to those who are interested in the history of the United States and also offer an entry point for understanding why critical race theory is important to healing our country.⁣
