Stephen: The First Christian Martyr

Acts 7:54-8:1a ~ Stephen: The First Christian Martyr

Posted on February 14, 2018 by Laura Zielke

This week we finally finished our deep dive into Stephen’s speech in Acts 7 and witnessed his stoning (or lynching, depending on how you look at it). We discussed Stephen’s vision that he had prior to his stoning and the specific title he used for Jesus: Son of Man.  We observed the people take the law…

Who's Really on Trial Here?

Acts 7:51-56 ~ Who’s Really on Trial Here?

Posted on February 12, 2018February 14, 2018 by Laura Zielke

This week we got back to where we had left off with the “peroratio” (i.e., conclusion) of Stephen’s speech in Acts 7. It’s at this point the reason for his rehashing the history of Israel becomes crystal clear: Stephen has been building a case not merely to proclaim his innocence, but also to prove the…

Acts 7 - This Is That Moses

Acts 7:17-38 ~ This is THAT Moses

Posted on February 3, 2018February 3, 2018 by Laura Zielke

This week we continued our in-depth study of Stephen’s defense speech before the Sanhedrin. Once again, Stephen focused on leaders who worshipped God pre-Temple and outside of the promised land. As he recounted Moses’ defining moments, he made it clear that: he was not anti-Moses; Moses met with God outside the promised land; and Moses…

Acts 7: More than Reviewing History

Acts 7:1-8:4 ~ More than Reviewing History

Posted on December 8, 2017 by Laura Zielke

Have you ever wondered why Stephen reviewed Israel’s history with the experts in the Law? Did he not realize they already knew these stories? Probably by memory? Or was he doing something else? This week we read through Stephen’s entire speech, his murder, and what happened as a result of it. Because this was an…

The Ready Response of Rabban Gamaliel

Acts 5:27-42 ~ The Ready Response of Rabban Gamaliel

Posted on October 28, 2017October 28, 2017 by Laura Zielke

This week we finished up with Acts chapter 5, and there was much rejoicing! We took a step outside the Christian bubble to look at this section from the angle of the Sanhedrin. We discussed the irony in their refusal to speak the name of Jesus and how Gamaliel’s response to the situation was probably…

Annas & Caiaphas

Acts 5:21-26 ~ High Priest(s) Annas & Caiaphas

Posted on October 16, 2017October 17, 2017 by Laura Zielke

This week our guest teacher, Craig Bondy, guided the class in a more accurate understanding of the high priesthood in the Old Testament versus that of first century Judea. Building on this, we looked up a number of passages in the Gospels and Acts which refer to the High Priest as either Annas or Caiaphas….

Posted @withregram • @nativelandnet #YouAreOnNativeLand Powerful image. Posted @withregram • @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 • @harriet_lerner “Abortion 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, “ Forgo the Empire. Build yourself a blanket fort. Confidence. A life.” Posted @withregram • @melaninmajority Celebrate your freedom & privileges each & every day. Happy Juneteenth! ♥️💚🖤💪🏾 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.⁣
