Introduction of Class Format

I am going to use this Blog to post my notes each week after class and other words of encouragement through out the week. I hope you find it helpful!!

Last week we covered the format of this class which includes homework that are Daily devotions studying the names of God. There is a guide for pronouncing the Hebrew names of God (see page 193)

Once a week we will go over the comments you make and discuss the Small group questions (an example is found on page 7). I encourage you to commit the Memory Verses (example on page 6) to memory, but we will not go around and see who has memorized what.

During our study, we will implement a few [new] Bible study techniques that are unique to Precept Ministries. An overview of some of these can be found on the Inductive study pages beginning on page 199 (over the next week you may want to become familiar with what the book says about key words, marking key words and making lists).

During this study on the names of God you will encounter strength for your worst trials, comfort for your heart’s deepest pain, and provisions for your soul’s greatest need. As you come to know Him more fully - the power of His glorious name and the depth of His infinite love - your walk with God will be transformed and your faith will be increased.

Kay Arthur often says “Hangeth in there Beloved” and I encourage you to do just that. The devil will do all he can to keep you from finishing this study. Do as much as you can strive to complete the work and attend the discussions. I will be praying for you and be praying for each other.

In His Love,
Ellen
