In our class times together, passages and themes from the book of James kept coming up and we decided it would be cool to change our tack a bit and do a Bible book study instead of our typical topical studies. I’m not sure they’re still glad they did because we are (I am) taking quite a bit of time going through, and I’ve gotten a bit too technical in the presentation. You’ll notice as we get close to the end of chapter 1 that I started doing better with that, and I think we’re doing quite well with a better balance of background, application, and velocity in Chapter 2 (next post). Here are the notes divided into four sections along with a bonus (no extra charge!) simple worksheet that I created for my kids since we are studying it with them in parallel.

BTW, if you’re interested in the discussion in the introduction about the actual name of the author of the book of James, you should also listen to the first eight or nine minutes of the Palm Sunday lesson, since that topic came up at the beginning of our time together that next week.

This multi-week study is a presentation of the research done for the book The Good News About Marriage by Shaunti Feldhahn. In the study, we debunk nearly universally held, often quoted statistics about marriage, remarriage, and divorce. Specifically:
- The divorce rate in the US is about 50%.
- Most marriages are not happy.
- The divorce rate in the church is the same as outside the church.
- Subsequent marriages have even less hope.
None of those “facts” are even close to true! This study should be an encouragement to anyone, married or not, that there is great hope for a happy, life-long marriage.
Here are the relevant links to the book on the iBook Store and Amazon.

I wrote this sequence of lessons in the Spring of 2006 as an installment of the Heroes of the Bible series. There are 25 lessons from the book of Genesis, some of which have not been developed or taught. They vary from 10 minute mini-lessons to multi-week affairs. I have never had such a large number of lessons come so easily, nor have I ever written lessons that I would likely never teach.

This study is mainly a compilation of biblical passages about marriage. The material includes a worksheet that can be printed and used for group study by assigning a different passage to each group and allowing them to discover the marriage-relevant instruction themselves.

Zip file containing two lessons in Genesis 26-30 from the lives of Jacob and Esau. The first lesson about Jacob and Rachel is titled “Husbands Against Wives” and reveals anger, bitterness, and depression and what may cause it. The second lesson is “Children Against Parents” and looks at the rebellion of Esau and what factors may have caused it.
