Royal Mess-ups

This lesson was written for the men of our class while the ladies were away celebrating Mother’s Day.  It highlights mistakes made by the first three kings of Israel and how we can both see ourselves in those mistakes and how we can avoid them.  Not to end on a negative note, the fourth king considered is Hezekiah and how we can follow his example of trust in God even when we face the impossible.

This is an expository look at Titus 2:1-10, where Paul tells Titus how he should be instructing the new believers in Crete to live and behave.  There are six groups of people he highlights:  older men, older women, younger women, younger men, ministers, and employees.

I updated the PDF in August of 2013 when I noticed some mistakes.  For all of the thousands who have downloaded it, please get the updated version.

Financial Check (2013)

This is a refresh of a study we did a number of years ago, timed for the tax deadline in the US.  It is made up of a number of diagnostic questions, most of which are not matters of sin, but could indicate that something is out of line in the area of finance, and that one may not be experiencing God’s best for their lives.  The central theme is one of trust in God.

This may just be another of the many lessons that I needed to hear.  This lesson is an update to the 2005 lesson Time, with additional Scripture references and content on the handout section and a new section with teaching notes.

Your Life Resumé

This lesson came from my being challenged to live my life as if I were writing my eulogy.  Having that perspective can cause us to focus our efforts and activities to things that matter.  David is the focus of the lesson.
