The Book of James – Chapter 3

Posted by Jonathan Bingham on December 7, 2016 under Audio, Bible study, Multiweek, Series | Be the First to Comment

Our study through the book of James continues into chapter 3 with an appropriate balance and reasonable speed.  You’ll notice that my study notes changed format with this study.  My Bible program of 20+ years finally broke with the latest MacOS update, so I had to (hurriedly) buy and get up to speed on the excellent, but incredibly pricey Logos.  Here are the notes divided into sections.

James Section 3A – The Dangers of the Tongue

James Section 3B – Wisdom from Above

A Father’s Legacy

Posted by Jonathan Bingham on August 31, 2014 under Bible study, Multiweek | Be the First to Comment

For most children, their father will be one of the two greatest influences in their entire lives. Whether that influence is positive or maximized depends upon choices the father makes.

This lesson looks at the impact a father can have on his children by having a great lifelong influence.

(Yes, the lesson had at least two more sections I was planning to add, but decided to go to another topic before finishing it.)

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.
