As I typically do at the beginning of each new year, this lesson is a special challenge for the year for my group. It is a call to commit to daily Bible reading. First, we recognize why we so often need to make New Year’s resolutions: a lack of self-discipline. Next we come to understand how a lack of self-discipline is rooted in our unwillingness to control our minds. Then we learn how daily Bible reading will positively affect our lives by bringing our thoughts in line with God’s and help us make better choices.
You’ll notice that some of the presentation notes are blank. That’s because I have taught that content before and didn’t have time to type in the explanations.

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 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.
This material was written in support of the Cambodia mission in January 2006. It’s not in a lesson format since it was intended to be combined with the other training material and then translated into Khmer. It has since been used in other international training efforts and is useful for basic Christian marital, parental, and domestic topics.
