Sunday School 1/6/2007--Genesis 46-47

Happy 2008!!!

I hope that you had an exciting and worshipful holiday season and are looking forward to an awesome year in 2008. We have several awesome things coming up this month and I am excited to share them with you! (Sorry for the length of this post, but there's a lot to share)...

Next Sunday, January 13th, we will have our quarterly young adult fellowship during the Sunday School hour, so be prepared for an AWESOME time with our fellow young adult classes and, from what I hear, some really great food!

We will begin our midweek Bible Study on Thursday, January 17th from 7:00pm-8:30pm (-ish). We will be studying the book of Philippians using a video series from Mars Hill Church in Seattle, WA. I am very excited about this study and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I have. Here is a link to the Promo for the study (no peeking on the rest of the series, though...don't ruin your appetite :)).

We will be meeting at my house, so if you need directions, send me an email (living2serve@gmail.com) or, leave me a voice mail using the new "Call Me" feature on the site.

Speaking of the "Call Me" link, I wanted to point out this new feature and some cool uses. Obviously, it's a quick way to leave a message for me and a good way for visitors to leave comments or questions about our class. But I also would like it to be used as a discussion tool as well. Whenever you have a great thought about our lesson or something else in your day you want to share with the class, I can post the audio file to the blog for everyone else to hear and respond to (I'll always get your permission before I do, so don't worry). YOU can have direct impact in the lives of your fellow 20somethings as well as visitors to our site who may be looking for an encouraging word!!!

We are almost through the book of Genesis!!!! (Yippee!!) After about a year of studying this book, we are nearing the end and so I'm looking for your input and suggestions on where to go next. Do you want to stay in the Old Testament or switch it up with a New Testament study? Do you want to stick with a chapter-by-chapter study or perhaps a topical study? Your ideas and comments/thoughts will help to decide what's up next for the class....After all, it's YOUR class and I want to teach what YOU want to study! Please let me know your thoughts ASAP!

Also, on that note, I have posted the last 2 outlines, from 12/23 and from today (I missed last week due to sickness). The links are below for you. I hope that you find them useful in future studies as well.

Genesis 44-45 (12/23/2007)
Genesis 46-47 (1/6/2008)

Hope you all have a great week!!!!
