Chronological Bible Study: Grand Finale Tonight!
Tonight is the grand finale of the Chronological Bible Study – week 15. It’s been a great 15 weeks! And now we have a set of material that we can use again.
This week’s theme is The Triumph of the Lamb, based around Revelation 5. Also, we’re going to do a whirlwind tour of the last 15 weeks, and take a look at the themes (or – theme!) that run throughout Scripture.
We would appreciate your prayers as we close this study. Pray that each person would continue to learn about the Gospel and God’s Word.
Jesus said…
because you think that in them
you have eternal life;
and it is they that bear witness about me,
yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life.
(John 5:39-40)
Here’s a brief video I came across recently that touches on many of the topics we talked about in our study…

Yes, today is the big day. Here are some thoughts after the opening ceremonies….
Unscrewing the Door: A Sunday Ritual (Video)
… or, "coming unhinged". Or, "you belong in the kitchen" …
Last Sunday morning (the 15th of August 2010) I took some pictures and video during our time together as a church (Iglesia BÃblica Sendero de Vida Jesús María – that is, Path of Life Bible Church Jesús María). This video shows some of that, along with some thoughts. And that brings us to something we want to pray about and work towards.

Mexican Summer Missionaries 2010
I just read a brief report from fellow CAM missionaries the Buhlers. The report was all about the summer missionary program here in Mexico, that encourages Christian youth to reach out around Mexico using kids’ clubs. Every year thousands of children hear about the Lord Jesus in these clubs.
The training took place in July in Mexico City this year. 23 youth took the training – they represented 15 different churches and 8 states of Mexico!
Again many children heard the Gospel, and many made confessions of faith. The Buhlers ask for prayer for these children, as follow-up and discipleship continue in various parts of Mexico.
You can see a picture of the summer missionaries on the Buhler’s blog in their report on the training time here.
