-
- Christianity
Have you ever been asked to define a word you're familiar with, but don't have the depth of knowledge and clarity to actually put it into words? This week's song "Promises" by Maverick City Music sings of some characteristics of God that inspired more scrutiny on my part.
Join me in exploring the God of covenant in Genesis and Romans this week.
On this week's episode I discuss:
Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture - this week's Bible Interaction Tool Exercises include: Read in context Consult an outside resource Get your bearings with section headings The 30 Day Music Challenge - ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE HERE The value of rehearsing the faithfulness of God using specifics from the Bible and our own lives Positioning yourself to be held accountable for staying in God's Word Getting bold and creative in whatever season you're in to commit to interacting with God's Word An overview of the life of Abram in Genesis up to God's covenant with him What a covenant is and learning more about covenants in the Bible Outside resources I used this week Table Talk Magazine GotQuestions.org Timeline for Abraham How God pursues covenant with people and not the other way around The covenant ceremony between Abram and God in Genesis 15 Details of how covenants were ratified in Biblical times Reading Romans 4 in light of what we learn in Genesis 15-17
