Lesson Seven: The Rights of a Son

Like many of the lessons from Paul's letters, this one appears deceptively simple, but it asks a complex and difficult question. Why, as children of God, do we often settle to act like slaves? What's in it for us to cling to our old selves when we are given the chance to become new again?

Certainly something to think about, isn't it?

As luck would have it, our catechism lesson also fits in well with the scripture part of our study, so we should be able to have a good discussion.

Lesson Six: The Priority of the Promise

It's tough getting back to business after such a long break, but the rest was welcome. We should all be ready to go in the New Year.

This lesson is a good one to ease us back into the discipline of our study. The amount of scripture that we cover is small and quite objective. As a bonus, the chapter in our catechism fits in perfectly with this particular portion of Galatians. We should have a good discussion.

If you haven't been to the site for awhile, do yourself a favor and scroll down and watch the video "The Christmas Story." It's so sweet; it will do your heart good.

See everyone on January 20. Lots to cover, so we start at 9:00 sharp!
