Families of the Bible
Families of the Bible
A New Sunday Morning Bible Study
Isn’t it extraordinary
that God describes Himself in family terms, as a Father and a Son? Or maybe
it’s the other way around – that God’s wonderful design for our lives is
derived from His holy identity? Isn’t it extraordinary that the Savior came
into our world just as we did – born wet and naked, defenseless, scared, and
hungry – and that His first needs were met by … a mother and stepfather?
God has created us to have
relationships. With Him. And with each other.
You are invited to a new Sunday
morning Bible study about these familial relationships entitled, “Families
Rooted in Grace.” We will explore familiar biblical family relationships – from
Adam and Eve to Mary and her son, Jesus – and the challenges those families
faced. Each lesson extracts Scripture truths from a biblical family
circumstance and applies them to contemporary family life. The topics covered
in Families of the Bible will likely apply to every family at some
time.
