Hebrews 11:29-12:2

8/14/2016

0 Comments

 
Thoughts:          Biblical scholars are unsure who was the author of the book of Hebrews.  This author knew the Old Testament well, citing people from these scriptures as shining examples of faith.
 
Some of these people are immediately familiar to us; others are more obscure.  Can you match these seven Old Testament people with their brief descriptions?
 
              ____ Gideon                    a.  harlot who protected two Israeli spies
 
              ____ Samuel                    b.  general who defeated the Ammonites
 
              ____ David                       c.  judge who delivered Israel from the Midianites
 
              ____ Rahab                      d.  general who led Israel against the Cananites
 
              ____ Barak                       e.  man who was known for his great strength
 
              ____ Jephthah                 f.  second king of Israel
 
              ____ Samson                   g.  prophet and judge
 
Discussion:        Who of these seven people – in your opinion – is most admirable?
 
Activity:              Choose a lesser known person and learn about him or her.
____________________________________________________________________________________________Remember in prayer this week Judy Conley, Audrey Cowsert, Vivian Hansard, Betty Kalvoda (knee surgery), Sandy Northey, Mildred Parker, Chris Weemhoff at home, Thelma Welbaum at Heartland, and the family of Randy Wilson on the death of his father
 
THIS SATURDAY PLEASE COME TO CHURCH FROM 9:00 TO NOON TO HELP OUR TRUSTEES SPRUCE UP, FIX UP, PAINT UP, AND TAKE CARE OF SOME SUMMER TASKS BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE.  REFRESHMENTS WILL GREET YOU, STAY FOR ONE HOUR, TWO HOURS OR THREE HOURS.  WE NEED YOUR HELP.
