Moses and the exodus pgp
The document summarizes key events in the Book of Exodus from the Bible. It describes how the Israelites were enslaved in Egypt and Moses' early life as an Egyptian prince. God then calls on Moses to lead the Israelites out of slavery. Despite plagues sent by God, the Pharaoh refuses to release them. After the tenth plague kills the firstborn sons of Egypt, the Pharaoh lets the Israelites go. God parts the Red Sea to allow their escape and later gives the Ten Commandments to Moses at Mount Sinai, establishing a covenant with the Israelites.
Twelve Apostles
The document lists the 12 apostles of Jesus Christ: Simon Peter, James son of Zebedee, John, Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, Thaddaeus, and Judas Iscariot. It provides brief biographical details on each apostle, such as their background, how they came to follow Jesus, what they are known for, and in some cases how they died.
Holy Rosary
This document provides information about the Holy Rosary, including quotes attributed to Our Lady of Fatima encouraging daily recitation of the Rosary. It describes the composition of the Rosary including the four sets of Mysteries - Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, and Glorious - meditated upon in each of the decades. Finally, it shares the 15 Promises of the Virgin Mary for those who faithfully recite the Rosary daily.
The Ancient Judges of Israel
God appointed charismatic men and women known as Judges to lead the tribes of Israel. The Judges unified the people, led them to repentance, addressed spiritual problems, and defended against physical threats from enemies like the Midianites and Philistines. Some of the most notable Judges included Othniel, Ehud, Deborah, Gideon and Samson. Each Judge played an important role in rescuing Israel during times of crisis.
Ancient Israel (Division and Diaspora)
This PowerPoint presentation was created to accompany a lecture on the division of ancient Israel into two kingdoms (Israel and Judah) and the subsequent conquest of these kingdoms by the Assyrian, Babylonian, and Persian Empires. The fall of Israel and Judah resulted in a diaspora (scattering) of peoples across the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle Eastern regions. After Cyrus the Great of Persia conquered the Babylonian Empire, he allowed Jews to return to Jerusalem to rebuild their temple. In the centuries that followed, a messianic tradition developed, which promised a deliverer who would restore the Kingdom of Judah. Zionism emerged in the late 19th century with a similar goal of restoring a sovereign Jewish homeland. The modern nation of Israel, founded in 1948, represents the realization of the goals of the Zionist movement. To this day, modern Israelis contest over this land with its neighbors much like their ancestors did three thousand years ago.
The Temple of Solomon
Solomon’s Temple, also known as The First Temple.
The glory of The Lord fills the Temple.
God’s Glory depart from the Temple. (Ezekiel 10)
Understanding the Holy Trinity
The document discusses the Holy Trinity - that God exists as three persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) in one Godhead. It provides several key points:
1) The three persons are each fully God. Scripture presents the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as divine.
2) There is one God, not three. The persons are distinct yet equal, sharing the same essence, will, and attributes.
3) The doctrine is summarized as: God is three persons; each person is fully God; none is inferior; they are not three gods but one God.
Jesus, The Bread of Life
Jesus describes himself as the "Bread of Life" to convey that he alone can satisfy people's deepest spiritual needs and impart eternal life. He calls people to receive him by believing in him, which means reflecting on the meaning of his incarnation and death on the cross, making a decision to believe, and allowing him to become the substance of their lives. The Father draws people to Jesus to fulfill their need for true spiritual provision and sustenance.

Fall Of Man
The document discusses the fall of man according to the Bible. It describes the steps in the fall as unbelief, changing God's word, and disobedience. Eve was tempted in three ways - by what was good for food, pleasant to the eyes, and what was desired to make one wise. The results of the fall were curses on nature and consequences for the whole human race, including physical death, spiritual death, and eternal death. It defines physical life, physical death, spiritual life, spiritual death, eternal life, and eternal death.
Excellence through Christ's Strength
This document discusses the concept of trust in God. It defines trust as belief, confidence, and reliance. Trusting in God means believing that He is our creator, provider, healer, and deliverer based on what is revealed about Him in scripture. The document encourages placing full reliance and dependence on God, as Daniel and others did when facing danger. It suggests getting to know God through reading His word and communing with Him in order to strengthen trust based on experience. Overall, the key message is that to truly trust is to believe in God's power, character, and faithfulness as revealed in the Bible.

It discusses the structure, main characters like Deborah, Gideon and Samson, themes of sinning and repentance, and God delivering the Israelites from their enemies.

1 samuel 3:1-10 Presentation Notes
The one-night passage describes Samuel hearing God's call three times while ministering before the Lord under Eli's guidance in the house of the Lord. Though Eli's eyes were weak, he did not realize it was God calling Samuel until the third time. Eli then told Samuel to respond "Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening" if called again. The Lord then spoke, and Samuel responded as instructed, showing he was ready to listen to God.
Be strong and courageous
The document tells a story about elephants that were found with ropes around their legs. It was believed the elephants felt they could not break free from the ropes, even though the ropes were old and weak. This is analogous to how people can feel held back by past failures or limitations others have placed on them. The document encourages readers to break free from these perceived "ropes" and pursue their goals and dreams, having faith that with God's help, they have the strength and ability to succeed. It provides several quotes on having courage, not accepting boundaries of the past, and trusting that God will be with you.

- As food, the Eucharist nourishes our souls and unites us to Christ and one another through Holy Communion.

Spiritual, soul and body
This document discusses the tripartite nature of man as consisting of spirit, soul, and body. It provides details on the functions and parts of each:
The spirit allows man to contact, receive, and contain God. The soul allows man to be an expression and reflection of God through its parts - the will, emotions, and mind. The body uses the five senses and is presented to God as a sacrifice, used for man's existence, and for reasonable service to himself, family, society, church, and God.
The document encourages prophesying to each part of man's being to understand its constitution and functions more fully.
The prophet isaiah
The Book of Isaiah was written between the 8th-6th centuries BC and attributed to three authors: Isaiah son of Amoz who prophesied in the 8th century; an exile disciple called Second Isaiah; and a post-exilic writer called Third Isaiah. Isaiah forms the idea that Jerusalem has a future with God as a city of justice and peace. The book contains prophecies, indictments of Israel/Judah for failing to create a just society, and hope for those disillusioned by the lack of progress. It conveys that a society of peace is possible when people cooperate with God's plans for justice.

Hope
The document discusses the history of division among God's people in Israel and Judah. It describes how the 12 tribes of Israel struggled with conflict under Jacob and King David. The northern 10 tribes eventually separated from Judah and Benjamin. During the time of King Ahaz, Israel and Aram attacked Judah but the prophet Isaiah foretold that a child would be born who would bring peace and rule over God's people as a mighty God and prince of peace, referring to Jesus Christ. The document finds hope for today's divisions in Christ's coming as ruler over all.
Sign of Immanuel
God sends Isaiah and another prophet to reassure King Ahaz during a time of crisis for the people of Judah. God offers Ahaz a sign that a virgin will conceive and bear a son named Immanuel, meaning "God with us". This prophecy is fulfilled by the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, who is God present with humanity. Though Ahaz refuses the sign, the prophecy signifies God's power and control over the situation, and verifies his promise of presence with his people.

The Emotionally Healthy Church Notes
1. Samuel confronted King Saul for disobeying God's command to completely destroy the Amalekites, sparing their king. Samuel told Saul that obedience is better than sacrifice and God has rejected him as king.
2. God then instructed Samuel to anoint one of Jesse's sons from Bethlehem as the new king. Samuel did as God commanded and selected David to be anointed as Saul's successor.
3. Saul's disobedience and pride led to his downfall as king, while David's humility and obedience to God despite difficulties prepared him to become a greater king than Saul.
The crucified God

It calls for introspection on challenges around race, gender, and economics, and examining how Native Americans have been mistreated. It quotes the racist rhetoric used to justify imprisoning Japanese Americans during WWII. The document advocates studying, voting, praying, and acting to further King Jesus' vision of justice.
Lessons from an ancient prophet
This document provides a summary of the prophet Amos and his teachings from ancient Israel. It discusses that Amos was a shepherd from Tekoa in Judah who was called by God to prophesy to Israel around 760 BC. Amos boldly denounced the sins of Israel, including injustice, corruption, idolatry, and moral decay. Though Israel was prosperous, Amos warned the people had forgotten God and would face his judgment unless they repented. The summary examines Amos' message, imagery, and warnings of coming punishment for Israel's disobedience to God's laws.
