Choose 1 of the following options and respond in a thread.
Option One:
Using the material from Chapters 31–33 in
Everyday Bible Study
(both text and videos), how would you answer the following
question? Remember to support your answer using material
from
as well as the Scriptures.
How is a good study of a particular Bible passage connected to
good teaching on that Bible passage?
Option Two:
You are part of the Pastoral Oversight Committee in your
church. Part of the responsibilities of this committee is to
evaluate the messages delivered by your pastor. The committee
notices that he struggles with introducing and concluding his
sermons. In general, his introductions seem to ramble on and
lack a connection to the main point of the sermon. The
conclusions are abrupt and give the impression that he simply
ran out of things to say.
Using the material from Chapters 31–33 in Everyday Bible
Study, (both text and videos), what 3 pieces of advice would
you give to your pastor in order to help him with his
introductions and conclusions? Your answer must provide a
concise explanation for your 3 pieces of advice. Be sure to
support your 3 points and their explanations from both Scripture
and from the

text.
