East Side Bible Chat: October 2007
http://esbiblechat.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
East Side Bible Chat. Wednesday, October 24, 2007. How do you love? This week we'll be looking at 1 John 3:11-18, and we will be looking at love from a slightly different perspective. In Chapter 2, we saw love as evidence that we are walking in the light. Now we see love as a matter of life and death. Let's look briefly at four "levels" of love discussed in this passage:. Okay, I'm good here. I never killed anyone. Come on John, I mean, I don't really. Anyone. What's that? Look at Matthew 5:21-22? We cer...

http://esbiblechat.blogspot.com/2008/04/counter-cultural-christianity.html
East Side Bible Chat. Thursday, April 3, 2008. Counter-Cultural Christianity - Introduction. Met in the temple courts daily, devoted to the teaching of the apostles. So, we can meet here daily and discuss Matthew's teaching! Back to our study. This week, we'll be looking at some introductory material to the Sermon on the Mount. We'll be covering some text from Matthew 3 and 4 and possibly some of the Beatitudes. Have you thought about why this study is entitled Counter-Cultural Christianity? If you get a...

East Side Bible Chat: Hope in Jesus Purifies
http://esbiblechat.blogspot.com/2007/10/hope-in-jesus-purifies.html
East Side Bible Chat. Tuesday, October 9, 2007. Hope in Jesus Purifies. I'm looking at I John 3:1-10 right now, and a couple of things are really jumping out to me. First, look at the 3:1-3. I have seen this verse a few times lately, and it really intrigues me. First, just sitting back for a second to say with John - Wow! Can you believe that we are children of God! Meditate on this for a moment. Everyone who hopes in Jesus purifies himself as Jesus is pure. What are you hoping in? Rom 12:2) along with g...

East Side Bible Chat. Tuesday, August 28, 2007. Ok, so that's just an intial title. I was anxious to get this out there so I just threw that one up there. We're certainly open to suggestions. Anyway, this is a trial run. Craig and I would like a way to keep open communication going throughout the week, and this is a way to do so and be kinda hip and cool at the same time :) ( its the best I can do).

East Side Bible Chat: Promises of the Beatitudes
http://esbiblechat.blogspot.com/2008/04/promises-of-beatitudes.html
East Side Bible Chat. Tuesday, April 15, 2008. Promises of the Beatitudes. We talked much about the characteristics. In the first 4 beatitudes, but we didn't get enough time to talk about the promises. Just a quick post to focus on 2 of the promises we didn't. Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. No one comes to the Father except through me (John 14:6b). Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. Theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

East Side Bible Chat: September 2007
http://esbiblechat.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
East Side Bible Chat. Monday, September 24, 2007. Who do you love? We're still looking at I John this week - and probably a few more weeks to come ;). This week, I. We'll be looking at Chapter 2:12-17. Maybe more, but we'll just have to see how the week goes and how the Lord leads. I know we will definitely spend quite a bit of our time discussing verses 15-17 (hence, the title). These verses seem to state emphatically that we should not love the world. Take a look:. What makes jump for joy? I think that...

East Side Bible Chat: Suffering and the New Birth
http://esbiblechat.blogspot.com/2008/03/suffering-and-new-birth.html
East Side Bible Chat. Wednesday, March 5, 2008. Suffering and the New Birth. For today's discussion, I wanted to focus on something I brought up yesterday. First, let me just say that I'm now convinced by scripture that we are called to a life of sacrifice and at times, suffering, as we carry out our part of the cause of Christ in this world. Here are a few scriptures (there are more):. So, because I'm convinced I'm called to sacrifice and, at times, suffer for the cause of Christ, some questions come to...

East Side Bible Chat: March 2008
http://esbiblechat.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
East Side Bible Chat. Wednesday, March 5, 2008. Suffering: Are you ready? This past Sunday, we discussed several saints who endured suffering with joy because of their faith in Christ. Just to recap:. We talked about Joni Eareckson Tada, who was paralyzed when she was 17 and now must use a wheel chair and cannot do much for herself. She has dedicated her life though to serving others and sharing her story, and she now considers her paralysis a blessing because it has drawn her near to God. That's where I...
