Tuesday Night Book/ Bible Study

Hello friends,
I am so happy to invite you this summer to a book and Bible study that I will be in charge of as part of my internship responsibilities.  We will be going through the book Why God Created the World by Ben Stevens.

I am so happy to revisit this book with you.  It has made a profound impact on my life.

This study will take place on Tuesday nights at 7.  My plan is to begin on May 27th.  I am not sure where it will be, because I need to know how many individuals are interested in attending.  Please either sign up on the bulletin board in the church hallway or email me at drew.bundy@my.bbc.edu.  That address may change in the future, because Baptist Bible College has officially changed to Summit University.  I will keep you updated on that.

This is a time for people of many ages to come together and grow together in our understanding of God and our role in His world.  I look forward to working with you.

To participate in the study, I ask that you endeavor to regularly attend as you are able, and to bring a copy of the Bible and Why God Created the World.  It is a fairly easy book to get a hold of; it is available as a hard copy from many websites, and it is available on both kindle store and iBooks.  If you need further help getting a copy please email me.  It usually costs around $10.

Below I have linked a video of the author describing the book and quoted the back of the book so that you may get a sense of what it is about.

"From the mind of one of America's greatest theologians, Jonathan Edwards, comes a powerful discussion about why God created the universe and everything that exists.  It's a classical work that has transformed theological thought and has impacted individual lives like none other.  Now, this thought-provoking, paradigm-shifting modern adaptation of one of the most important theological works of all time challenges the pop-theological notions that God created our world because He was lonely or insufficient in Himself.  Explore these truths through this updated version paraphrased especially for today.  Discover, through logically applied Scripture, the real reason God created man and the world.  And see why many of Christianity's greatest modern thinkers count it among the most important and life-changing cooks they've ever read."
