Full Disclosure 180 Sr Oct 15/08

This Week: Contraband: 1 Creation and Brokenness:

We are working through the major themes of the Bible in this Contraband series. 4 sessions, 8 words and a summation of the themes of the Bible. A lofty goal and some serious study notes.

It is easier to break than to create, easier to tangle than to untangle, easier to create tension than to remove it, easier to sever relationships than to repair them. When creation was fresh it was perfect, but it didn't take long (chapter 2) to start messing it up. As soon as that first law was broken, it severed all the perfect relationships that existed. Now we suffer being surrounded by brokenness. That is just what we know and we ache because of it. How will save us from this sharp, jagged, broken world?

Next Week: QU: Apologetics 1: God: Does He exist? Does it matter? How can we know? Does it make sense to believe in God? What can give me confidence, boldness, hope in my faith?
Come and find out.
We will be discussing one of the greatest questions of philosophy.
Advance notice would be awesome so that we may prepare adequate quantities of resources.
