BIBLE STUDY FELLOWSHIP




I'm pumped. BSF begins this week. In fact, for me tonight. This year's study is on Matthew.




Bible Study Fellowship is an international, non-denominational, intense study of the Word. We meet at 6:55 for greetings, announcements, and two hymns. Then we go to our small group discussions with 15-20 Christian men and a discussion leader. Then back to the auditorium for another hymn of worship and lecture from our teaching leader. It lasts 45 minutes, and I'm out of there at 8:45. We begin in September and wind down in Mid-May, with vacations at Christmas and around Easter.

It's really a blessing to get to meet weekly with 200 Christian men and to get their insights into scripture. Also, the homework keeps me in the Word on a daily basis. It sharpens my focus upward where it should be. (Now do you see the BSF connection with the picture?)

If you are fortunate to live in a large community that offers mens, womens, and mixed classes for young adults, then I'd urge you to enroll. You won't be sorry you did.
