Sunday, April 4th

Matt taught a great lesson on Jonah. He talked about the history of the Jewish people. They had been conquered by Assyria during the time of Jonah. They also believe that many Jews were returning from captivity in Babylon where many of them had intermarried. They were also dealing with the destruction of the temple and the impact that that had on the Jewish people. Tune in for the second half of Jonah on Sunday.

Unfortunately, Jeremy and I didn't make it to Sunday School this morning, but we believe that Gayle will be teaching next week. She'll be wrapping up her series on Making Sense of Paul.

Gayle reviewed our lessons on Paul from the book Understanding Paul by Virginia Wiles.

She went back over the outline of how Paul says that...

• Sin and the law separates us from God (the law cannot be fully followed because of the short comings of sin)
• Gentiles are also called to follow God
• God wants to fulfill His convenant by bringing shalom to the world.
• God justifies the ungodly through Christ. He loves all people--unconditionally, even the most evil of people.

Matt taught our first lesson of the year. We discussed how Paul tells Christians not to despise each other over differences of opinion. What ever you do, do it for the glory of God.
