A review of what we’ve learned 🤔 

We’ve covered a lot of ground this week!

We’ve learned:

• Scripture is “breathed out by God” (theopneustos) for the purpose of equipping us (exartizo) for every good work, like an athlete trains for competition

• The Almighty God of the universe has revealed himself to us in written form through authors guided by the Holy Spirit…and it all testifies about Jesus

• Scripture teaches, corrects, and equips us to live out our call to:

  • Be in relationship with God

  • Represent God to the world

When we immerse ourselves in God’s Word and presence, the Spirit transforms us from the inside out!

The Bible is a gift that connects us to and invites us into the grand redemptive story God is writing — culminating in Christ.

Not only does the Bible help us navigate life today, it tells us of the future hope we have for tomorrow.
