Garden City Church of Christ

Does it really change my life any if I become a Christian? It sure should!

Often the answers are "right now," and "why not?" But Jesus himself asks us to count the cost before being His disciples (Luke 14:25-33). This lesson is largely aimed at children who are near the age when they might make this decision, and for their parents.

John's account of Jesus focuses on different things than the "synoptic" gospels, including some memorable personal stories, like the woman at the well.

There are 4 accounts of (parts of) the life of Jesus. The first three in our Bibles (Matthew, Mark and Luke) are collectively called the Synoptic Gospels. They follow a similar outline, beginning (more or less) with Jesus' ministry in Galilee and ending with his death and resurrection in Jerusalem. The transition between those is the story we focus on in this lesson.

Ezekiel is a prophet at an unusual time: Some of Judah is captive in Babylon, including Ezekiel himself, while those remaining in Judah still have a little time. Spoiler alert: they blow it.

Dressing appropriately and covering our bodies are two important but separate commands from God. In this lesson, we look at how the Bible gives us guidelines for both.

Jeremiah told of the coming destruction to Judah, and was treated terribly for it. One of the bright spots of the book is the story of the Rechabites, who kept their ancestor's vow for about two centuries (Jeremiah 35).

Jesus told Paul, in a vision, to go to Rome. The voyage was anything but predictable. But Paul was up for it.

Isaiah is a prophet in the Old Testament, but the book is sometimes referred to by Christians as "the fifth gospel" due to its many vivid prophecies of the messiah. We look at the book overall and at chapter 6 where we see some wild sights.
