April 13th: Interpreting Scripture

First, a quick re-cap of last week's small group (in case you missed it or have forgotten). We talked about the difficulties & benefits of reading the Bible, along with the common pitfalls of reading & interpreting scripture. We also agreed to help each other form good habits of studying the Bible through this series. To that end, on our own this week, we're reading 1st Peter 1:3-9 and writing down all of the observations -- just observations, not inferences -- we can make in that passage. So, come to group on Tuesday prepared to share what you observed. If you were at group last week, make sure to bring your notebook this week! (and if you missed group, we'll have a notebook for you on Tuesday!)

This Tuesday, Sarah will be picking up where she left off, leading us in a discussion about how to interpret scripture rightly and what the differences are among the various Bible translations out there. This kinda goes along with "How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth" Chapters 1 & 2, if you're interested in following along in that book. See you at the Shelleys' house at 7:30pm on Tuesday April 13th!
