Formations lesson for Nov. 23: Walking a Narrow Line

Clock November 14 2008 by Shane Nixon, Institutional Director of Information Services, Baptist Children’s Homes of North Carolina
Focal Passage: Daniel 1:1-21 “Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself.” That is how the New King James version of the Bible translates the first part of Daniel 1:8. A careful study of the words translated “purposed in his heart” will lead to something akin to “setting one’s mind” to doing something, but I think this is more. Daniel decided in his heart to follow Go...

Bible Studies for Life lesson for Nov. 23: My Heart-Healthy Church

Clock November 14 2008 by Sharon Johnson Pond, Founder of Other Side Jamaica and author
Focal Passage: Romans 14:1, 10-13, 19-21; 15:1-6 When John, Marcus and I were home on what was then called “furlough” from serving in Africa, we went to visit a friend of ours. She was a retired missionary, and we had a meal with her and her 90-year-old aunt. The aunt watched as I ate and kept shaking her head, until finally, she asked me, “What are you doing?” I’ll explain now what I was do...

Formations lesson for Nov. 16: Rocking the Boat

Clock November 7 2008 by Shane Nixon, Institutional Director of Information Services, Baptist Children’s Homes of North Carolina
Focal Passage: Amos 2:6-16 If you ask the friend I have had the longest what he does for a living, his answer will immediately be “TMI.” TMI, for those of you who don’t know, is the 21st century way to say that someone has shared too much; they have given you too much information. He is now a tobacco and cattle farmer in my hometown but that won’t be his entire answer. Actually to call him ...

Bible Studies for Life lesson for Nov. 16: Key Christian Duties

Clock November 7 2008 by Sharon Johnson Pond, Founder of Other Side Jamaica and author
Focal Passage: Romans 13:1-14 I just finished a series of lessons for 10-year-old children in Sunday School at my son’s church. With the help of their teacher, I was trying to let the children catch a glimpse of life in Jesus’ time. We had a time of “school,” but we also visited two marketplace shops each Sunday. We tasted, smelled, touched, looked at, and most fun of all, bargained for, differ...

Formations Sunday School Lesson for Nov. 9: Avoiding Offense

Clock October 28 2008 by Shane Nixon, Institutional Director of Information Services, Baptist Children’s Homes of North Carolina
Focal Passage: Titus 2:1-15 In response to the presenter’s honest attempt to say something in a non-offensive way at a recent seminar I attended, a person from the back of the room shouted out mockingly that “Jesus never worried about being politically correct.” Now I know a strong biblical case can be made that there were times when Jesus was intentionally politically incorrect, but I don’t...

Option vote kicks air from committee’s lungs

Norman Jameson
That hissing sound you hear is air whooshing from the lungs of members of the Giving Plans Study Committee—and the 45 percent of messengers who supported their proposal to adopt a single giving plan, with options. The other 55 percent of messengers said clearly they do not want the option of allowing churches to pass money to the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship through the Baptist State Convention...
