Weekly Slideshow: Obeying God’s Law

Part of the Bible We’d Like to Ignore

God’s Rules for the Sticky Parts of Life

Some of the Bible’s toughest advice is found in this week’s lectionary—yet it is the part of life that we often need the most help with.

 

The lessons deal with getting along with each other and with God. It’s tough living a godly life when we are filing divorce papers, suing one another, feeling jealousy, hatred and disagreement—all those times when we’d rather not talk to one another distance us from God.

 

Much of this week’s slideshow concentrates on the Old Testament lessons from Deuteronomy 30:15-20 and Psalm 119:1-8. The New Testament lessons are Matthew 5:21-37 and 1 Corinthians 3:1-9.

 

We attempt to find thought-provoking images—the kind that can start discussions or illustrate an important point. You’ll see more than mountain vistas and waterfalls which are the focus of many scripture slideshows.

 

We started this series six-weeks ago and so far about 300 people are viewing the slideshows each week.

 

It’s a learning curve for us as the software for slideshows is not the most stable. Line breaks can be funky and transitions often don’t work online.

 

The shows are in raw Powerpoint format and therefore you can edit them easily for your system and needs.
