Sunday School with Linda on hermeneutics

Posted by seanho on Sun 06 August 2006

English Sunday school at Fraserlands tends not to be terribly well-attended, mostly because it's at 9:15am rather than 11am as it is at the Knight St. campus. The class in the Fireside room has a pretty broad range of people, from community college students on up to parents of college students. Over the summer, Linda is leading a class on how to study the Bible. I like her attitude towards Scripture: the deeper we dive into the Word of God, the more it comes alive; and when we come across a difficult or controversial passage, our response should not be to throw up our hands and dismiss Scripture, but to dig even deeper, reading the passage in context, so as not to misinterpret it. Here Linda is excitedly diagramming the sentence flow of Ephesians 2:4-5.
