22nd April AM – Joshua 1

The book of Joshua is one that can elicit a negative reaction in our day. It is a book of conquest and war and bloodshed. What does the Bible have to say about it? How does this accord with the nature and character of God?

15th April PM – 1 Peter 4

In the face of a terrible storm of persecution that was coming over the Philippian church, Peter asks the church to rejoice! How are we to understand this seemingly incongruous advice?

15th April AM – 2 Timothy 4

2 Timothy ends with Paul’s last bits of advice to Timothy about various enemies of the gospel, and his desire to see his beloved co-worker again. There is much about to learn about the life of the church from the close of this epistle.

8th April PM – 1 Peter 4

1st April PM – 1 Peter 4
