Culture & Context: Exodus
Can it be “fun” to study Exodus? Maybe the phrase should be “eye-opening” when we consider some of what we will see in this book. A burning bush. A pillar of cloud. A river of blood. Frogs falling from the sky! An entire Sea that splits and has a dry bottom to speed Israelites across to freedom. We have an opportunity to journal all of these miraculous and explosive events!


Culture & Context: The Gospel of Luke
Year 2 begins with the gospel of Luke. He is not identified by name in the gospel, but was well known by early believers. Acts 27:1- 28:15 places the author in Rome along with the apostle Paul. Luke was not an apostle nor did he witness to the gospel events; however, being a companion of Paul, who was an apostle of Jesus, gave him direct access to source material. Both his gospel and the book of Acts were written in letter form to Theophilus.


Culture & Context: The Gospel of John
Year 1 begins with the gospel of John. Wait- we don’t start with Genesis? Don’t worry...Genesis is the next
book. John is an excellent starting place because it is an evangelistic book- John wrote this book to
persuade people to come to a saving belief in Jesus. I have personally done in-depth Bible studies of John
several times and have seen and learned something new every time.
