This week we continue the exploration of Isaac and Rebecca's love story in hopes to understand how God introduces us to the right person to fall in love with. How should a person's ministry play a role in whether or not someone is right for them? To what extent does family play a positive and negative role in godly relationships? Should the right partner take you away from the path God has you on or the ministry God has chosen for you? Can we trust God to be part of the process? What are the four facets to a Christian relationship and how do they relate to us today?
How is the institution of work intended as a blessing to humanity? How did work change from before the Fall to afterwards? How can the work we do be a blessing to others and to ourselves? What is the balance between work, faith, family, and leisure time? How should faith inform our work experience? What should be the mindset we have while working?
How did Jesus lead people to follow Him? How can we do the same today? Does God use flawed people to draw people to Jesus? What role does the church play in bridging the gap between humanity and God? How does God speak to people today? How can we discern the voice of God amid all the other voices which compete for our attention? How does the story of Zacchaeus show that God is often seeking out us when we think it’s difficult for us to seek him? Is God still reaching out to people today? Should we be passive or active in reaching people?
The Bible teaches about a day lost in history. A day God designed for us to remember. This week's lesson uncovers the mystery of this forgotten and lost day.
