Bible Study for the Week of 9.4.06

Here are some Bible Study Materials for the Week of Sept. 4, 2006.

A note of instruction. I have posted the Bible Study for you to use in your small groups. If you are a leader, you'll want to download both. The first one for you to use in the small group you are in, and the second to use in the small group you lead. On Friday (Lord Willing) I will post a 5 day devotional based on the topic for CRU the following Thursday. For instance, next week's CRU is about Evangelism. The Bible Study below is about Evangelism. The talk at CRU will be about Evangelism. The 5 day devotional guide will begin on this Friday (9.1.06) and run through next Thursday. Some of the questions may be identical to Bible Study questions...some may be different. You may be asked to read the same passage for Bible Study, maybe something different. It's just our little way of keeping you on your toes.

I'm proud of you fellas. You all kept your head on a swivel- Anchorman

The Bible Study is "No One Should Not Hear," based on John 4:4-42. (in case you haven't noticed, you can click on the Scripture reference to see the referenced verse via BibleGateway.com)

How to Introduce Others to Christ - Bill Bright
(Bill Bright was the founder of Campus Crusade. He started it as student movement at UCLA in the fifties...and now we have a presence at most major universities and in most countries around the globe. Needless to say, if Bill Bright says something about sharing your faith, you should listen.)

Enjoy!!

Community 2:8

This week at CRU we are starting a series called Community 2:8.

It is based on I Thessalonians 2:8.

"So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you
not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very
dear to us." (I Thess. 2:8 ESV)


We will look at how to express Christ to the University by employing a four fold stategy. The strategy consists of:

1. Prayer
2. Sharing
3. Introduce
4. Invite

This method isn't meant to be something that you can do once, check off your list and say, "OK, I've done my bit for the semester." This is meant to be a lifestyle. For some of us, this will be easy. For others, it will be really difficult (for those keeping track at home, I'm probably in the second group).
We'll be going over this strategy in CRU on Thursday nights and in your Bible Studies during the week. Check back here often, as we are going to start a daily devotion guide that will correspond with your Bible Study and the weekly CRU meeting.

MP3 of the CRU talk from 8.24.06

Here is the audio from the talk at CRU from August 24, 2006.
The text was from II Samuel 9, the speaker was Donny Friederichsen.

The King's Redemption

(note: We're still working out some kinks with the audio recording. There is substantial background humming and hissing in the first half of the talk. The second half of the talk is clearer. If you don't wanna listen because of that, don't worry, you won't hurt my feelings.)

Bible Study for week of Aug 28

Hey guys!

This week we're gonna mainly just hang out and get to know each other a little bit for Bible Studies. But, if you're really hankerin' for some Bible Study use these. This week at CRU we'll talk about Prayer and the role it plays in Expressing Christ to your friends.
