It is the most basic of all questions.

As humans, we want to know why things happen.

Why, God? (When We Ask God Why)

God doesn't need us to do anything.

However, He invites us to do a great deal!

Specifically He gives us jobs of great importance.

How then should we respond?

That will be the focus of today's study in Matthew 10.

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) What is the harvest field, and who are the laborers?

B) Why did Christ tell His apostles not to rely on their provisions?

C) What jobs and responsibilities do you and I have this year?

Speaker: Dr. Toby B. Holt

Directions For Disciples

Elisha was bald. Very bald.

In 2 Kings 2, the youth noticed - and mocked him for it.

How did Elisha respond?

Well, not in a way that you might expect.

He cursed the youth - and two bears came out to maul them.

So, what's the deal with that? For some, it seems like an overreaction.

Other Questions That We'll Answer:

A) What was so sinful about the youth's actions?

B) Why was Elisha justified in his response?

C) What do these events tell us about God?

Elisha And The Bears (What Really Happened)

In Psalm 8, David marveled at the stars.

And as he did so, he considered God's power.

'What is man,' David asked, that God should care for him?

In other words, why would a God so big care for people so small?

And yet, He does.

In today's text, we'll consider the towering yet tender nature of our God.

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) What is so striking about Psalm 8?

B) Why does David focus on the 'name' of God?

C) What proof do you have that God loves you?

Speaker: Rev. Dr. Toby Holt
