"The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus." (Romans 6:23)

"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may life, and have it to the full." (John 10:10)

I led a Bible study on Sunday evenings for nearly ten years (February 1993 thru September 2002). We covered, in great detail, more than half of the books of the Bible (Genesis thru Esther except the life of David, Ecclesiastes, Isaiah, Daniel 1-6, Hosea, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Habakkuk, Haggai, Zechariah 1-8, Malachi; Acts, I Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, I Thessalonians thru Hebrews, I John thru Revelation). My notes on any of these books are available upon request. Email me at DSchansb [at] ius [dot] edu

C.S. Lewis quote-of-the-week: AGood and evil both increase at compound interest. That is why the little decisions you and I make every day are of such infinite importance. The smallest good act today is the capture of a strategic point from which, a few months later, you may be able to go on to victories you never dreamed of. An apparently trivial indulgence in lust or anger today is the loss of a ridge or railway line or bridgehead from which the enemy may launch an attack otherwise impossible.@ (Mere Christianity, book 3, ch. 9)

Verse(s)-of-the-Week: Ephesians 4:17-19--

17So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. 18They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. 19Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, with a continual lust for more.
