This quarter introduces the ministry of the Old Testament prophets. God employs people who live among Israel and Judah to be spokespersons for God. A formal representative of God, the prophet has a message meant to effect social change that conforms to God's desired standards as prescribed under the Law.
March, Unit I, "Faithful Prophets." April, Unit II, "Prophets of Restoration."

May, Unit III, "Courageous Prophets of Change," has five sessions, which show the boldness of God's prophets in 1 Kings,Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Jonah. Israel and Judah were released from captivity and charged to rebuild Jerusalem. God sent prophets to call the people to restore their covenant relationship with God. When the people strayed away from their covenant with God, the prophets called them back.

WEDNESDAY BIBLE STUDY - 4PM OR 8PM
ACCOUNTS OF JESUS' RESURRECTION APPEARANCES
During Lent we did a comparative study of the Gospel texts of Jesus’ Passion Narratives. This proved to be eye opening as most of us carry a well- blended composite of all four gospels in our imaginations. By separating each of the four voices, we found interesting emphases that brought the story alive in new ways. We will continue in this fashion for another six weeks.

April 7 Mark Chapter 16, including both the Shorter Ending and the Longer Ending of Mark. We deal with the sharp difficulty of the initial disruption caused by the resurrection (terror and amazement) and two ways that response was reflected upon and remolded by the early church.
April 14 Matthew Chapter 28 Fear is replaced by purpose in the Gospel of Matthew as the disciples receive the Great Commission and we get an insight into the treatment of the resurrection stories by those outside the early Christian community.
April 21 Luke Chapter 24 Luke adds a unique story of two disciples leaving Jerusalem for Emmaus, being accompanied by the risen Lord and taught by him. Upon returning to the other disciples, all see Jesus and receive another version of a commission for ministry.
April 28 John Chapter 20 John, as Luke, has special material to add. The scene at the empty tomb is given in more detail, as is the context (faith and doubt) of the disciples. This is the gospel that introduces us to Thomas. Notice how the chapter ends with a “full stop:” But these are written so that you may come to believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and through believing you may have life in his name. 20:31
May 5 John Chapter 21 This account extends the appearances back to the region of Galilee. Again there is more detail about the post-resurrection circumstances of the disciples. The Gospel concludes with an open-endedness that reminds us there is always more that can be said about Jesus and many more books could be written about him (v. 25)...and this is certainly true, for each Christian must answer the question: who is Jesus?
May 12 Acts 1:1-11, The Ascension of Jesus and the three accounts of the encounter with Paul, the one untimely born Acts 9: 1-22; 22:6-21; 26:12-18 The same author who wrote Luke also wrote the history of the early church. The Acts of the Apostles opens with Jesus’ final encounter with the disciples by describing his ascension. But later in Acts, Paul is encountered by Jesus and three times he describes this experience. None of the New Testament writers refer to their spiritual experiences with Jesus as concretely as does Paul.
