Presentation transcript:

Study – is this what we think of?

We become like what we study – like father like son… What are you spending your time/energy focussing on?

"Sheep get like shepherds, and shepherds get like sheep. [ "Sheep get like shepherds, and shepherds get like sheep. [...] But it is quicker and closer, with trees and Ents."

Truth sets us free – so don’t be in bondage!

How do we change? Fixing our eyes on other things…

What is study?

More than reading

More than books

How study?

Focus on things – repetition. Keep doing it! Kids books, songs

Concentrate – not background – experience of ‘what have I just read?’ How often do we get space/time when there’s no other distractions? Radio/TV on all the time?

Comprehension – understand what you read (penny drop moment)

Reflection – find the significance of what you read

Need for humility – not showing off – that only shows we have learned facts, not wisdom

Books

Not just reading…

What’s being said?

What’s meant?

Is it right or wrong?

Experience

Other books

Live discussion – housegroups…

Non verbal books

Nature

Events

People & relationships Why do we do what we do? (why do we have to justify ourselves so much – can our actions speak for us?)

Finding wonder in all things

Finding time to do this study? So what about Mary & Martha “One thing is needed” … to sit in submission at the feet of Christ and study – learn from/of him Is Mary serving – what do you think a preacher wants? People to listen to them! We make time to do what we think is important … do we want to be transformed by the renewing of our minds? Danger of spending all our time on urgent things – and missing the important. Were we really made to spend all our time at work? Or to please ourselves? Not cares of the church – but of the Lord.
