The slant of this study is from my point of view and does not reflect any
particular branch of Christianity. My background is Christian Lutheran (ELCA)
and have had the blessing of being theologically trained (late 1970s & 80s).
I worship and pray the Daily Office (Episcopal). I am a church worker in a
Catholic community in Oregon where I teach people about discipleship and giving.

What is God calling you to do? How does this piece of Scripture build my
relationship closer to God in order for me to do my calling from the Lord better?
These are the primary questions that I am approaching the study.

Prayer:
Blessed Lord, who caused all holy Scriptures to be written for our learning:
Grant us so to hear them, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them,
that we may embrace and ever hold fast the blessed hope of everlasting life,
which you have given us in our Savior Jesus Christ;
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.
Amen.
