How Well Do You Know Your Apostles?
The Bible Apostles Series
Dear Friends,
Last week, I concluded the six-part series Grace In Action. If you missed any part of it, or would like to read the full collection, you can find it on my Substack under Series: Grace In Action.
I’ll now be starting a new series on the Bible’s apostles. This is not intended to be an exposé, but rather a fun and lighthearted series meant to encourage thought and discussion about how much we really know of the apostles.
I’ll be focusing on these apostles: Peter, John, Paul, Barnabas, James, and Jude — mostly the men who wrote the pastoral letters included in the biblical canon.
Along the way, I’ll be asking questions such as:
Who is your favorite apostle, and why?
Which apostle do you think you’d be least likely to get along with, and why?
In the dispute between Barnabas and Paul, who do you think was right, and why?
In the dispute between Peter and Paul, who do you think was right, and why?
I may add more questions as the series progresses.
I do not intend this to be a teaching but an interactive and collaborative effort where we can learn together. I don’t believe I know enough, nor do I think Scripture gives us enough information for an expose. Still, if the Holy Spirit directs, I may eventually do a deeper study on one or two of the apostles.
I hope you’ll join me in this adventure and share your thoughts and answers through comments on my Substack or Facebook page — however you normally interact with my posts.
I hope you find the series both enlivening and enlightening.
Stay tuned.
