Happy Week 6, OBSers! Can you believe we are almost done with
our study? This is the last of the women of our study.
Okay, here is the last of our Weekly Lowdown’s. Print this, post
it to your fridge or tuck it in your study book.
This is your SUGGESTED guide for the week to help you keep up in
the Bible study!
Here’s what’s happening in our study this week…
What We’re Reading This Week... Mary Magdalene (pp. 97-106, in the
guide.)
This week’s memory verse: Galatians 6:9
(NIV) – “Let us
not become weary in doing good, for
at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”
Mary Magdalene: Transforming for
Outcast to Follower
Her Character: Though mistakenly
characterized as a prostitute in many popular writings, the Bible says only
that Mary was possessed by seven demons. She probably suffered a serious mental
or physical illness from which Jesus delivered her. She is a beautiful example
of a woman whose life was poured out in response to God’s extravagant grace.
Key Scriptures: Luke 8:1-2; John 19:25
and 20:1-18
Observe — Our culture seems to have
ways of declaring people either “in” or “out.” What places a person in the
inner circle and what makes a person an outcast?
Observe — God created humans to
be in His image, to be reflections of Him on earth, mean and women to reflect
God’s glory. Jesus takes the broken shards of our lives and mends them back
together so we can reflect Jesus. – Jonalyn
Fincher
Stretch — Fill in the blank:
