First Lesson- When & Where

Hey GUYS!

First lesson will be this Thursday at 5:00 P.M (changed! make sure you note that it is not at 5:30 anymore.). Just like in December, the meeting place will be at the Student Building. GUYS ONLY!

What to bring:

• Your Bible
• Some paper for notes
• Pen(s) or pencil(s)
• A folder to keep notes and handouts in

You also may want to have some money in case we decide to go out to eat somewhere afterwards. It seems to be tradition that we go somewhere and grab a bite to eat while we discuss a wide variety of things.

Also, if you want to kiss up to the teacher, don't bring an apple...bring a dry erase marker. (Sorry Derek, just had to throw that out there!)

One last thing...if your concerned about missing the lesson, don't be. Podcasting will be up and running for Thursday's lesson. Please note that it may be a few days before the audio file is uploaded. Pictures/Diagrams or video that Derek brings in will be available via this blog. We will also be posting pictures of the handouts that are given out. For those of you who would like digital copies (in other words, the Word Documents), we can send those to you via email. Just send an email to hungrybiblestudy@live.com to get added to the list of those who will receive digital copies of the handouts.

Oh, wondering why we call it Hungry? Well already some people think its to retaliate against the girls...well its not. To prove that, we back it up with the Bible. 2 verses...

Psalm 119:103 "How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!"

Ezekiel 3:3 "Then he said to me, "Son of man, eat this scroll I am giving you and fill your stomach with it." So I ate it, and it tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth. "

While we are not going to physically eat the Bible (even though guys will eat anything), we do want to have a hunger for God's Word. We should think that God's Word is the most delicious thing we have tasted in our spiritual lives. Because of how sweet His Word is, we want more. We want to have an addicition, a sweet tooth, for God's Word. We want to hunger for it because we know that the Word that God has given us is what will "fill [our] stomach[s]" spiritually. The Bible shows that God is the only true fulfillment that we can have. We want to have a spiritual hunger for God. We won't come close to being full without Him. We want to hunger for God. He is the only thing that matters.
