Olathe, Kansas, United States - RexChat Bible Study News for Friday, 2 May 2014
Hi, RezChat
 I gotta go paint, so I'm hurrying.
   But I had a neat thing happen to me this week. If you don't read my blog and you're curious about what it was, here's the link: How I got a free haircut.

Sunday's session: Flash flood alert
OK folks, this is it.
   Not the end.
   The beginning.
   It's the beginning of the year of lessons that the new curriculum team put together.
   Terry Bahadur leads the charge into a 2-week series about Noah. We decided to do it because we knew Pastor Adam was going to cover the topic. And we figured we could do in 2 weeks what it would take a preacher 3 weeks to do.
   Title of the session: Why Noah?
   Bible passages: Genesis 6:5 Yahweh saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of man’s heart was continually only evil. 6 Yahweh was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart. 7 Yahweh said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the surface of the ground—man, along with animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky—for I am sorry that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found favor in Yahweh’s eyes.
9:20 Noah began to be a farmer, and planted a vineyard. 21 He drank of the wine and got drunk. He was uncovered within his tent. 22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. 23 Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it on both their shoulders, went in backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were backwards, and they didn’t see their father’s nakedness. 24 Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his youngest son had done to him. 25 He said,
“Canaan is cursed.
    He will be a servant of servants to his brothers.”
26 He said,
“Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Shem.
    Let Canaan be his servant.
27 May God enlarge Japheth.
    Let him dwell in the tents of Shem.
    Let Canaan be his servant.”
28 Noah lived three hundred fifty years after the flood.
Mega Mission: Earl's world
I got an email a few minutes ago from Gary Tranbarger, who generally doesn't say much. But he gets his point across:
Steve: We have Earl on our work schedule for Mega Mission tomorrow along with about 30 other houses. 
Gary
Rats, make that 31.
   My daughter and her husband bought their first house, and got the keys this week. The house had kids who enjoyed luminous, radioactive colors. I'm thinking 2 coats of primer before the main color.
   I'll be going there as soon as I finish this. And again tomorrow.
   Feel welcome to join me if you have energy after Earl.
   Gary, give Earl my regards. I'll be praying the barn holds.
