Pearls Bible Study Groups
begin September 2008

The Book of James
James
The book of James addresses practical issues that are as current as this morning’s newspaper. The faith that Christians claim must be demonstrated in every situation and circumstance of life – at work, at home, in the neighborhood, and in church. Trials and hardships are not obstacles to faith, but opportunities for spiritual growth. Knowing God’s Word is not enough. That knowledge must be applied to our everyday life. Study the book of James and discover what it means to live for Christ in the real world.

The Book of Hosea
Hosea
The book of Hosea is a tragic love story with a happy ending. Hosea was a prophet to the northern kingdom of Israel before its fall in 722 B.C., and his ministry spanned some 40 years. He was a contemporary of Amos, Isaiah, and Micah. Hosea was called by God to find a wife, and so he married a woman named Gomer. After bearing three children to Hosea, Gomer became unfaithful, and the marriage was shattered. Hosea used this experience with Gomer to illustrate God's experience with Israel. The first half of Hosea's book describes his marriage to Gomer, the birth of their children, and her act of unfaithfulness. The second half of the book draws lessons from this true story. Hosea warned of stern judgment for Israel's unfaithfulness, for Israel had turned to other gods just as Gomer had left Hosea for other men. In the end, however, Hosea urged Gomer to repent and receive forgiveness and restoration. Likewise, Israel would receive forgiveness and restoration if the people would return to God.
