Welcome back to the Hosea online Bible study! We’re excited you’ve joined us again this week as we continue to study this amazing story of God’s unfailing love. This week, we heard a lot about Israel’s idolatry, and we were challenged to identify our own idols–hard, convicting stuff! We know this week was challenging, but we’re so glad you’re sticking with us and pressing in. We can’t wait to hear what you all are learning!
If you have any questions about how this study works, we’ve answered most of them here. Have more questions not answered there? Check out our Online Bible Study FAQs.
As a reminder, we’ll leave all the videos up until May 31, 2018, allowing some breathing room for those who join in late or miss a couple of weeks. After that you can purchase the video or audio sessions here.
Did you miss our first few sessions? Don’t worry!
Now that we’re all on the same page, let’s jump in to Session 6! Turn to the viewer guide on page 130 of your Bible study book to follow along with the Session 6 video and fill in the blanks. Don’t have your book yet? Here’s a viewer guide you can use while you wait. Miss an answer? Find it here.
- Why do you suppose the idolatry of self is so pervasive and destructive? (page 113)
- In what ways do we run to God as our crisis manager but trust the idol of self for the everyday provisions of our lives? (page 116)
- How do you think your life would be different if every moment, every thought, and every action was coated with the presence and power of the Holy Spirit? (page 126)
- Is there one thought or sentence that stuck out to you in this week’s video? What stood out and why?
