Welcome to the Bible Study. I'm Stephen Lawson, president of One Passion Ministries.

And each week I will teach verse by verse through the passage of scripture so that you can better understand the word of God

and put it into practice in your life. Join me now as we look together into this

section of the Bible. So we'll be here in excuse me in two weeks. I mentioned last time I'm going to hold it up one more time about the expositors academy and the response that came in from around the world

was was really amazing and so for anyone else who's watching in the United States

or around the world my ministry one passion that sponsors

this Bible study I'm starting an online preaching school in which I've been videoed giving 27 lessons messages on what is biblical preaching, how to put together a biblical sermon, and the history of preaching,

going through the entire Bible and surveying all the preachers in the Bible and what preaching really is.

So it involves reading assignments, it involves written assignments, and you also submit a video of you preaching and will

critique your preaching as well and give you helpful feedback. So you just go on our website one passion.org one passion

and I just want to flood the planet with Bible preachers.

And I would like to have this translated in different languages.

And so even as I go down to Brazil, I'm already in discussion with them having it translated into Portuguese talking with some people

about having it translated into Italian and I really want to cover the major languages as well. So I just want to make everyone aware of this that's

watching and this is a certificate actually that we that we give to everyone who

passes our curriculum.

And this is not just to crank out a certificate.

You actually have to work for it and to earn it.

And I really want it to mean something that you would have one of these.

So that's just what I needed to say by way of introduction and we'd love to hear from you.

You can email us at one passion.org and we would

love to hear any interest that you would have in this preaching school.
