Teaching Church Members at Dayton Avenue Baptist Church in Xenia, Oh How to Understand the Bible Better Through a Framework of Biblical Theology
Abstract
The purpose of this project was to teach church members at Dayton Avenue Baptist Church in Xenia, OH how to understand the Bible better through a framework of biblical theology so they might rightly handle the Scriptures to become mature and equipped in the faith and in the application of God’s Word. Chapter 1 describes the ministry context of Dayton Avenue Baptist Church, the rationale, and the goals of the project. Chapter 2 presents the exegesis of three passages of Scripture (2 Peter 3:14-18; 2 Timothy 2:14-17; and 2 Timothy 3:14-17) giving the biblical and theological basis for understanding the Bible better. Chapter 3 argues the theoretical and practical issues for understanding the Bible better. Chapter 4 describes the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the project, and chapter 5 evaluates the success of the project against the goals outlined in chapter 1.
