Bible Studies

OT Studies

NT Studies

These studies represent a variety of approaches to the study of the Bible. Out of the almost 20 years of teaching a PhD seminar on New Testament Critical Methodology and one on New Testament history at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth, Texas have come numerous insights especially related to exegetical methodology and historical background to Christian beginnings. Hopefully these can be of usefulness to you as well. Check this page periodically since I'll be continually uploading new materials. A lot of the recent postings are Sunday School lessons taken from teaching Sunday School at the First Baptist Church of Shelby, NC, and also now from the ministry at the International Baptist Church in Cologne, Germany.
