WHAT DOES MEMORIAL DAY MEAN TO YOU?
Discussed by William "Bill" Federer
with The American Minute
Picture this scene:
Southern women with their arms full of flowers scatter the petals across the
graves of fallen soldiers from both the North and South. The time:
end of the Civil War. This was how Memorial Day began. Friendship offered from
the South to North, and from the North to the South.
It began as a way to begin the healing process after a bloody war many years
ago. Now, Memorial Day is a day we set aside to remember, not “celebrate”, those
who have given their lives to defend the freedom and liberty of the United
States of America.
(HOUSTON AREA ONLY) JESUS IN THE OLD TESTAMENT
Discussed by Mark Lanier
with Biblical Literacy (www.Biblical-Literacy.com)
Day 9
Renowned attorney and Bible Study Leader at Champion Forest Baptist Church in Houston, Mark Lanier, concludes his series today on "Jesus in the Old Testament"
Mark Lanier says that when we look at ancient Biblical passages, we need to always look at them in historical context to see how God was using not only the language and their surroundings to speak into their lives, but also their knowledge of reality and the world as he spoke into their lives in ways they could understand.
Mark Lanier is a practicing attorney who also holds a B.A. in Biblical Languages from David Lipscomb University. He is both a committed student of Scripture and an excellent communicator of its truths.

(HOUSTON AREA ONLY) ROMANS: THE CHRISTIAN AND THE LAW
Discussed by Pastor David Fleming
with Champion Forest Baptist Church (www.ChampionForest.org)
Day 4
Pastor David Fleming,
Senior Pastor at Champion Forest Baptist Church in Houston, Texas, continues his Romans series today
with a sermon entitled: “The
Christian and the Law”.
Romans 7:1-13
1Or do you not know, brethren (for I am speaking to those who know the law),
that the law has jurisdiction over a person as long as he lives? 2For the
married woman is bound by law to her husband while he is living; but if her
husband dies, she is released from the law concerning the husband. 3So then, if
while her husband is living she is joined to another man, she shall be called an
adulterous; but if her husband dies, she is free from the law, so that she is
not an adulterous though she is joined to another man.
4Therefore, my brethren, you also were made to die to the Law through the body
of Christ, so that you might be joined to another, to Him who was raised from
the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God. 5For while we were in the
flesh, the sinful passions, which were aroused by the Law, were at work in the
members of our body to bear fruit for death. 6But now we have been released
from the Law, having died to that by which we were bound, so that we serve in
newness of the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter.
7What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? May it never be! On the contrary, I
would not have come to know sin except through the Law; for I would not have
known about coveting if the Law had not said, “YOU SHALL NOT COVET.” 8But sin,
taking opportunity through the commandment, produced in me coveting of every
kind; for apart from the Law sin is dead. 9I was once alive apart from the Law;
but when the commandment came, sin became alive and I died; 10and this
commandment, which was to result in life, to result in death for me; 11for sin,
taking an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through it killed
me. 12So then, the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and
good. 13Therefore did that which is good become a cause of death for me? May it never
be! Rather it was sin, in order that it might be shown to be sin by affecting my
death through that which is good, so that through the commandment sin would
become utterly sinful.

(DALLAS AREA ONLY) LESSON 15 ALEXANDRIA AND EARLY BIBLICAL UNDERSTANDING
Discussed by Mark Lanier
with Biblical Literacy (www.Biblical-Literacy.com)
Day 2
Mark Lanier is a renowned attorney in the Houston area, with offices across the
country. But his passion is Church History Literacy and anything about the Bible. He teaches in a way that makes you feel like
you’re actually there personally experiencing the days of Moses, John, Job, Mary, Elizabeth, and, yes, even Jesus. Mark makes the pages of the
Bible come alive when he teaches, and he gives deep insight into stories that you may have heard as a child, but makes them real and new even
if you’ve heard the story 20 times.
Have you ever had someone ask you about a very difficult passage of scripture? Have you ever read a passage and wondered what it means? Or how
it might be true? Perhaps you have wondered why the Old Testament forbids eating pig, when most Christians today will eat pork. Some might
wonder why other certain things are allowed today that were forbidden in Biblical days. If you have ever wondered this, you are not alone.
For centuries, Christians have sought to understand Bible passages. One important part of biblical history derives from Alexandria, Egypt. That
will be Mark’s focus over the next few days.
