ABOUT THE CLASS:
Inviting the Holy Spirit into Our Hermeneutics
Jesus promised his followers that it is better for him to leave; that it is to our benefit to have the Counselor come. The Counselor that will convict and remind us of everything necessary to follow God. We affirm that the Holy Spirit is the breath of Scripture and has been promised and indwelled within each believer, but do we trust and rely on that same Spirit to guide our interpretation. Is the Spirit relevant to our understanding and reading of scripture or has it done its work in giving us the Bible? Does the Holy Spirit have ongoing work in helping us to discover meaning, purpose and application of Scripture? This class will create a posture of Spirit-inspired openness that helps Bible readers, preachers, teachers and communities surrender our understanding to the Spirit that reveals and “searches everything, even the depths of God."
