Carefully Think

“¢ If you have the time, read through Genesis 1-11 and make a list of the most significant events in these chapters.
“¢ Who are most significant people in these chapters?
“¢ What do you learn about man and his relationship to God from these chapters?
“¢ For a more significant reading, read through Genesis 1-11 and underline every phrase that indicates God”™s activity. What do you learn about God?

Prayerfully Meditate

“¢ From reading through Genesis 1-11, what issues of life are brought up in these chapters and where do you see them (i.e., marriage, worship, interpersonal relationships, sin, parenting, pride, humility, dependence on God, etc.)?
“¢ Which of these issues is most relevant to your life right now? Why? What does the book of Genesis suggest is most biblical way to deal with it? How?

Intentionally Act

“¢ Make a list of any appropriate responses you think would help you apply your answer given in the last statement above. When and how can you carry these out, by God”™s grace, and in absolute dependence upon him?
“¢ Make a list of issues or subject raised in Genesis 1-11 that you would like to give greater study or attention to. Which one should you begin addressing? When could you begin studying it further (this week?)?
“¢ Pray for our church as a whole that we will all respond to God”™s word corporately.
“¢ Pray for those who will be leading us through the service Sunday. Pray that our hearts will honor God and that our actions will be helpful in edifying the entire body.
