Bible Study

This is the fifth in a series of Bible study briefs designed for law students. We're grateful to the Christian Legal Society for sharing these study briefs with us.

The purpose of this study is to examine what Scripture has to say about human authority.

The purpose of this study is to examine principles of punishment with an eye toward thinking through some fundamental principles of the criminal law. This is, again, good practice as you get into the habit of evaluating the law by biblical principles.

Ever feel like you are all alone, venturing into unchartered territories? As Christian graduate students, faculty, university staff/administrators, and campus ministers, university life is challenging. Lauri Swann offers scripture, prayer, and testimony of God's provision for us in this three-part series from Scholar's Compass, a devotional series from the Emerging Scholars Network:

Unchartered Territories: Hearing God's Voice Unchartered Territories: Obedience Unchartered Territories: Faith

​ May God use Lauri's words to encourage and bolster your faith to hear his voice and obey.

This piece was initially featured in the December 2012 edition of the Lamp Post, the email newsletter of InterVarsity Faculty Ministry. Thomas Trevethan examines our inclination toward and intention in using Scripture. Are we using it to advance our own agendas or are we applying God's living word to our own lives to seek and do the will of God?

A personal liturgy based on Psalm 90, written by Bobby Gross, national director for Graduate and Faculty Ministries. Use this liturgy to help you meditate on Psalm 90 and begin your day with prayer.

This Bible study for faculty was originally presented at the Collegium on Christ, Knowledge and Wisdom at Union University.
