SUMMARY:Hebrews: The Whole Way
DESCRIPTION:Led by Dr. John N. Oswalt\, an American scholar and distinguished professor of Old Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. \nTo many early Christians\, and not a few today\, it looked as though God’s plan of salvation in the Old Testament had failed and that he had gone to Plan B with Jesus. That meant that you either had to choose the Jewish way or the Christian way. The author of Hebrews (Priscilla\, Aquila\, Paul?) says\, “Not at all!\,” and shows how the two parts of the Bible fit together\, hand and love. Keep the faith! \n \nSchedule\nThe handouts for each session will be provided via links in the schedule\, to be updated week by week. \n\n\n\nFebruary 16\nIntroduction and Heb 1\n\n\nFebruary 23\nHeb 2:1–3:6\n\n\nMarch 9*\nHeb 3:7–4:13\n\n\nMarch 16\nHeb 4:14–5:10\n\n\nMarch 23\nHeb 5:11–6:20\n\n\nApril 6\nHebrews 7\n\n\nApril 13\nHeb 8:1–9:10\n\n\nApril 20\nHeb 9:11–10:18\n\n\nApril 27\nHeb 10:19–11:40\n\n\nApril 29\, 2:00 p.m.**\nHebrews 12\n\n\nMay 4\nHebrews 13\n\n\n\n*We will not meet on March 2.\n**Because we were unable to meet on March 30 and Dr. Oswalt is not able to extend the schedule beyond May 4\, we have adjusted the schedule to add a second session in the week of April 27. So\, Session 10 will be presented on Wednesday\, April 29\, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Everyone is welcome to attend in person or online\, as usual\, just at a different day/time than usual. If this time is inconvenient for you\, the recording will be made available to stream\, free for event registrants\, for a limited time. \nSession Videos\nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nWe will record each of the sessions and make each week’s video available until the following week for online streaming via links in emails sent only to registrants.

SUMMARY:Numbers: There and Back Again
DESCRIPTION:Led by Dr. John N. Oswalt\, an American scholar and distinguished professor of Old Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. \nSUMMARY: In the Book of Numbers we travel with the people of Israel from Sinai to the Plains of Moab across from Jericho. Along the way we learn what life in the Spirit could be and what it too often is and how to prevent that deficiency. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip: \n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Leviticus: The Way of Holiness
DESCRIPTION:Led by Dr. John N. Oswalt\, an American scholar and distinguished professor of Old Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. \nSUMMARY: The Book of Leviticus is often among the least favorite Bible books to study. However\, when it is put into its context in the covenant documents extending from Exodus 24 to Numbers 10\, it has a great deal to say to us about God’s purpose for our lives and the way he intends us to live. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Malachi: Signs of a Slipping Heart
DESCRIPTION:By exploring the message of the Old Testament’s last prophet before the arrival of Jesus 400 years later\, we gleaned important insights into how God’s people can have our hearts renewed by the Holy Spirit in preparation for Jesus’ next appearing. The truth in all of our lives is that our hearts can so easily grow lukewarm and even cold during long seasons of uncertainty and waiting upon God. These are the times when we should be diligent in keeping the fire in our hearts burning. This study will help us do just that. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n\nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Hosea: God's Unchanging Love
DESCRIPTION:This Bible study was led by Dr. John N. Oswalt\, an American scholar and distinguished professor of Old Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. \nSUMMARY: The northern kingdom of Israel was facing destruction. Under the inexorable pressure of the empire of Assyria\, one king after another was being bloodily replaced. The sins of the nation seemed to be multiplying. Defeat and exile were looming. What would God say to a people like that? He cannot ignore their sins and the consequences of those sins\, but he also wants to tell them that while his love will not prevent those consequences neither will it be deterred by them. What that means is that there is hope beyond the destruction. If\, in the midst of judgment\, they will turn back to him\, judgment need not be the end. As we in America look at what may be a grim future\, we too need to be assured that God’s love extends through and beyond whatever judgment our bad choices may bring upon us. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Holiness Collaborative 2023
DESCRIPTION:Holiness Collaborative 2023\nNovember 7—9\, 2023\nThe Language of Holiness\n \nThe Holiness Collaborative was launched to provide a setting for individuals passionate about the transformative work of the Holy Spirit to gather for a time of encouragement\, equipping\, and resourcing. We gather\, carrying in our hearts the contexts and lives we are blessed to minister to\, seeking the Lord’s help to faithfully continue serving and seeing His transformation take root. \nThis year’s Holiness Collaborative will look at “The Language of Holiness”. Through small group discussions\, teaching sessions\, and other collaborative approaches we will look at the power of our words as we share the powerful message of Holiness with those we serve. \nLeadership Team\n  Bill Kierce is the President of The Francis Asbury Society\, husband to Kim\, father to three grown children\, and grandfather to 8 grandkids. He is deeply convinced that we are incapable in our own strength to fulfill God’s call or to live a life that wholly pleases God. He recalls the experience of being filled with the Holy Spirit as “I was met that night with waves of God’s presence overwhelming me with the reality of His love and power. I have claimed that as my initial baptism with the Holy Spirit and entrance into entire sanctification.” \nJosh Hallahan is the Director of Discipleship at The Francis Asbury Society\, husband to Kelly\, and father to Caleb\, Seth\, Elizabeth\, and Rebekah. Josh firmly believes that discipleship ought to be at the heartbeat of all Christ followers\, and he counts it an absolute joy to walk alongside the men and women Jesus has entrusted him with.

SUMMARY:DFK Symposium: Prevenient Grace
DESCRIPTION:Colin Williams concluded that Wesley’s emphasis on preliminary grace enabled him to break “the chain of logical necessity” that seemed to be the inevitable consequence of original sin. But does Scripture teach this concept? A leading evangelical theologian dismissed it\, saying\, “The problem is that there is no clear and adequate basis in Scripture for this concept of a universal enablement. The theory\, appealing though it is in many ways\, simply is not taught explicitly in the Bible.” \nHowever\, Dr. Brian Shelton\, chair of the Christian Studies and Philosophy Department at Asbury University\, has written a solid introduction to the doctrine of prevenient grace from a biblical\, historical\, and theological perspective. He makes a case for original sin\, conditional election\, prevenient grace\, and the universal opportunity for all to believe. \nIn this symposium Dr. Shelton will deliver the keynote address. After lunch there will be a panel discussion on the topic: \n\nDr. Chris Bounds will represent the thought of Arminius.\nDr. Suzanne Nicholson will represent the implications to systematic and practical theology.\nRev. Bill Kierce\n\n\nREGISTRATION IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE\n  \nSpeakers\nDr. Brian Shelton has worked in higher education for twenty years at four Christian colleges\, serving as professor and as academic dean. He holds a Ph.D. in historical theology centered on early Christianity. His areas of interest include the early church in Rome\, patristic exegesis\, martyrdom\, and Italian religious history. He has led several study tours in Europe\, finding on-site experiences to be one of the best ways for students to grasp the significance of history. These have included Luther in Germany\, Bonhoeffer in Berlin\, the Renaissance in Florence\, the early church in Rome\, and the Holocaust in Poland. Brian spent ten years in biology research\, recently leading a medical and sustainable development mission experience to Honduras. He is a CCCU Leadership Development Institute Fellow\, a Georgia Governor’s Teaching Fellow\, and a senior fellow with the John and Charles Wesley Center for Christian Thought. He serves on the board of the Manchester Wesley Research Centre. For more information about Dr. Shelton\, see his full bio on the Asbury University website here. \nSchedule\n\n\n\n   10:30–10:45 a.m.\nArrival\n\n\n   10:45 a.m.\n“Prevenient Grace”\n(Dr. Brian Shelton)\n\n\n   11:25 a.m.\nQ&A\n\n\n   11:45 a.m.\nBreak\n\n\n   12:00 p.m.\nLunch\n\n\n   1:00 p.m.\nPanel Discussion\n\n\n   2:30 p.m.\nClosing Thoughts\n\n\n   3:00 p.m.\nDismissal\n\n\n\n\nFeatured Book\nPrevenient Grace: God’s Provision for Fallen Humanity (by W. Brian Shelton)\n$24.95\nGod enables all people to exercise saving faith in Christ by mitigating the effects of depravity\, an initiative that theologians call prevenient grace or ‘enabling grace.’ Dr. Shelton clearly identifies the proper place of this concept in the theological landscape and calls for a new dialogue about its role in individual salvation. Prevenient grace has been a bone of contention between Wesleyan and Calvinist Christians for nearly five hundred years. However\, Dr. Shelton traces the biblical and historical roots of this concept and concludes that it is vital to understanding how God reaches sinful human beings. He explains\, ‘This book endeavors to show that prevenient grace is implicit if not explicit in Scripture; that it is not contrary to any other biblical teaching about salvation; and that it offers the best coherence of the biblical data on saving faith.’ ‘Prevenient grace is just one part of the great drama of salvation. Some of the most brilliant theologians have been perplexed by it\, so they have denied and even denounced the doctrine. However\, prevenient grace effectively confronts the problem of inherited depravity and yet gives due regard to God’s role in the salvation of fallen human beings. The effect is captured by one contemporary theologian who said\, ‘Man is set free to depend on God.”

SUMMARY:7 Deadly Sins vs 7 Cardinal Virtues
DESCRIPTION:This Bible study was led by several different speakers and produced by the Francis Asbury Society in 2023. \nSUMMARY: In contrasting each of the seven deadly sins with their opposite virtues\, we can gain insight and mature in holiness (see Colossians 3:5–17). Cultivating the cardinal virtues is not the solution for sin—only the atoning work of Christ does that—but it can lead to a healthy\, holy life. In these 16 sessions\, we’ll study each deadly sin in contrast to its opposite virtue so that we can grow in grace and be better equipped to present ourselves holy and pleasing to God\, which is our spiritual act of worship (Romans 12:1). \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:\n \nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJohn Oswalt\nJosh & Kelly Hallahan\nVic Reasoner\nDaryl Diddle\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDwight Winter\nBrian Shelton\nJonathan Powers\nHule Goddard\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nD Merricks\nSam Kim\nRick Durrance\nKevin Brown\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCricket Albertson\nMaria Kenney

DESCRIPTION:This study was led by Dr. John N. Oswalt\, an American scholar and distinguished professor of Old Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. \nSUMMARY: It was an event that forever changed the course of human history.

SUMMARY:Titus Women Bible Study - Stories of Faith
DESCRIPTION:For this fall we will look at testimony messages spoken in the Old Testament. These testimonies continually pointed people to God\, telling of his love and faithfulness\, praising his character and his provision\, and reminding them of God’s sovereign authority over all of creation. We will look at who is speaking\, who they are speaking to\, and the response of those that were listening. As we reflect on what is being shared\, we can learn better how to share our own stories of faith. We serve a compassionate\, faithful\, and loving God that reveals himself throughout the pages of Scripture. God wants us to share about his character. He wants us to tell others how he has been faithful. He wants us to always remember who he is and what he has done. When these heroes of the faith speak\, we can observe\, listen\, learn\, and imitate what they have said and done and leave a legacy of our own—a legacy of declaring our allegiance to follow Jesus 100% and to tell everyone we know about him. \nLet’s have the passion and excitement of the woman at the well after her encounter with Jesus. “So the woman left her water jar and went away into town and said to the people\, “Come\, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?” (John 4:28–29). \n\n\n\nSeptember 13\nOverview of the semester\nTestimony Turkey and Iraq trip\nPotluck breakfast\n\n\nSeptember 20\nThe Song of Moses (Exodus 15 & Deuteronomy 32)\n\n\nSeptember 27\nThe Scouting Report (Numbers 13 & 14)\n\n\nOctober 4\nJoshua’s Final Speech (Joshua 23 & 24)\n\n\nOctober 11\nAsaph’s Lessons from History (Psalm 78)\n\n\nOctober 18\nDavid’s Song of Praise (Psalm 105)\n\n\nOctober 25\nMan’s Sins and Song of Repentance (Psalm 106)\n\n\nNovember 1\nThe Prayer of the Levites (Nehemiah 9)\n\n\nNovember 8\nThe Lord’s Challenge (Job 38-41)\n\n\nNovember 15\nCelebration/praise/testimony time\nPotluck breakfast

SUMMARY:Ephesians: My Heart\, Christ's Home
DESCRIPTION:Led by Dr. John N. Oswalt\, an American scholar and distinguished professor of Old Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. \nWhat does it mean to live one’s daily life “seated in the heavenlies with Christ”?\nSUMMARY: Ephesians was written while Paul was in prison in Rome. It expresses Paul’s mature thought on such things as the identity of Jesus and\, in particular\, the nature of the Christian life. Paul talks about what it means to live one’s daily life “seated in the heavenlies with Christ.” He explains what it means for Christ to live in our hearts by faith\, being the temple of God\, and manifesting Christ’s love. He shows how all these things are possible because of the reality of the Spirit living in us. In this study\, you will be challenged to rise above Christian mediocrity and to plunge beneath a superficial\, world-absorbed faith. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Fall 2018–Spring 2020: East of Eden: Finding Our Way Home
DESCRIPTION:Led by Stan Key\, president of the Francis Asbury Society from 2014 to 2020. \nWho am I?\nIs there a God?\nIf there is a God\, what is he (she? it? they?) like?\nHow did the universe begin?\nWhat’s the meaning of life?\nWhy is there so much suffering?\nWhat does the future hold? \nThe book of Genesis was written precisely for people who ask big questions. By pointing to our origins\, this amazing book explains our present and helps us anticipate our future. It tells the ancient stories of creation\, the Garden of Eden\, Cain and Abel\, Noah and the flood\, the tower of Babel\, the call of Abraham\, Jacob wrestling the angel\, the rise of Joseph as prince over Egypt\, and many more. However\, the book of Genesis does more than offer interesting history; it enables us to understand why the world is the way it is and\, at the same time\, offers a solution to many of the world’s problems. Study this God-inspired text and find divine help in answering the greatest mysteries of life. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session—as well as a book based on this study—can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Fall 2017–Spring 2018: Got Life? A Study of the Gospel of John
DESCRIPTION:Led by Stan Key\, president of the Francis Asbury Society from 2014 to 2020. \nSUMMARY: John’s Gospel is written so that those who read it may come to believe that Jesus is the Messiah. The first 12 chapters relate a series of miracles (called “signs”) that make such faith possible. Jesus turns water to wine\, heals the sick\, feeds the hungry\, and raises the dead so that honest seekers have enough evidence to make it intellectually plausible to believe. But there’s more! John wants to lead us to faith in Christ so that we might have life: abundant life\, victorious life\, eternal life. If you want more out of life than mere biological existence\, John’s Gospel promises that you can experience abundant living by putting your faith in Jesus Christ. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:\n \n  \nBonus study: John 3:16\, A Study by Mike Powers — student | answers\nSpecial Christmas Session: Cosmic Christmas (Dec 11\, 2018) – student | answers

SUMMARY:Spring 2017: Geography of Salvation
DESCRIPTION:This Bible study was led by Stan Key\, president of the Francis Asbury Society (2014-2020)\, and was produced in 2017. \n SUMMARY: When Jesus called his disciples\, he said simply\, “Follow me.” He was inviting them on a journey. He himself would show the way. In fact\, he was the way (John 14:6)! The classic biblical description of this journey with God is the story of how Israel left Egypt\, guided by the pillar of fire as it led them to the Land of Promise. This two-volume study follows the route the Hebrews took on their journey as they passed through the Red Sea\, spent time at Marah (the bitter place)\, camped at Mount Sinai\, turned back in fear at Kadesh Barnea\, wandered in circles in the desert for forty years\, crossed the Jordan River\, and fought the battle of Jericho. The geography of salvation helps us to understand not only their journey\, but ours! Don’t waste your life doing laps in the wilderness. Cross over into the blessings of the inheritance that God has prepared for you! “He brought us out… that he might bring us in…” (Deuteronomy 6:23) \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session—as well as Stan’s book\, Journey to Spiritual Wholeness\, based on this study—can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Fall 2016: Marriage Matters
DESCRIPTION:This Bible study was led by Stan Key\, president of the Francis Asbury Society (2014-2020)\, and was produced in 2016. \nSUMMARY: While many have urged us to think about marriage psychologically\, sociologically\, economically\, biologically\, anthropologically\, and historically\, few have offered to help us think about it in the most important manner of all: theologically (biblically). To try to understand marriage without referencing God makes as much sense as studying aviation without making mention of the Wright brothers! Therefore\, in this study\, Stan Key examines the biblical roots of civilization’s most significant institution. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Fall 2015: David—King of Hearts
DESCRIPTION:This Bible study was led by Stan Key\, president of the Francis Asbury Society (2014-2020). \nSUMMARY: Man looks on the outward appearance\, but the Lord looks on the heart. (I Sam. 16:7) This Bible study examines the life of David\, the greatest king in history! David’s reign set the standard for all who would follow. Equally gifted with harp and sling\, he could praise God one moment and kill his enemies the next. One day sacrificially serving his people and the next committing adultery with his neighbor’s wife. Loved and adored one moment\, he could be hated and vilified the next. King David led his nation to noble heights and to ignoble lows. What a mass of contradictions! How to account for such paradoxical realities in one person? What made him tick? Though we examine David’s outward deeds\, we especially focus on his heart. David’s life helps us to understand that the heart of the matter is the matter of the heart. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Spring 2015: Reason Why
DESCRIPTION:This Bible study was led by Stan Key\, president of the Francis Asbury Society (2014-2020)\, and was produced in 2015. \nSUMMARY: There are a lot of intellectual questions troubling many in our world today. This series seeks to answer a few of them—honestly. Finding honest answers to these questions doesn’t make faith inevitable but it does make faith possible. At an intellectual level\, we hope these lessons will help to resolve some of your deepest questions and doubts about the meaning of life. At a spiritual level\, we pray these lessons will help you to love the Lord your God with all your mind (Matthew 22:37). At a practical ministry level\, we want these lessons to equip you to be a better witness\, ready to give a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you (I Peter 3:15). \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Fall 2014: Jeremiah—Fire in the Belly
DESCRIPTION:This Bible study was led by Stan Key\, president of the Francis Asbury Society (2014-2020)\, and was produced in 2015. \nSUMMARY: The time in which Jeremiah ministered was perhaps the most difficult period that the nation of Judah ever experienced.  Things were falling apart\, and it appeared that God had abandoned his people to their enemies. But worse than the Babylonians on the outside was the corrupting influence of sin on the inside. Recognizing the frightful similarities between Jeremiah’s day and our own\, this study will enable the Bible student to put their hope in God when all appears to be lost. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:\n \n  \nStan’s book\, Jeremiah: Fire in His Bones\, available on Amazon here\, is based on this Bible study.

SUMMARY:Spring 2014: Revelation—The Last Word
DESCRIPTION:This Bible study was led by Stan Key\, president of the Francis Asbury Society (2014-2020). \nThe last book of the Bible is unlike any other book in the Bible. Filled with images of dragons\, ten-headed monsters\, angel armies\, mysterious numbers\, and plagues of cosmic proportions\, it requires a sanctified imagination to understand it properly! Though many assume the book is a kind of crystal ball to help chart out the sequence of end time events\, this study takes a different approach. John writes as a pastor. His desire is to help the believers in the churches of Asia both survive and thrive as they live in the evil empire of first century Rome. This book is perhaps the greatest work on pastoral theology ever written! Though John’s words certainly point to the final future victory of the Lamb\, they are profitable today for all believers everywhere. Revelation invites us not only to decipher a code but also to trust in the Lamb! “Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy\, and blessed are those who hear\, and who keep what is written in it\, for the time is near.” Revelation 1:3 \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:\n \n  \nStan’s book\, The Last Word\, available on Amazon here\, is based on this Bible study.

SUMMARY:Fall Bible Study: The Good Kings of Judah
DESCRIPTION:This Bible study was led by Stan Key\, president of the Francis Asbury Society (2014-2020). \nSUMMARY: Our focus for this study was the book of 2 Chronicles and centered on the eight good kings of Judah (Asa\, Jehoshaphat\, Joash\, etc.). Each week we examined the strengths and especially the weaknesses of these good men. Our study zeroed in on the character flaws\, highlighted by Scripture\, that ultimately brought about the moral failure of these otherwise godly personalities. The study will enrich your understanding of leadership\, temptation\, and godliness and will endeavor to encourage the participants to finish strong. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:

SUMMARY:Fall 2012–Spring 2013: Isaiah
DESCRIPTION:Led by Dr. John N. Oswalt\, an American scholar and distinguished professor of Old Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. \nSUMMARY: In a time of spiritual and political turmoil\, the Prophet Isaiah spoke Yahweh’s message to his people in Judah. Surrounded by pagan enemies and facing unfaithfulness in their own nation\, what could the faithful of Judah expect from God? Would he remain true to them while also judging the unrighteousness of his “treasured nation”? Could these people really become God’s servants to share his message with the world? Many of the answers in Isaiah ring startlingly true in our culture today. Old Testament scholar John N. Oswalt illuminates God’s warning to his people and his plan for their ultimate redemption. \nFor a brief introduction of this series\, watch the following clip:\n \nThe workbook for this study can be downloaded (free) and recordings of each session can be purchased directly from our Bookstore:
