Continuing the search for the “why” behind his troubles, Job examines his personal actions for possible cause in Chapter 31. This week’s ETB lesson from LifeWay is entitled “Analyze Your Actions” is based on Job 29:1-31:40. The lesson encourages us to live according to godly ethics, which Job certainly did. This can be a good lesson. The key is to get people to think broad and deep to examine their behavior, their relationship to others, and to God. If dealt with on the surface, I suspect many will adopt an “I’m OK” position, and they will miss the opportunity provided by the lesson.My suggestion is to open the class by reading 1 Corinthians 11:28 and observing the Lord’s supper (communion). By participating in the solemn act of remembering the Lord, class members will be in a frame of mind to understand Job’s words in Chapter 31.
Do you have another idea for opening this lesson?
