Going Back For Seconds

Get Ready for Reconnect 2!

Our first event, on Tuesday, March 31, brought a hearty attendance and spirited time of exploring scholarly topics from a practical perspective: the Dead Sea Scrolls and Second Temple Judaism.

Our second event, coming on Tuesday, June 23, brings us back to Tabernacle Baptist, Ithaca, with their pastor, Elijah Beltz, sharing on 2 key topics:

THE USE OF THE OLD TESTAMENT IN THE NEW TESTAMENT: We will unpack key questions related to the NT authors quoting the OT: Do the NT authors exegete the OT accurately? Do they use rabbinical exegetical practices? Do they change the meaning of the text? And can we use their same methods when teaching the OT?

MODERN HERMENEUTICAL PROBLEMS: We will explore some of the modern challenges to the historical grammatical means of interpretation—historical criticism, various reader-response theories, and Theological Interpretation of Scripture. How can understanding the landscape of hermeneutical ideas sharpen our Bible teaching?

You can register online now.

TIME TO TALK ABOUT THAT MILLION VIEW VIDEO

The fun finale of this year’s Marriage Refresh event was the making of a video, with each couple sharing their number of years married, from most newlywed to longest tenured marriages.

And the internet liked it!

Within 24 hours, it rocketed past any previous NF video in total views. It also brought additional attention to our NF YouTube page and its other videos.

It continued to amass views, escalating into the thousands . . and hundreds of thousands. And today, it surpassed 1 million.

Have you seen it yet?

Check out the million view video.

JANUARY 18 UPDATE – After reaching the million mark in 11 days, the video has added another million in the last 7 days.
