Why do you think what you think about God?
The Different Views of God flow-chart below introduces a way to discuss the different views people have about God. By going through a series of simple questions, a person can pin down their view of God and know what their view of God is called. This gives people the opportunity to compare their view of God to other views to understand it better. Knowing what a view of God is called allows you to study the view further. In this way a person can further their understanding of their own way of thinking about God as well as understand where other people are in their way of thinking about God. Theism is marked because it is the traditional way Christians think of God.

After Saul had offered the burnt offering to the Lord instead of waiting for Samuel to arrive, Samuel said to him,[1]
“But now your kingdom shall not endure. The Lord has sought out for Himself a man after His own heart, and the Lord has appointed him as ruler over His people, because you have not kept what the Lord commanded you.”
1 Samuel 13:14 (NASB95)
This little statement, “A man after His own heart” comes with little explanation. This phrase spoken to King Saul by God’s mouthpiece, the prophet Samuel is not about Saul but rather about his replacement, David. The one that God sees as a person after his own heart is David. Now, David is a man we soon understand to be imperfect and one who commits grievous sins against God. We wonder how David can be an example of a person after God’s own heart. How can we hope to live a life after God’s own heart ourselves?

Examining the context of a verse.
Leaders Notes:
This article is designed to work best as a PDF get it here.
The first part of the study takes a selection from Melvin’s Moby Dick. The lesson begins by just showing two lines without any context and asking people to consider the meaning of the two lines.
When the PDF is printed single sided on 8.5” x 11” paper these lines will appear in the same position on the next page. This is to provide a visual effect that they are looking at the same thing but with more information. Ask the students to consider the added context and decide the meaning of the two lines again. The first example ends with providing the correct answer.
