"Strange that so few come to the woods to see how the pine lives and grows and spires, lifting its evergreen arms to the light – to see its perfect success."
~ Henry David Thoreau ~

Snapshots


The Revised Common Lectionary was created by clergy to provide synergy across denominations so that the messages heard each Sunday and during the week followed predetermined Scripture selections. Each Snapshot was developed for an adult discussion group gathered to discuss weekly worship Scripture selections in more detail. They generally follow the Lectionary. Some of the notes used for this group are provided below.

The study material is gathered from the Internet and does not represent original work. Material is a "snapshot" of available study material and where it was used as is, the material is referenced back to the original website in the footnotes. Some of Lost Pine's favorite resources can be found here.

You can see videos of the actual worship services including the sermons for some of the discussion studies below.  Click here to see what is available.
