BREAKFAST CASSEROLES

Our last Bible Study for the summer ended. This Bible Study reminded me of why I didn't like "survey" classes in college. We couldn't study every verse, but only hit the high points. So much was left out! But what we studied was fabulous. We started out with the theme "He brought us out that He might bring us in" (Deuteronomy 6:23), and we ended with that same theme, only with an additional thought - "There is no other god like our God and no other people like His people." (Deuteronomy 33:26, 29) Just as true on this side of the cross!

Our last Bible Study meal was Breakfast for Dinner. We had breakfast casseroles, muffins, fruit salad, cinnamon rolls, and milk and coffee.
