About Myself and the Study

I am a locomotive engineer who works for Union Pacific Railroad. I have raised 6 children, my two boys have both served time in the military, James is still in the Navy.  I have a daughter studying for to be a medical doctor, and I have 3 children still at home.  During my spare time I lead this Bible study over the internet. My schedule at work changes daily, so I hardly ever work the same shift two days in a row.  As a result of this, sometimes I email the studies in the morning, afternoon, night or even the next day, so bear with me on this. You may find it better to follow one day behind if you are blessed to have a regular schedule.  

Our numbers are growing daily, we have a good mixture of railroaders and church people involved in the study.  Anyone is welcomed to join us.  We have a registration page built for this purpose, feel free to fill out the information and join the study.  I hate junk mail with a passion, so if you get on the study by mistake or catch yourself deleting the studies without going through them, please contact us and have your name removed from the list.

We are committed to reading and studying the Bible daily.  I will email out a schedule when it is updated, and at the same time will post it on the internet.  The idea behind the study is that there are three passages listed on the schedule, the first one is the one we go in depth on, the second two are for reading only.  I will write and comment only on the first passage, email it out and post it on the Bulletin Board.  Everyone is invited to respond, but due to the nature of the internet, we are going to protect the list of recipients, keeping the master list secret.  I have listed the names on the members webpage in order that we know who is on the study.   My main resource is Logos Software Scholars Edition, available at www.logos.com for a price, they also have smaller editions which may be more to suit your needs.

We are constantly adding and changing the study as we are felt led to do so.  My passion is to encourage you to take what you learn and apply it to your life.  Then when you go back to your church, you will spread the truth of the Gospel to many more people than I could ever dream of reaching.  Join me in learning and applying God's word.

Remember, this study is constantly under construction as the needs change in our lives, bear with us and grow with us.  I am planning to add a photo album to this page eventually, which will show what my mug looks like, along with my family.  We hope to add photo's from the members eventually, I can add a photo to your name on the member's list if you like. 

Lots of stuff going on, I work on this in my spare time, so be patient on the updates.

Joe Turner.
