The wheels keep on turnin'

Last night's bible study really started generating cerebrum motion. Not only was I processing the lesson but this thought also kept bouncing around: What is the purpose of Bible study's and sermons? The bible calls it teaching, but when you teach someone something you want it to stay. This is my theory, Sermons should not just be info that is being taught. I think that they should stir people up and they should have to think about it. If some one sits for fourty-five minuites just taking in info that they immediatly accept; What will keep them from accepting alternate info later on a.k.a too stupid to think on your own. My point is if a sermon causes someone to think they eventually will come to a conclusion or belief, if the individual has taken the time to think on and study the problem they are less likley to sporadically jump to diffrent conclusions and explinations, creating a stronger beleiver.
