Hi Dave,
I’d love to study Luke with you, and then bring in or compare with Matthew (and the other two Gospels) as appropriate and timely. I’ve put a couple of links to Bible translations at the right. I like the ESV, as it has a closer feel to the original texts. But I’ve also put the NIV there as well.
Here’s a prayer to start our study:
Lord God, Almighty Heavenly Father,
You’ve given us your written word as a testimony to your greatness, your kindness, your love, and your plan for this world. We ask you to be present in our efforts: give us understanding by your Holy Spirit; give us a shared desire to know you, love you, and serve you more in this life, so that we may be prepared for the life to come.
In the name of your Son who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, Amen.
