Lesson Preview

To speak or not to speak:  That is the question we will attempt to answer this Sunday.  When a person stumbles across something pretty spectacular, are they obligated to share the find with the general public?  If so, then why has Coca Cola been successful and adamant about keeping their formula a secret?

In the continuing story of Elisha, we will look at some men who came across something pretty spectacular.  After getting over the shock, they had to answer the question:  Do we keep this find to ourselves or do we share the good news? 

I have not yet titled the lesson, but you now know what it's about.  You can read all about it in 2 Kings, chapter 7.  But to get the context, I suggest you read chapters 6 - 8.

Oh, speaking of good news -- if you have some to share, you will have the opportunity at the beginning of class.  (Remind me if I forget.) 

See you Sunday with some good news.
