I’ve been asked by many 21st century kids, who have been used to the age of technology if the Bible is as archaic as the “parting of the Red Sea” or the “40 years in wilderness” kind of stuff. I can’t blame the kids, nor the young urban professionals of today, who think of the Bible and the realities ...
Have you ever stopped to consider what the Bible really is. For sure, it is the word of God. But it is more than that. It is history, poetry, proverbs, parables, allegories, biography, correspondence, diaries, prophecy, and apocalyptic literature. But it is still more. From Genesis 1:1 all the way through ...
My favorite novel, as a young person, was In His Steps, written by Charles Sheldon. The premise of this novel is simple.

I love stories and I love to read, but my eyes are exhausted and my mind is fatigued by my hard work days. On the weekends ...
It wasn’t until my mom hit fifty years old that she started to go to church on a regular basis. We went when I was a child, but back then it was only once in a while, and because we moved around so much, we never really felt like we were a part of any church. I personally don’t go, though I do maintain ...
When I was growing up, I was both awed and intimidated by church. It is hard to describe the wonder and fear that I felt in the face of all of that stained glass, all of those icons. It is either something that you have experienced, or something that you have not. Everything about church was pretty impressive ...
A lot of people think that Bible Sunday school is enough for their kids to learn all about the word of God. Although Bible Sunday school is important, it is not the whole story.
