As we move into the book of Exodus we hear about Moses and all the plagues that God set against their gods. This leads to the final one that begins the practice of Passover and and therefor we learn how and why the Jewish people do this.

We continue through the bible with the birth of Moses.  As with the story of Joseph, what was done in evil God turned to good. If we keep faith with our God we will see how the hard things in our lives can cause some good to come of it.

This week we hear about how the suffering and sacrifice of Job is a scriptural foreshadowing of Jesus The Messiah and the price He paid for us.  We hear how God "sees us" in our suffering and is "with us" in our suffering.

Throughout the all the terrible things that befell Joseph in his life, he never blamed God or lost faith. God was with Joseph the whole time though and made all his trials to be something for good.

As long as we continue to wrestle with God we will be at odds with Him.  It's when we surrender that we might receive His blessings.

God makes a covenant with Abram that sounds incredible but Abram has faith in God and does as he's told. He does, of course, stumble many times on the road God has before him.

Seeing how wicker His creation had become, God decided to wipe them from the earth. He set loose a flood the covered the whole world destroying everything save Noah and his family who were instructed to build an ark and collect a certain amount...

The snake is a liar. Satan begins destroying mans relationship with God from the very beginning by getting Adam and Eve to doubt their Creator.

This week we start our year long trek through the whole Bible. Beginning with the beginning; the creation. 

Basic instructions before leaving earth?  Instruction manual? History?  None of these.  The bible is a collection of scriptures that leads to one major truth.  Jesus.

As this year comes to an end lets not look back to things that might have been but instead lets look forward to what we can do for God and with God to be better disciples.

The Light of God is always there to guide us.  Let us also be lights in a dark world to guide those around us to Jesus.

All through the Old Testament we see broken and estranged families.  The story of Joseph is one of those.  We need to learn from the failings of these people so that we don't let our brokenness stay the way it is.  We need to hav...

Instead of being concerned with our abundance, we should be willing to give of whatever we have.  Please support our missions.

Paul said in his letter to the Philippians that their God is their stomachs and their destiny is destruction. The bible is clear that there is nothing wrong with a feast as long as its for the right reason and all is invited to His table. ...

In the Gospel of Mark were told how Jesus healed ten lepers and sent them to the priest but one came back immediately to thank and praise Jesus for what he had done.  We need to remember the blessings in our lives and be aware of where the...

Traditions are great but they can end up becoming your religion instead of what they were intended for.  Make sure and keep Jesus as the focus in all your traditions.

In 1st Corinthians Ch. 16 Paul had to remind them of why and how generosity should be a natural reaction to the Gospel Of Jesus.

The good news is that Jesus rose from the dead and that if that is in question then His death was worthless.  But He did and in this chapter Paul expands on this point.

In 1st Corinthians chapter 14 Paul councils the church on the spiritual gift of speaking in tongues.  He also goes on to explain some of the roles of women in the church.

In this Chapter of 1st Corinthians Paul explains how our "gifts" come from the Holy Spirit and are temporary while "Love " is forever.

In Chapter 11 of 1st Corinthians Paul was demanding unity in the church not the viral division that was going on at the time.

In Paul's letter to Corinth he explains why just because something is permitted  doesn't mean that you should flaunt that freedom around those who might think it un-Godly. Don't ruin your credibility as a witness for Christ.

Today Frank explains what Paul meant  in his letter to the Corinthians concerning the equality in the relationship of men and woman with God and how the world and other believers hearing the Gospel might judge us.   

Jesus told the Pharisees that the two greatest commands were to love The Lord and to love your neighbor.  Expanding on that, Paul tells the Corinthians that we need to consider others beliefs when we are around them so that we may not caus...
