There are many people who claim to believe something because of some degree of empirical evidence. People who believe the earth is old claim to believe it is old based on some manner of carbon dating. They claim to base their theories of evolution on similarities in genetic sequences or fossils. In the same manner,…

Theology Thursday: Apologetics and Creation Part 1
The first eleven chapters in the Bible are my favorite. As someone who questioned their veracity before I started following Jesus, I understand there are some difficult things in these chapters. When we read these chapters, we read them like 21st century Americans obsessed with particular orders of events and the scientific method—things that the…

The Wondrous Position of the Woman: The Unburdened Implications of Genesis 2 In Apologetics

While Genesis 1 presented no differences in the roles or places of men and women, Genesis 2 does. In Genesis 1, we read an overview of the…

Let There Be Stars, Fish, and Birds
We have observed three days of creation. Today we will consider a fourth and fifth day. We have seen Moses using more inexact language than we might like. We have seen that the purpose of Genesis 1 is not to present an exact, detailed account of creation. Moses is painting broad strokes. Though he asserts…

The Bible Series, Episode 1 Interaction
Last week, we started watching the Bible Series again. This time with our church family at Grace. I wanted to share a few reflections on each episode. In episode 1, there were a few claims that were made that caused me to reflect back on the Scriptures, as we should always do. In fact, that…

God’s Image, Not Our Design
A long time ago, there was a father who built a house for his son. He knew precisely what kind of man his son was and upon finishing the house, he handed the keys to his son and entrusted his son to keep the house and take care of it. Every so often, the father…
