    Daily Devotional: Genesis 35:1-8

    Bethel is the place of revelation. This is why so many contemporary charismatic movements are attracted to the name. God’s revelation of Himself to Jacob at Bethel, though, is not in line with the contemporary charismatic movement. Jacob calls the people to end their idolatry prior to arriving at Bethel. They give up their idols…

  • Creation: Day One

    Creation: Day One

    Today we begin our expository journey through Genesis 1-11. There are claims that Genesis 1-11 are a separate work from Genesis 12-50. I believe they are one, cohesive work, each chapter consisting of literal history. Chapters 1-11 do differ from Chapters 12-50, however. They are more like the Ancient Near East Myths of the region,…

  • Are You a Steve?

    Today before church, my wife and I went to Bojangles to have some supper with some friends. While we were eating, someone sitting at the table adjacent to us turned and asked us a question concerning the gospel of Christ. He classified himself as an agnostic that believed in the existence of supernatural/unexplained events. He…

  • Marriage on the New Earth?

    I have been married to my wonderful wife now for eight months and must say that the relationship is the second greatest experience that envelops my life (the first being the relationship I have with God). Here, though, is what bothers me concerning the marriage relationship: It is difficult, if not impossible, for me to…
