Daily Devotional: Exodus 6:14-30
Here, we read the genealogies of the Levites in the land of Egypt up to the sons of Aaron. The text repeats itself, the Moses and Aaron listed in the genealogy are the same Moses and Aaron who spoke to Pharaoh. They are meant to be emphasized as Levites as if it is important. When…

Daily Devotional: Ephesians 5:1-4
Therefore, since we put off our old selfish selves and put on Christ, we are instructed to be imitators of God. We are His beloved children. Just as Christ gave Himself up for us as an offering and sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma, we also give ourselves up for others. This is our…

Daily Devotional: Romans 13:7-14
Paul continues to exhort the unincorporated in Rome about how to live just lives. He lists a few of the Old Testament Commandments, but ultimately, he admits it simply comes down to loving other people sincerely. It would be difficult for Paul to teach the whole degree of the Law, every minute detail, to the…

Daily Devotional: Romans 8:1-9
Paul clarifies what he means when he states that the Law is fulfilled. Paul has a high view of the Law. He is a Jew. He already clarified that he did not mean the Law was abolished. Since all people have transgressed the Law, all people stood condemned. Now there is no condemnation for those…

Cain and Abel

The Serpent, Sin, and the first Divided House
We have read the two creation accounts, and are set up to read about what we refer to as the Fall of Humanity—the moment humankind sinned against God and was removed from paradise, the moment the power of sin overtook human actions, thoughts, and beliefs. God has instructed people not to eat from the Tree…

“I’m Fully Who I Am”
Paul has addressed sin in the local church, from porneia to pugnaciousness. Now, he explains why sin is so bad. Have you ever wondered, when reading through Scripture, why God has certain rules and considers certain things to be sin? How can that be a sin when it makes me so happy? It doesn’t hurt…

On Trippin’ Christians
Jesus taught that sons are exempt from the civil and ceremonial laws of the Torah while strangers are under the Law. In order to enter the kingdom of heaven, we must be converted to be like a child rather than a stranger. It is better for anyone who causes a child of God to stumble…

What is Redemption?
We are drawing to an end to this series as we walk through our local church’s belief statement. We’ve taken the time to look at the foundation of ministry at The Church at Sunsites and have prepared the way for this new chapter in the local church’s life. I am excited and hopeful about the…

You Are Enough
When I was in seminary pursuing my Master’s degree, I remember signing up for courses one semester and, shortly after signing up for courses, going on staff at a church in the area. At that point I was working full time, third shift at a grocery store, Going to school full-time during the day, and…
