-
Numbers 34-36
The final installment of the Book of Numbers read in the King James Version of the Bible. (King James Version is what I prefer due to it's verifiable accuracy based on the Dead Sea Scrolls in the original language of Koine Greek and Hebrew. That does not mean it is without translation error as I...
-
S5 Ep. 33 - Logos and Logic
LOGOS, not legos! It's the Greek word for "the WORD" which is used in John 1. It is also used in Revelation and 1 John and many other places in scripture. An interesting note about this word used to describe Jesus is that we get the English word and concept of LOGIC from it. Have you noticed a…

Listen today to hear my daughters take on Jesus feeding the 5000 and walking on water! There are so many miracles in this story, not to mention all the people that Jesus healed that day.

S5 Ep. 28 - Elihu, Job’s younger friend
Elihu speaks about wisdom from God. He gets a lot of things right in his discourse to Job, but some things are wrong and we should be willing to learn from what he says. Remember, that Job suffered the loss of his children in addition to his businesses, his house, his health, his friends, and…

S5 Ep. 27 - Faithful Friends
This episode is quite the opposite of what we found in the book of Job.

This story is about 4 friends who went to great effort to help a friend in need. So...
-
S5 Ep. 26 - Job’s Response

more -
S5 Ep. 23 - Job’s Response to Friends
Jobs response to his friends was multi-faceted: 1. He rebuked their lies 2. He maintained his innocents 3. He maintained his faith in God 4. He called them out for being wicked and treating him like an enemy. Sometimes those who profess to be "people of God" or friends, are not really good…

S5 Ep. 22 – Proof of God pt. 4- Ancient Text

-
S5 Ep.11 - Proof of God Part 1- Science
I love philosophy, science, and history and it is very interesting to me that the Bible has been proven to hold true regarding science, history, and the human experience; yet when it comes to the supernatural, people question it. When I respect someone for speaking the truth consistently, being...
