John’s Use of Genesis
John used Genesis to show that the Son of God, made flesh in the Incarnation, was at the beginning of Creation and through him all things were created. Jesus is the Logos: the reason for being and the meaning of life.
Breaking Bread in Our Homes… Passover 2020
We are in a season where we are separated and have to have communion with our families in our homes, which is like the time the Hebrews were hiding in their homes during Passover, as the last plague in Eqypt took the first born children of the Eqyptians.

It is therefore a religious belief, whose enforcement by the state violates the First Amendment’s second clause by establishing a religion.

How God Uses Failure in Our Lives
We are only fit to be leaders of men when we have failed in our own strength and look only to God for our success.
Where is the God of Beauty?
Sharon Herald > The Scholars Corner November 14, 1998 Where is the God of Beauty? 1998 by Jefferis Kent Peterson, I Sometimes we Christians are a boring lot. With intense and focused zeal we pound the drum, driving home the point of our latest cause with rhythmic fury. Whether that issue is politics or doctrine, […]
