HoHum: What kind of a baker is this? Usually what the baker would do was build a big fire in the oven at night and then he would only have hot coals then next morning, much better to bake with.

The Defiance Of The Queen Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 2, 2021

Queen Vashti was expected to behave in a way contrary to conscience and she refused the king's command. Her refusal was the right decision to make, but it cost her dearly. Living upright will not always gain one the favor of the world.

King Ahasuerus had thrown a six month long party, culminating with a seven day finale. He had provided an elaborate escapade for all the princes and servants within the ...read more

Let's Not Drink To This Series

Contributed by Tim White on Mar 11, 2013

Lot's (Abraham's nephew) ultimate downfall in his spiral descension ended up with the deception of alcohol.

Some decisions cost us more than we ever want to pay. This is true with Lot, but he was a slow learner. I can identify with him on that. I am a slow learner when it comes to some things. Perhaps we all are. Sometimes I get a question: Is it a sin to drink in moderation? There are many sides to ...read more

"Return To The Garden"

Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Jul 12, 2005

God did not create Eve until Adam had learned to be the "Keeper of the Garden." If our sons are not taught to be "keepers of the garden," there is no hope for the future of America. America’s gardens (homes) will become a wilderness!

Title: "Return to the Garden" Introduction: God Made a Garden. Have you ever wondered why God made man in the first place? As you study the creation story, it is very evident that God was very pleased with his beautiful garden. But there was no man to till the garden soil. He made man to be ...read more

Destructive Lifestyle Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 12, 2022

At first glance these were great days to be alive. But, a warning from the prophet Hosea revealed a deep-seated spiritual bankruptcy. The prophet Hosea gave a message of hope in the midst of coming judgment. Hosea’s preaching includes an appeal to repent.

It must have been exciting to live in the Northern Kingdom of Israel in 800 BC. You could get up early and check the stock market prices and see new records set. New record highs set every day.
