The Fall Effect Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Feb 12, 2021

The first response after sin entered the world was that Adam and Eve instantaneously went from no-shame nakedness to shame-filled nakedness. Such nakedness caused them to hide themselves from each other, and also hide in fear from God.

Does God Work In Mysterious Ways?

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Oct 25, 2024

One of the first things every Christian needs to learn about God is that He is incomprehensible, which means we are not capable of fully understanding Him.

However, that does not mean He is mysterious because He has revealed Himself quite extensively in the Bible, nature, and especially in Jesus, who shows us a wonderful picture of what the Triune God is like, to the point that we can truly and intimately know Him well. I hear the phrase "God ...read more

Peter And Easter

Contributed by James Hickman on Mar 19, 2016
