When You Really Blow It Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 7, 2022

The actions of Moses brought serious consequences. He led the people of Israel for almost forty years. Now it was time to cross into the promise land. Moses would not lead them in. He would not even be able to enter. Moses really blew it. But this is a message of God's grace.

Have you ever really blown it? Maybe there was a time when you lost your temper at a meeting and slammed your fist down on the table? Suddenly you realize this is not how I wanted things to go. Maybe you did something far worse. You realize that nothing is going to be the same from this time ...read more

Was A Sacrificial Lamb Really Necessary For Humanity?

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jun 9, 2024

If a sacrificial lamb was necessary for people during Biblical times, is one still necessary for people of today?

As the Hebrews arranged for their departure from subjugation in Egypt, they were told to make bread without yeast (“unleavened bread”) on the grounds that they lacked the necessary amount of time to sit and wait for it to rise. Yeast was likewise an image of wrongdoing, so they were directed to ...read more

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 13, 2024
