Finding Rest In God Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 29, 2005

based on 14 ratings

| 24,948 views

We run around in our lives looking for peace and rest - but when we see the promise of rest that God promises in Jesus sometimes we hesitate to "seal the deal." Let Him give you rest for your soul!

"I’d love to rest - if I only wasn’t so busy." That’s a statement a lot of us could make. Our society is one of constant motion and activity - if we aren’t always doing something we feel useless and worthless. This can invade our spiritual lives as well. We feel like if we aren’t always "on" and ...read more

Lot - The Struggle Of Righteousness

| 5,827 views

The stories in Genesis present Lot in a very negative light, but Peter and Abraham thought he was righteous. It is a time for adjusting our interpretation.

Lot – The struggle of righteousness Genesis 18:16-33 This is a classic passage because it depicts something that we somehow know we should not do, bargaining with God.
