     | 4,309 views

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Genesis 18 1. And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the ...read more

    Lee Strobel presents a message to a Colorado church shortly after the movie theater massacre in Aurora, Colorado.

    It was the worst mass shooting in American history – 70 people shot by a gunman, 12 of them killed, while they were watching the midnight showing of a new movie just 21 miles from where we’re sitting.
