Godly Generation Dies Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 3, 2018

The older generation failed to teach the younger generation God’s truth as Moses had commanded them (Deut. 6:1–9 ). It is bad enough that they forgot Joshua, their second greatest leader, but how could they forget the Lord?

Chapter 9 Godly Generation Dies [Judges 2.6-10] Scripture 6 And when Joshua had let the people go, the children of Israel went every man unto his inheritance to possess the land. 7 And the people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders that outlived Joshua, ...read more

Zebra In The Kitchen Series

Contributed by Coz Von on Jul 24, 2018

“Is this life, with all its toils, struggles, and disappointments, the sum of all that we are, or could be? and if we’re lucky— ends in dust? Is this our fate?” Well, yes, if the following view of our origins is correct. But on the other hand . . .

What does the purpose of our lives really depend upon? On how we got here— what else? As the oak is in the acorn, so our end is in our beginning. And what does that mean? Two primary, overarching views of human origins exist. The first sees the universe and everything in it as a product of purely ...read more

An Unexpected Tapestry

Contributed by Donavon Hill on Oct 9, 2017

Free Indeed!

Contributed by Dwight Davis on Jan 28, 2024
