What Does God Think? (Masculinity & Femininity Vlog 1)
There is much talk today about what it means to be a man or woman. Just ask someone what they think the phrases “Good Man” vs. “Real Man” mean to them and you’ll begin to see. Today’s vlog is a continuation of the discussion from Sunday on this subject of what biblical masculinity and femininity look like. We laid a foundation on these elements from Genesis 3 then. Join us through this week and next as we continue to solidify…
The Domino Effect
On Sunday, Pastor Paul spoke from Nehemiah 7-8 and dedicated time to walk us through the Inductive Bible Study method and the importance of a Literal Grammatical Historical hermeneutic. Today we’re going to continue in that discussion as we explore an article Paul and I talked about last week together. Its content is common talk in our day yet reveals troubling doctrinal errors that then leads to a domino effect of toppling the common and foundational elements of Christianity. Thanks…

Is the Christian Worldview Gone? (GPS Vlog #7)
Many years ago now, there as an uproar when former President Obama remarked that the U.S. was not a “Christian nation.” While there may have been a lot of resistance to this statement, two polling agencies discovered that he may not be far from the truth. Join us today as we explore the subject of worldviews and what present surveys tell us about the state of our nation and the church and the great responsibility and mission we have before…
FASHIONED BY GOD (GENESIS 2)
Today’s text once more proves how fundamental these opening chapters of Genesis are to many Christian beliefs. Today’s text hits the image of man, genders, and marriage among other things. The word that sticks out to me though is this: “formed”. God formed man. He’s formed you (Ps 139). And that puts us in a unique position with purpose. Join us!
ABOUT MORE THAN CREATION
As I was purposing to continue in the subject of anthropology a bit more today, I kept coming back to the first few chapters of Genesis. Those first three chapters are about more than just creation. Within them we find truth on creation, gender/identity, marriage, sin, salvation, and more. If we cannot take any part of those chapters literally, what authority does the Bible have in any one of those areas or the Bible as a whole in our lives?
