Christianity and science are two sides of the same coin, informing us of the immense creativity and complexity of the world that God created. To fully understand how great God is, we must see Him thru the lens of scripture and scientific discovery. Only then do we see how truly amazing He is.

Set the Captives Free
The Hamas attack on Israel caught us by surprise. “How could people act so terribly, do such terrible things?” we ask ourselves. When a daughter or a son tells us they want a sex change operation and they no longer consider themselves to be what they were born, we wonder “What is going on? HowContinue reading “Set the Captives Free”
The Gospel in Exodus: Lord of the Storm
Watching the news these days, I cannot help but notice how unsettling it is. Putin is threatening to invade the Ukraine, global climate change continues to wreak havoc, the ocean appears to be dying because of pollution and overfishing, the poles are melting, the stock market is crashing every other day, the west has wildfiresContinue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: Lord of the Storm”
The Gospel in Exodus: The Man God Uses
When God calls Moses at the burning bush, Moses objects, giving reasons why he is not the one for this mission. We often do the same when God calls us to a mission. Who is the man God calls? What is God looking for in a man before He calls him to a mission? DoContinue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: The Man God Uses”
The Gospel in Exodus: Experiencing God – A Matter of the Heart
What does it mean to experience God? Do we have to see a burning bush or the parting of the Red Sea? Moses’ experience of God at the burning bush changed him forever, and thru his life the Hebrew people and the entire world were blessed. However, the Hebrew people during the Exodus story alsoContinue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: Experiencing God – A Matter of the Heart”
The Gospel in Exodus: Come as You Are
We often feel like we have to get our act together before we can do something. We say things like, “We will have children when we are financially secure”, or “I will do this when I am older”, or “I will go to church when I have gotten my act together”, and so on. WeContinue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: Come as You Are”
The Gospel in Exodus: God Speaks
Our golden retriever ran away the other day. The more we called him the farther he went. We watched him follow two walkers into the park and disappear. Hoping he would eventually return on his own, we later received a phone call from the two walkers, who had taken him home with them – theyContinue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: God Speaks”
The Gospel in Exodus: The Burning Bush
Nothing gets our attention quite like fire does. They even trained us once that if we ever needed help, don’t yell “Help”, but yell “Fire”, and people will come running. The wildfires on the west coast have certainly gotten our attention over the last decade or so, specifically because the fires are so destructive. TheContinue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: The Burning Bush”
The Gospel in Exodus: Turn Aside and See
John Piper preached a famous sermon at Passion one year titled “Don’t Waste Your Life”. In it he spoke about aspects of the American Dream that run counter to the gospel and living a life of purpose and meaning. When Moses gets to Midian, he kind of enters into the BC version of that lifestyle. Continue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: Turn Aside and See”
The Gospel in Exodus: Moses on the Run
There is a great scene in Monty Python’s “Holy Grail” movie where Sir Robin runs away, and his companions sing a song about it. Many of us have run from something at one point in our life. Whether we would not admit to something we did, or refused to take responsibility for a mistake atContinue reading “The Gospel in Exodus: Moses on the Run”
