To pray in the name of God as the Alpha & Omega means to pray to our God who knows the beginning from the end, and IS the beginning and the end. It is to surrender control to the God for whom is our life’s aim and goal. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As we prepare room in our hearts for the celebration of Christmas, Isaiah 9:6 invites us to slow down and listen carefully to who this child truly is.

The Bible, particularly the OT, contains passages that can be difficult to interpret. Among them is the command for Abraham to sacrifice his son, Isaac, found in Genesis 22.

Genesis 6:1-4 is a mysterious text, and one of the most difficult interpretive passages in the whole Old Testament. Who are the fabled Nephilim? Who are the "sons of God" we see referenced? And what (if anything) is the connection between the two? Join us as we explore these and other questions connected to this challenging set of verses. Hosted on Acast.

And it was Christ’s choice to walk it WITH us, to walk us through it, and to change us from the inside out as a result of it.
