I’m going to share some special content, (stuff I’ve never taught before), invite some Q and A, and recruit some new Secret Name tea...
No, this is not an episode of Blue’s Clues… and only those with young children during the last 10 years or so will understand that reference…
Instead, this is about a post written by Josh over at “Reconstructing the First Century Story.” His post is called “Knowing the historical context of the NT.”
In the post, Josh reminds us what it would have been like to receive one o...
Peace of the soul is often looked on as a destination in life’s journey, something that we aspire to and may someday reach if we are wise enough or spiritual enough. After a recent vacation in Rome, I now see peace not as a destination, but as a beginning, as the best place to start each journey of my life.
I had arrived in Rome in a travel group of fifty high school seniors and parents, the last stop in a whirlwind tour of Europe. I was e...
I honestly don’t even have a clue how they’ve predicted this, but apparently today the world’s population will hit 7 billion people (I hope that baby wins a TV, or a blanket or something). And, as expected, for months people have been spinning off their worst case scenarios.
Can the world sustain 7 billion people?
Will this be the beginning of the end?
Take a deep breath.
Because most reliable sources say our world will have no ...
I’ve invited several people to write “guest blog posts” for this blog. There are several reasons for this: 1) To offer different perspectives. 2) To generate even more discussion and conversation between blogs. 3) To introduce other bloggers to my readers.
(If you are interested in writing a guest blog post, please contact me at aknox[at]sebts[dot]com.)
Today’s post was written by Mark Hanson, who has ...
I have been studying and preaching through the gospel of Mark. In this blessed season I have been greatly impacted by the intentionality of the narrator. If you are familiar with Mark you know that he often employes a sandwhich technique. This pattern of flanking a story with two parts of a related story to make an emphatic point is a regular occurance. Additionally, I have been gripped by the irony that he uses (as does Matthew, Luke and John)....
Very few people I know have the dedication of Marc Andre when it comes to investing in your dreams. He exhibits what John Maxwell calls – The Law of Sacrifice (in order to go up you need to give up). Recently, I sat down with Marc and asked him some questions about his new project.
How would you describe your new project Snapshots of the Shattered Soul?
A collection of real life snapshots, this project touches on issues of depression, a...
This is the 180th passage in “Scripture… As We Live It.”
And they went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia. And when they had come up to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them. So, passing by Mysia, they went down to Troas stayed in that region waiting until God told them exac...
If you’ve been reading my blog over the last three months, then you probably known that the doctor told me that I needed to change my eating and exercise habits or I would be headed toward a very unhealthy lifestyle. Actually, my lifestyle was already unhealthy, but it would become even more unhealthy. So, I changed what and how I was eating, and I began exercising – walking and then running eventually...
Three years ago, I wrote a post called “I will build my charitable organization.” The post was a response to another very good post that I had read.
I wrote this post to encourage people to think about what Jesus meant when he said, “I will build my church.” Did he have in mind the things that we think about when we think about “church”? Some would say, “Yes,” but ma...
