Ok, so because of the culture in which we live and the recent decision by the Supreme Court and same sex marriage, I’ll go ahead and tackle the subject of David and Jonathan’s friendship. It’s quite a coincidence that this reading came up the same day I just spent writing my response to happenings in…

NewLSFB294: The New Lifespring Family Audio Bible – 1 Samuel 17
First, let me say that this translation disagrees with most other translations in regards to Goliath’s height. In our translation today, the number given was “close to seven feet tall”. Most others say it was six cubits and a span. So what is a cubit, and what is a span? Before mankind had agreed on…

There’s a popular meme today that you’ve probably heard. “You had just one job…” Saul was given just one job. Completely wipe out the Amalekites. Kill all the men, women, children, infants, oxen, sheep, camels, and donkeys, and destroy everything they have. But for various reasons, none of them good, Saul failed to do what…

Why do you suppose Saul was hiding among the equipment when it was time for the people to see who it was that God had chosen to be their king? Doesn’t that strike you as an odd thing for Saul to do at this particular time? So get the picture. Samuel has already anointed Saul’s…

If you’ve been listening to my podcasts for any length of time, you know how how important I think grace is. What a marvelous and awesome (in the true sense of the word) gift is grace. To receive forgiveness and favor from a righteous and holy God, not through my efforts at all, but because…

Of course you’ve heard the phrase, “Be careful of what you wish for. You just might get it.” The Philistines wanted the Ark of the Covenant because it was known far and wide that the presence of the God of Israel was there. (Of course, from our perspective here in the 21st century, we know…

Sometimes I think the so called modern translations go just a bit too far in trying to simplify the language. In chapter 3, verse 3 there’s the phrase “the Holy Box”. Other translations call it “the ark of God”. It was the Ark of the Covenant. Anyway, I’d like to share with you what F….
