Genesis Part 2: The Story Continues
October 21-24, 2021
Now offered as a VIRTUAL Event as well as in person!
In October 2021, we will continue our exploration into this remarkable first book of the Bible with "Genesis Part 2: The Story Continues." After covering the first 25 chapters in Part I, we will now look to the second half of the book and address Genesis chapters 26-50. The family story of Abraham's kinsmen continues, beginning with Isaac, but primarily focusing on Jacob and his sons, who became the beginning of Israel's Twelve Tribes.
In October 2019, we covered the background of Genesis and the first 25 chapters in "Genesis Part 1: Book of Origins".
"FRANCE AND RELIGION: THE BIG PICTURE" 3 - PART COURSE
In this course, we’ll explore three areas:
-
The surprising thread of religion throughout French history, in spite of its secular reputation today.
-
Caesar, Gaul and the Galations give the background on the fierce tribe Paul would encounter in the next century that led to our New Testament letter, "Galatians".
-
The Protestant Reformation's ripple effect on France and what it meant for politics, culture and even the Founding Fathers of the American colonies.
Latest Post
I had the privilege of recently being in the South of France, where we saw the prehistoric art of the Chauvet Cave. You probably remember when this magnificent discovery was made in the 1990s of cave drawings created some 30,000 years ago.
Nothing prepared me for their power and beauty, their contemporary timelessness, and the sense that we were witnessing what was holiest for a people who were crying out: “I was here. I matter. Look at our world and behold the beauty and wonder of it all.”

A VIRTUAL BIBLE TALK
"PHILIPPIANS: PAUL'S LESSON IN JOY"
During this time of a pandemic and challenging economy, nothing could be better than taking a deep dive into Paul's letter to the Philippians. In spite of challenging circumstances for both Paul (the author of the letter) and the people of Philippi (the recipients), Paul's counsel is about the importance of joy regardless of circumstances.
Please join us for this virtual talk that is appropriate for both teens and adults.

Biblical Leadership Course
This course is for you if you’re interested in ramping up your leadership skills, all of which are actually grounded in biblical principles that have proven timeless and true.
As someone who spent over 20 years helping companies with their leadership development and who has loved and studied the Bible most of my life, I’m happy to bring you this course on Biblical Leadership. The course marries my two areas of expertise—business (I formed and ran five of my own companies and managed companies for other owners) and the Bible (I obtained a graduate degree in Biblical Studies at a leading seminary).
