This book has been written about Joseph, the son of Jacob. He had had two dreams about his family members bowing to him, and those dreams had made them very angry with him. In fact, they hated him so much that they actually tried to get rid of him. They sold him to some merchants going to Egypt. Then, an Egyptian captain bought him out of the local slave market and brought him into his household. Because the Lord was with him, Joseph excelled everywhere he went and in everything that he did. But that did not keep him from getting into a lot of trouble. He ended up in prison when the ...

Advent to Epiphany is the first volume in the From Text to Sermon series designed to help pastors and their flocks better understand the rhythm and purpose of the Christian calendar. As Christians, we view time from a different perspective than the rest of the world. We may use the same seconds, minutes, hours, dates, and days, but we view the meaning and purpose of history and the future by considering God’s actions through the children of Abraham and through His only begotten Son, Jesus of Nazareth. Certain events in the Bible, though over two thousand years old, provide the key to ...

This book has taken three fairly short books that are very similar to each other and combined them into one book. The three books are God Was in Control of Abraham's Circumstances, God Was in Control of Job's Circumstances, and God Was in Control of Joseph's Circumstances. One can learn different lessons from each saint. So it just makes sense to combine the three short books into one still fairly short book. There is one note, however, to be made with respect to the organization of this text before concluding this Introduction. Something that the reader might find useful is boxes ...

In one of the shortest yet most powerful statements in the Bible, Jesus warns His followers with three words: "Remember Lot's wife" (Luke 17:32). This seemingly simple command carries a depth of meaning that stretches across the ages and speaks directly to the hearts of believers today. To understand the significance of Jesus’ words, we must first revisit the story of Lot’s wife, examine the context in which Jesus spoke these words, and reflect on the enduring spiritual lessons that they convey.

The seven tribes or nations that inhabited the land of Canaan before the Israelites, under the leadership of Joshua, were instructed to conquer are listed in Deuteronomy 7:1. These nations were larger and stronger than Israel, but God promised to give them victory. Here are the seven tribes, their names, and traditional interpretations of their meanings: These tribes were not only literal nations that the Israelites had to conquer, but their names and descriptions also carry deeper spiritual connotations, symbolizing various challenges or vices that believers must overcome.

È il "comandamento nuovo" che umanizza e dà un significato universale a tutti gli altri che, se assunti nella loro pienezza, convergono verso questo appello unitario. Esso esprime la rottura più importante compiuta da Gesù rispetto al giudaismo: la logica della religione dei Padri si apre a una dimensione "altra", segnando il passaggio dalla Legge mosaica alla legge dell'Amore, come presenza di Dio nella storia umana. Non è legge della Ragione, ma verità che appartiene alla condizione di ogni singolo.

If you love someone, set them free. If they come back, it was meant to be. Heard that one before? We're not supposed to get "attached" to another person. We're supposed to remain free and independent, yet at the same time we all want commitment, intimacy, and real love. Is that even possible?
