Your organization helps us to keep the biblical truth as the most powerful source when learning and studying various concepts of the Bible and sharing the biblical truths with others.  It has become one of my most used resources for myself and others. We all must continue to present truthful, godly responses to the myriad of problem facing us on a daily basis in each of our lives.   Love your website.  We use it often and tell others about it as well and they love it too.

Sample Q&A from February 2016

March 1st, 2016
Question: Why was God sorry for creating man in genesis 6:6. It stated that it repented God that He had created man. It makes it seem like God changed His mind but God doesn't change and He doesn't make mistakes. Answered by: Heath Tibbetts, who has been a volunteer with us since August, 2007. Answer:This is a great question, and one that I wrestled with as I began reading the Bible more regularly. We see this stated both here in Genesis 6 and also after the failure of King Saul to Israel.

Discussion on ways to do communion

February 26th, 2016
Heath Tibbetts February 25 at 2:57pm Since I figure MOST of you go to church, I'm looking for any creative ideas you have seen or used in your churches for observing Lord's Supper? I'm planning some variety in hopes of rekindling the significance of this observance in our church. Thanks! Comments Brian Marcum Perhaps a liturgical approach to corporate confession if you're Church hasn't done that before. Or perhaps intinction... or both. Like · Reply . . .
