Discussion on who is really the “prodigal” in Luke 15

September 21st, 2015
Jason Finch September 18 at 4:12pm So a friend told me that a local pastor wrote this on his Facebook page. I would like to know your thoughts regarding his statement. I completely disagree with this interpretation but what do you think? He said, “Who is the real prodigal in Luke 15? The younger son or the Father? Definition of prodigal - recklessly extravagant, one who spends or gives lavishly and profusely... You have a Father in heaven whose love is extravagant and unconditional, who longs . . .

Keep Praying and Remember Your Work Matters

September 21st, 2015
Jeff Laird September 16 at 9:45pm Cool aspect of an expanded role in our question-answering process: I find myself praying for others more often. Not-so-cool aspect of an expanded role in answering questions: I feel burdened to pray *hard*, for *a lot* of strangers, *all the time*.

Question on Eve’s response to the serpent in Genesis 3

September 14th, 2015
Gwen Sellers September 9 at 1:37pm Would anyone care to help me with a question? In Genesis 3:3, Eve seems to add to God's original command regarding the tree of knowledge of good and evil. I'm wondering how this affects the couple's innocence prior to their eating of the fruit. Why would either Adam or Eve feel the need to add extra restrictions to God's commands if sin was not yet an issue? Or am I missing something obvious here? Thank you!
