Leadership
Here's the principle of officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties, and tens. Those officials were only meant for the simple cases. Delegation of authority is God's plan for growing influence and leadership.…

A God Pattern
God establishes well this pattern of 6 and 1. A way to configure life. In principle, on the 6th day, you need to make provision for the day of rest. Interesting how a principle so old figures into issues…

So two disciples following John the Baptist before Jesus shows up. Andrew was one. Who was the other? They both left when John identified Jesus. Peter's dad is also named John. So many characters named…

Slavery
Interesting here how God is more concerned with the heart of the slave than with the issue of slavery. It seems that culturally we will always experience injustice in one form or another (even the kind…

I Guess it Didn't Turn out too well
It seems that Lot's choice didn't pan out well. Now the question becomes, was it the will of God for Abram to give him the choice. And if he'd not chosen it, would Abram have wound up in Lot's predicament.
