As you gain a deeper understanding of this great miracle, you will find that when God allows a storm in your life...it comes with great purpose; if you miss the purpose, you may miss God's will for your life. So, let go of your fear by grabbing hold of your faith...let the storms come, and let the waters rise-God is taking you deeper.

A Spacious Life: Trading Hustle and Hurry for the Goodness of Limits


Ashley Hales - 2021
    The thing is, instead of resulting in a sense of accomplishment, this limitlessness merely has us doing more and trying harder--leaving us depleted and dissatisfied. With life and faith. So Ashley Hales invites us to discover a better way: a more spacious life.

Ashley helps us recognize that when we live within these limits, we discover a life filled with purpose, joy, and rest. This is the spacious life--finding true freedom within the good limits given to us by our good God.

In the Beginning


Henri Blocher - 1979
    It will not call off the Quest for its origins." The opening chapters of Genesis -- important at any time -- have been the focal point of controversy for more than a century. Few topics have been so hotly debated by theologians, philosophers and scientists alike. Henri Blocher argues that our primary task is to discover what these key chapters of the Bible originally meant. Only then will we be able to unravel the knotty issues surrounding human origins. Taking into account a vast array of scholarship, Blocher provides a detailed study of creation week, the image of God, the significance of male and female, the garden covenant, the Fall, the curse and the promise of redemption. He also offers significanct theological insights into the creation-evolution debate.
