A big word of “Thanks” goes [...]

Raising Radical Kids

We are currently in our third back-to-back missions conference (whew!), Cornerstone Baptist Temple in Dayton OH, and we are staying with some pretty amazing people.

Right Idea, Wrong Time

Numbers 14:40-45 “And they rose up early in the morning, and gat them up into the top of the mountain, saying, Lo, we be here, and will go up unto the place which the LORD hath promised: for we have sinned. 41 And Moses said, Wherefore now do ye transgress the commandment of the LORD? but it shall not prosper. 42 Go not up, for the LORD is not among you; that ye be not smitten before your enemies. 43 For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and ye shall fall by the sword: because ye are turned away from the LORD, therefore the LORD will not be with you. 44 But they presumed to go up unto the hill top: nevertheless the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and Moses, departed not out of the camp. 45 Then the Amalekites came down, and the Canaanites which dwelt in that hill, and smote them, and discomfited them, even unto Hormah.” When God told the Israelites to go up into the Promised Land, they were afraid and did not want to go up.  They rebelled against the Lord and refused to go up.  When God told them that they would wander in the wilderness for forty years because of their rebellion, then they decided to go up without the Lord’s blessing.  Their efforts were resisted, and they failed because the time had passed and God was not with them
