The last few days we’ve attended the Global Leadership Summit in Pasadena, CA. As always, it was incredibly inspiring and challenging, but for me, this year particularly so as I was energized in a new way to do all I can in this and my associated ministries to help you know, trust, and apply the Bible and to teach it to others.

Jesus replied to His critics by saying “You are in error because you don’t know the scriptures, (Matt.22:29).” And many Christians believe that His reply is a summary statement that reminds us that all we don’t know, how we ought to live today and forever, can be found when we get to know the Bible.

In the Bible class I teach one of the members asked me about so-called, “prophets” today. A friend invited her to a prophetic meeting, and she went but did not feel comfortable with the words the prophet pronounced over her, nor did the rest of her family. [Read more…]
Introductory note from Yvon: I created this infographic to go along with the lesson, The Fall of Israel, How Falling is Never Final with Our God. A key part of that lesson is the importance of the proper dating of when God gave the children of Israel His laws and the repeated warnings of the prophets before judgment came. [Read more…]
Is it really OK to ask God “why?” We all have questions like these:
The bestselling book The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People totally revolutionized the lives of millions of people and one of the habits he talked about is a great summary of our lesson today. The habit I’m talking about is Habit #2—Begin With the End in Mind
The prophets who preached after the fall of Israel and before Judah was conquered by Babylon preached to challenge people to do this. [Read more…]
