Yvon Prehn's Bible Blog

This blog consists of blogs about the philosophy of Bible805 as a ministry, many of which I also record on the Ministry Miscellany Podcast--though the podcast also has a lot of practical ministry tips, advice, and resources.

This blog is also where I post Bible-related commentary by me, Yvon Prehn, as founder and primary content creator for Bible805.

For additional blogs when written and updates that will inform you about materials to help you know, trust, apply, and teach the Bible, CLICK HERE to sign up for the Bible805 newsletter.

How do you respond to people who think you are doing something wrong, even if you feel like it is perfectly OK to it?
