Why did Harriet Beecher Stowe write “Uncle Tom’s Cabin”?
Why did Harper Lee write “To Kill a Mockingbird”?
What about Tolstoy’s “War and Peace”?
Why are books written?
The answer to that question is a tremendous first step in understanding the message.
Today, on the podcast, we are asking the question, “Why was the book of Genesis written? What is the intent behind this first book of the Bible?”

For the record: Hate is not a crime. Hate often leads to crimes but emotion is not a crime. Restricting freedom of thought, opinion, and speech is a crime. If hate is a crime, we are all criminals because we have all hated someone at some time. Many of those decrying "hate" actually hate those they accuse.

Suppressing the truth is an act of violence against understanding and wisdom.
Here is something to make St. Patrick's Day meaningful.

Missionaries in Myanmar: PART 1
“Dear loving Brethren,
I am writing this Report with a broken and trembling heart.My eye is filled with sadness and tears of hurt. First of all I want to beg you to pray for our safety and protection.
The military has taken control and is killing civilians. Everyday we needed to collect dead bodies on the road with tears and pains.Banks are being shut down, and it isn’t easy to get online.
Everywhere is filled with smoke and fire as factories are burned and destroyed.Thousands of people don’t have work,food,and a place to stay now.Almost all of our church members ran back to their village. There is neither market nor a shop where we can buy food because every road is blocked.How long will we last if it continues like this!?
Just a while ago, the soldiers’ truck came and stopped near our house. We were terrified; they captured six people who were having tea in the shop. God is my only Hope.

Missionaries in Myanmar: Part 2
All missionaries are suffering the misery of this greatly. My faithful missionary friend has a wife who is about to give birth,and there is no hospital opened.He said to me they would deliver the baby themselves in their small house by trusting God.
I have two small little girls, one is two years, and another is six months; I don’t care if I don’t have food to eat, but I think much for them and their safety. May you continue to uphold us in your prayer for our safety, provision, and protection.Soldiers are catching people from every house, and now they are near to us. Please pray for us.”
At the heart of all corruption is selfishness, greed, dishonesty, lust, Pride, indulgence, anger, vengeance, jealousy, and on and on. How do we fix it? We start with personal, complete repentance. Jesus is Lord and He awaits our homecoming.
It is called "the NATIONAL Guard," not the congressional guard.
They have taken an oath to protect the CONSTITUTION, not Washington D.C.
Oh yes, they should protect those ELECTED officials who represent the government OF THE PEOPLE, but how many of those do we have in Washington? Five?
Georgians, please share with your neighbors and join the recall.
"The wall around Washington, D.C. will show you that very clearly. We are simply now being controlled by highly-organized crime, in bed with the human trafficking cartels."
This is an important film. This issue is huge!
If you know someone in Arizona, please share this. WE need to pray without question but we need to act too! nad buy MY PILLOW! :)

Guys I can't give any details and I will not be posting this information on any other forum, but this week is really important to us at BTJ. we have Chinese pastors that have traveled to be together for the first time since the pandemic started last year. It is amazing to be with them and in prayer with them, but we need to plan the best way to support the church in China for this year. We do not want our own ideas, agendas, and thoughts to pollute what God has for us. Please pray for the leading and the guiding of the Holy Spirit during this time.
How old is the earth? Does it matter beyond the scientific ramifications? Does what someone believes about the age of the earth threaten your faith? John Immel, Karl Gessler, and John Van Waggoner continue the conversation on Genesis, Geology, and Theology in this week's podcast.

Citizens everywhere do not need government checks. We need freedom. Stop selling your freedom for a bowl of soup.
Don’t wait for someone else to do it. When you perceive the need, do what is in your power to meet it.
Do your children and grandchildren know that they shouldn't trust the government school's teachings?
In fact, the Dept. of "education" needs to be shut down entirely. Read a book, save a life.
Until I am living in the middle of a full-fledged Christian revival in the USA, I will not be satisfied.
