God Sightings Week 12, Mar. 21st – 27th.

Old Testament: Numbers 30:1 – Deut. 6:25   There is an interesting statement made by God in Deut. 2:9, “the LORD said to me: ‘Do not harass Moab or engage them in battle, for I will not give you any of its land as a possession,

God Sightings Week 10, Mar. 7th – 13th

Old Testament – Numbers 8:1 – 20:29   In Num. 9 we have, what I believe to be, a show of grace. Throughout history, starting not long after the apostles had died, the church became mostly Gentile, and as a result, extremely racist.

God Sightings Week 8, Feb. 22nd – 28th. 2010

Old Testament: Lev. 13:1 – 23:44   Even though reading through the ritual cleansings can seem a little long and dry; there are some interesting observations. One of my favorites has always been chapter 14 of Leviticus.

God Sightings – Week 7: February 15-21, 2010

From Doug: Old Testament In our readings this week we see the completion and dedication of the Tabernacle.  Once again we see the incredible detail in God’s directions to Moses.  This is also seen in the endless passages concerning the sacrificial system.  I don’t know about you, but it will be pretty difficult not to [...]

God Sightings: Week 6, Feb 1st – 7th

From Adam: Week 6, Feb 1st – 7th Exodus 13:17-27:21 Notice how in 13:19 we find Moses taking the bones of Joseph with him to the land of Canaan. They had been under oath to do so. What’s so big about that? Because it was a great demonstration of faith in what God had promised [...]

God Sightings – Week 4, Jan 25th – Jan 31st

Genesis 50:1 – Exodus 13:16 What never ceases to amaze me about the story of Joseph, which in concluded in the last chapter in Genesis, is the favor God supplied him with a pagan king! This wasn’t someone that knew Jehovah. This was a man, who, within the context of his culture and time was [...]

God Sightings: Week 3 – January 18-24

Genesis 37:1-49:33/Matthew 12:22-16:12/Psalms 16:1-20:9/Proverbs 3:27-4:27 From Doug General Thoughts:  You might want to have along with you a Study Bible of some sorts so you have access to some commentary and maps to help you better understand what is going on.  If you need suggestions let us know.  As you can imagine, different Study Bibles [...]

God Sightings Week 2. Jan 11th – 17th

From Adam: Genesis 26:17 – 36:43 Did you notice that in Gen. 24:57, concerning whether or not Rebecca was truly going to leave and marry Isaac, they left the final say up to her (a woman)? As if being a parent didn’t bring enough weight with it; we see the sins of the father being [...]

God Sightings: Week 1 – January 4-10

I plan to do this at the beginning of every week instead of the middle but our son and his wife flew in yesterday and we have been preoccupied. The purpose of this is to give you some things to think about as you go through your One Year Bible on your own or to [...]

God Sightings: pre-Week 1 – January 1 and 2

Here we go!  As you may know part of this experience called “God Sightings” is that we learn to experience God every day – discovering God at work in our lives and the lives of others – seeing God in fresh new ways. As we begin our God Sightings experience we look at the beginning [...]
