“A Nation Divided”: Isaiah, Prophet to Judah
Ever since Genesis 3:15, God’s people had been waiting for the Rescuer to come. Every generation wondered if theirs would be the one to experience His arrival.

I have moved around quite a bit in my life—perhaps more than I would have wanted. I also travel often for my job, meaning I am always adjusting to new places. If you have moved or travel much, you know what it take to settle into a new place and get your bearings. You need …

There is an old preaching joke that you likely have heard: A man made his way onto his roof to escape rising flood waters. A short time later, a man in a row boat called out to him if he needed rescue. “No, I have been praying to God for rescue. He will rescue me.” …

I’m an introvert. That doesn’t mean I don’t like people; that means I don’t like being around people all the time. Being around people, especially when I don’t know them well, can drain me.
