Was there really a man named Adam? If we are formed in the image of God, how are we like Him? How do we differ? Why were we made? What separates us from the animals? Where was the Garden of Eden? How are we supposed to live? So many questions are answered in these first two chapters of Genesis. Listen as Brother Tommy takes us through these verses on the Making of Man.

How did we get here? A question that billions want answered and millions have tried to answer. But God answered it in the first chapter of His Holy Word, the Bible. God said and the Spirit moved. But how and when? How does it relate to
science? What are the Gap and Recent Origin Theories? I find it quite interesting that Brother Tommy’s words from 36 years ago on this subject are still true today. Why? Because, he was speaking from wisdom given by God and Biblical knowledge.

This week I want to start sharing with you a series about the first book of the Bible, Genesis. I have only found the first four in this progression, but they contain great insight, especially this first one. It is the basis for the whole book and contains all the ‘seeds’ of every principle therein. How does it compare to the rest of the Bible? What human author(s) did God use to record this great book? When was it written? Where and how does it point toward Jesus, our Savior?

The last and most welcome lesson of this series – The Place of Blessing. Who doesn’t need a blessing or two? God wants to bless us, but we have to be ready to receive it. But what has He promised us? Peace, Joy, Strength; literally a piece of Heaven on Earth. And how do we prepare to receive it?

Yielding or surrender – it is against our human nature. But remember Pride was the original sin and is at the root of every sin after that. The first yielding we need to do is to yield our life to the Savior, Jesus Christ (see The Gift section on the homepage). After that we are to yield daily to God’s purpose and will for our life. Are you ready to live rather than just exist? A yielded life brings hope,belief, purpose, power, and satisfaction. Sounds great, doesn’t it? Find out how in this lesson about Caleb.

“You have never passed this way before.” Does that scare you or make you more faithful? Where is your trust? Is it in the one who is worthy, Jesus Christ? The Jordan River was an insurmountable obstacle for the Israelites. It represents to us many things: physical death, death to self, even a problem we are facing in our daily lives. This week Brother Tommy tells us how the Israelites lived by faith to get past their obstacles and how we can prioritize our lives to get through ours.

The will of God will not take you where God cannot keep you. Today’s lesson is from Joshua chapter 1 where we find Joshua taking up the cloak of leadership after the death of Moses. Brother Tommy gives us some sound theological assurances for dealing with life’s troubles. Listen for the interesting story of what crisis means in the original Chinese. Another good story this week is the little old lady that wrote “T & P” in her bible. Do you trust God enough to go where He is leading?

Sometimes we feel the need for the Lord’s leadership in our lives more urgently than other times, but we need it daily. We need His leadership in everything from food and shelter to employment and relationships. Brother Tommy teaches how to ask for God’s leadership and how to recognize it (also see a great series on guidance posted earlier in this blog of archived messages). The Lord doesn’t promise an easy life just that He will be there leading us through it.
