Standing in the Pulpit

February 19, 2018 by Joshua Jenkins Leave a Comment

I am of the conviction that we should, as much as we can, have reasons for everything we do as a church.

Favor with God

February 18, 2018 by Joshua Jenkins Leave a Comment

In Genesis 34 there is a young man named Shechem who rapes Jacob’s daughter, Dinah. It is a terrible thing. Strangely, Shechem falls in love with Dinah, the girl he most certainly did not love while he was taking advantage of her. In love as he is, Shechem goes to Jacob to seek Dinah’s hand […]

The Divine Wrestler

February 8, 2018 by Joshua Jenkins Leave a Comment

The latter portion of Genesis 32 contains the event of Jacob wrestling with God. It is a Sunday school story those of us who grew up in church know, but not one we understand. While it is what we might call a “cool” story it often leaves us a bit puzzled. I think one of […]
