The Pastor's Place

Began the God Sightings One Year Bible* readings again today.  Amazed again at reading the genealogy in Matthew...  With a few background checks, you will discover that there are some very "colorful" characters listed throughout the 42 generations between Abraham and Jesus. And in spite of some flawed individuals and some very sordid and scandalous situations, God's plans prevail. What can we learn from this listing and how could it apply to our lives today?   I can think of at least three applications (I've already given you one), but I'm curious about your observations as you read this passage.

 *Yesterday, Gina & I celebrated reading through the Bible in 2010.  We used the One Year Bible plan which includes daily reading from passages in the Old Testament, New Testament, Psalms & Proverbs.  I highly recommend SOME kind of reading plan, so that you can systematically read and reflect on God's Word every day!  You can purchase a number of different kinds of One Year Bibles in several different formats and translations. 

I use the free online God Sightings website.  The daily readings can be sent to you via email, or you can go online to read.  If you'd like to join the Calvary group, just create a log in and sign up.  Through the website you can post comments or questions (only people in our group can read), take notes (which will be private) or do further study through the online study Bible and resources that are available for free.  I'd love to hear your thoughts or questions, on daily readings, so please join us.  And you never know - what speaks to you may bring great encouragement to others!
