The Wisdom of God and the Folly of Man

Brandon Fisher

In Joshua 8-9 we find two stories that in some sense contrast with each other. They give us a picture both of what it means to be wise and what it means to be foolish. We live in a day and age that is full of knowledge and yet many times is lacking in wisdom. Wisdom and folly perhaps not even words we us in our vocabulary anymore. And yet these are two words that are at the core of what it means to be human as God designed us to be and to live well in the world that He has created. What does wisdom look like and how do we grow in wisdom? What does folly look like and how can we easily fall into foolishness in our lives? These are questions that Joshua 8-9 helps us to answer so that might know, trust, and imitate the very God who is Wisdom.

Gender and the Glory of God

Brandon Fisher

What does it mean to be male and female? Are there other genders besides these two? Where do we look to determine what gender a person is? There may be no greater hot-button topic in our day then gender. Strong feelings and opinions can quickly devolve into arguments, misunderstandings, and name-calling. We need God’s Word to cut through the noise to be able to understand not only his design for gender, but also the goodness and beauty of his design. We face challenges not only in how we speak to and defend the truth of God’s Word in relation to gender, but also in how we seek to personally live out what it means to be male and female in the midst of our homes, churches, and culture. While the specific situation Paul was addressing in 1 Corinthians 11 may not still apply in our day, the biblical grounding and principles for what he is saying speak directly into this challenging area in our day to help us live as male or female for the glory of God and the good of the world.

Pause to Remember

Kyle Kauffman

We have a tendency to view rest with either suspicion or as optional add-on to our lives. We think, “If I rest, won’t I miss out on something important in my life, or even worse, become lazy.” Or we think, “Rest is a good thing, but I just don’t have time to rest. Maybe if I get everything done, I’ll rest. Or maybe in another stag of life, I’ll be able to rest. But for now, there is no time to rest.” But from the start for the world, God gave people rest, commanded people to rest, and has connected rest with our faith in him. While the Sabbath looks different for us then it did for the Israelites, the principle remains the same. Rest is not bad, it is good. Rest is not optional, it is necessary. Rest provides the space for us to remember and worship the God who created and sustains everyone and everything. We are invited and commanded to pause and rest so that we might have time to wonder at God, the world he’s made, and the life he’s given to us.

The Joy of Being a Child

Kyle Kauffman

One of the greatest privileges of being a Christian is to be adopted by God. Our adoption into God’s family should be a continual source of joy for us. God has made you his child forever. Which means that we have all the rights, privileges, and responsibilities of belonging to God’s family. We can find peace in knowing God is our Father. We can find value in knowing we are his children. We can look with confidence to our future because of what we will be. And we can live with a new purpose right now because of our belonging to God’s family.
