Tracing the Genealogy of Jesus
from R.C. Sproul Dec 20, 2009 Category: R.C. Sproul
At first glance, the beginning of Matthew is a less-than-exciting literary starting point of the New Testament. It is a list of “begats” tracing Jesus’ lineage back to Abraham.

Among other things, the genealogical tables of the New Testament place the gospel squarely on the plane of history. Jesus was born “in the fullness of time”—His ministry is defined and interpreted against the background of Old Testament history. Keep Reading -

Anchoring Your Soul
from R.C. Sproul Dec 13, 2009 Category: R.C. Sproul

When inexplicable disasters occur, we must say with Luther, “Let God be God.” Keep Reading -

True Gratitude
from Karisa Schlehr Nov 26, 2009 Category: R.C. Sproul
One of the grand traditions of America is our tradition of taking one day out of the year and setting it apart as a special holiday--a holy day--a day to commemorate the benevolent providence of God. It was originally called Thanksgiving. The idea of Thanksgiving day has its roots in our own history, in the bitter struggle that the original founding fathers of this country had with the elements.
