Was It Fair That Jesus Was Crucified?

     Having been given the opportunity to share during an adult Bible study, I chose to share from a book I was just finishing entitled Exquisite Agony : Healing for Christians who have been hurt by other Christians written by Gene Edwards. Mr. Edwards takes us through a insightful approach to the Crucifixion, scene by scene. We read Luke 23: 26-43 - the familiar Scriptures of Christ's crucifixion. Then I began to read a few excerpts from Exquisite Agony.

Jumping Ship to Calm Your Storm

This past Sunday my son was ill, and as moms always do, I stayed home with him, missing morning worship. Realizing my soon-to-be 11 year old would want to "veg" in front of the wii station, I quickly made plans for us to spend time reading God's Word. I decided we would read the book of "Jonah", thinking he would be familiar with the story, which he was to some extent. Thank you God for Sunday school! He reassured me that he knew all about Jonah, and proceded to tell me that there wasn't a book of "Jonah" in the Bible.
