Speaking from the Cross – Woman, Behold Your Son
In our look at the second thing Jesus said from the cross, we must ask: why did Jesus tell his friend to care for his mother? And how must they have felt standing by their dying friend?

Speaking from the Cross – Father Forgive Them
We can learn the most about people in times of extreme discomfort, and no time is more uncomfortable than dying. Jesus said several things on the cross; what can we learn about his character and priorities from these “last words”?

Philemon – Renewed Relationships
Philemon is the closest thing we have to a first-century email. An add-on to the book of Colossians, what can we learn from Paul’s personal letter to slave-owner Philemon?

Obadiah – A Warning to Rivals
Obadiah is interesting in that it is framed for Edom, rather than Israel. What can we learn from God’s warning and judgment upon Edom, the rival of Israel?

The Ultimate Will of God
The final part of a discussion of God’s will must concern His “ultimate will,” those things that God has determined must happen regardless of what anyone wants or does. What are some of those things?

The Ideal Will of God
As we have delineated God’s will between what God wants and what God has decided to do, we must examine the first of those: God’s will as seen in His commandments and in the life of His son.

Daniel 10-12 – Conversations with Angels
The concluding chapters to the book of Daniel all form a string a conversations between Daniel and several heavenly messengers. What did this angels have to say to Daniel, and what can we learn from their dialogue?

Daniel 9 – A Model of Confession
So much focus is given to the last few verses of Daniel 9, the “Seventy Weeks.” However, the first part of the chapter is far more applicable to the modern Christian, and in fact, the meaning of the seventy weeks is wrapped up in the prayer of Daniel.
