“O Lord, you awaken us to delight in your praise, for you made us for yourself, and our heart is restless, until it rests in you.”

That’s a quote from Augustine, Bishop of Hippo (A. D. 401) in his book, Confessions. He hits on something basic to being a human being. It involves a relationship with God and a restlessness without him.

That relationship is what the Bible talks about. It’s a subject that reaches to the very core of life. This little booklet traces the broad strokes of the Bible’s message. It addresses the issue of the restlessness, discontentment, loneliness, out-of-whackness, ill-at-easeness, wondering-what-it’s-all-aboutness we all face in life.

Please find a quiet spot and spend some time reading
what follows. You might even offer a prayer, asking God
to help you think through these things. The Bible passages
from which these thoughts are drawn are listed toward the
end of the booklet.

"Thy Kingdom Come" Session 5 - spiritual fruitfulness

"Thy Kingdom Come" Session 4 - spiritual warfare

"Thy Kingdom Come" Session 3 - Revelation

"Thy Kingdom Come" Session 2 - Ecclesiastes

"Thy Kingdom Come" Session 1 - course introduction

Forgiveness is not a period; it is an ellipsis.

What does it mean to say someone is in our thoughts and prayers?

Proverbs of the New Testament?

“What is your best advice for raising children?"

The Judge of all the earth calls you to rise.

While the other three Gospels call this forerunner John “the Baptist” (e.g., Matt. 3:1; Mark 6:14; Luke 7:20), John the gospel writer never does.
