Two for One

This Sunday, we spent time talking about Cain and his family. It's interesting how the Bible records these historical markers for us to see how society has changed (or not changed), and to see how actions have far-reaching consequences.

Also, I'm going to post the audio of the Ladies Tea from yesterday here at the church. The speaker, a young lady who has a tremendous heart for missions, tells about her life, and I'll let her share the details.

Consequence

Describing the consequences passed on to Adam and Eve in Genesis 3 is a challenge. The passage itself is straight forward, but there is so much involved, it's hard to know what to include and what to leave out. Sin is so embedded in us that teasing out the nuances, let alone the big details, leaves me pretty frustrated.

So, I'm including the links to the two papers that I mentioned. I hope that people will read them, and I hope it will spark some discussion. More than that, I hope it will prompt changes in our lives by the Holy Spirit.
