The Hamas Attack—as Seen in the Old Testament

October 7…Hamas fired 3000 rockets... invaded Israel…and killed more 1200. Shockingly, that tragedy looks remarkably similar to an attack on Israel that took place back in the Old Testament. This week on The Land and the Book , we’ll take you to a site called Lachish. The biblical account is chilling—but bears a striking resemblance to things we just witnessed.

Captive in Iran

The Woman at the Well

The Life Counsel Bible

Isaiah 9:6 calls Jesus our "wonderful counselor." In the New Testament, the Holy Spirit is also called "the Counselor." And though the Bible offers us theology, history, and poetry, it's also filled with practical counsel. Are we overlooking biblical counsel for our lives? What if we could read our Bibles with more of an eye toward this counseling aspect? We'll discuss it…this week on The Land and the Book.

Misunderstanding and Misusing Revelation

Everyone reads Revelation with an eye toward the date of Christ's return. Clickbait eschatology is a big seller.
