Jesus designed the Lord's prayer to reveal His desire to give us more fully, graciously, and suitably the very things we most want but seek elsewhere.

Was Jonah Swallowed By a Fish Or A Whale?
The Bible says, “fish”. Popular culture says, “whale”. I think this may be a rare instance when popular culture got it right. The problem occurs when we attempt to apply modern taxonomical nomenclature to sea creatures of Jonah’s time. The … Continue reading
