Introduction

This is the "Genesis" of our blogging career. Leah and I have been talking about doing a blog for a while now. But with life being, well...life, we have not had time to start it up until now. We also needed an idea, a theme of sorts. We could have just started some random blog like most people do. You know, the ones where they go on and on about me, myself and I. But we wanted to be "different", to make an "impact" with our writing. It's more than just the random thoughts in our brains. It's what God is speaking to us through His Word, but more simple than that - what God wants everyone to know. That is the way He wrote the Bible; anyone can read it and get the point. So we are looking for the point.

We are gonna start with the Epistles of the Apostle Paul. Paul is trying to communicate "the point" of the Gospel. Why did Jesus come? What did He do? What does that mean for us? Why is it so important for everyone to know?

We want this to be more than just our ramblings about the things we are reading. For one, we want to read commentaries and what other people have written/spoken on the subject. Secondly, we want this to be a conversation. We don't have all the answers, but then neither do you. We want to take the Bible at face value. We're not trying to be culturally relevant. We want truth! So comment, but stick to the point :)

We believe in the three rules of proper Bible reading and teaching: CONTEXT, CONTEXT, CONTEXT. We'll start with the text, and then use Scripture to interpret. Easy, right?

We plan to start tomorrow with the first chapter of the book of Romans. Join us in our journey...if you dare! :-P
