“The View from Mount Calvary”
As I read through the Scriptures, I am struck by how often the cross was pre-figured in the Old Testament, and how often the results it accomplished are presented in the New Testament. While I have preached on this subject in “bits and pieces” over the years, it was when I discovered The View from [...]
“Living the Questions in John”
I have just finished a sermon series on “The Questions of Jesus.” In the clearance section of my local Mardel’s bookstore, I found the book Living the Questions in John, a discussion guide published by Navpress. Each of the ten chapters focuses on one of the questions Jesus asks, or is asked, in the Gospel [...]

Today the most popular multimedia device for teaching and preaching is the video projector. In my role as technology guy for the Sunset International Bible Institute, I am [...]

Still a site in its beginning stages, it seems that only one Bible version, one commentary, and one dictionary are “live” for now, but it is enough [...]
E-Sword Updates Worth Noting
Our favorite Bible study software continues to be upgraded. The current version of e-Sword is at 7.9.8. This update adds a few new features and includes better support for Windows Vista. One problem I had after upgrading from my 7.7.7 version was my NASB Bible module had to be downloaded and installed again. More exciting [...]
Free Clipart from Microsoft
No, this is not one of those “Bill Gates (Microsoft founder and one of the world’s richest men) is giving away $1,000 to everyone who forwards this e-mail” kind of thing. Instead, I want to let you know about a valuable, free resource available from Microsoft for users of their Microsoft Office line of products [...]
