Understanding Scripture correctly (II)
BY: Denis Haack
You are attending a small group Bible study and someone comments, “Jesus came into a broken, fallen world. The problem in this case is hunger, the need to eat, and as the Redeemer he solves the problem with a special supply of food. Won’t it be great in heaven when we won’t need food any more?” How do you respond?

The events transpiring around the world make it hard, sometimes, to feel certain that the details of ordinary life have much meaning in the cosmic scheme of things. Airplanes fall out of the sky into the ocean, wars that have raged for decades blunder on, and lovely friends find themselves struggling with loneliness or job loss or a job so mind-numbingly boring as to seem unjust. In such a reality, listening carefully and discussing thoughtfully are not luxuries but necessities. This web site is one way we attempt to nourish such conversation.
