The Epic Life - Bob Hallman

A Heart of Thanks | Psalm 103:1-5 | Happy Thanksgiving

"We can learn something from David especially as we approach Thanksgiving because my guess is that most of us here have things that are kind of diminishing our gratitude in life. The things that diminish our gratitude, our worries and anxieties, and concerns and the wrong focus, those things can strip us of appreciation for what has happened and what is in our lives and what God has blessed us with."

Matthew 5: 17-30 Corrections & Clarifications, Part 1

Like the errant newspapers of today, the religious leaders in Israel had misinterpreted the facts about the true meaning of the Law and had disseminated their misinformation among their fellow Jews for centuries. 
Quote: W. C. Fields; comedian, film actor, and known agnostic
While on his deathbed, he was seen thumbing through a Bible.  Amazed, a close friend asked what he was doing.  Fields replied, “I’m looking for a loophole!”
In order to justify themselves before God, these Pharisees/Teachers had become experts at finding loopholes in the Law to excuse their utter failure to abide by its directives.
In contrast, Jesus confronts their false religious system by bringing a powerful “Correction and Clarification” to the true standard and intent of the OT Law.

Matthew 5:1-16, Blessings Of The Kingdom

Every man, woman and child have an innate desire to experience happiness!
And if there were ever a people who should be happy, it’s Americans! But a recent study revealed that only 20 percent of Americans are happy.
Why?
Because the myth of our day is that happiness can be achieved by satisfying our personal desires, emotional comforts and bodily appetites.

Genesis 7: Lessons from The Flood

Did the Flood really occur?Was it universal or only regional?Was there really an ark, and was it large enough to hold all the animals? Where did all the water come from? These questions, and many others, are answered for us in Genesis 7.
There are more than 200 cultures which have their own account of the flood including New Guinea, North America, Brazil, Peru, Africa, Greenland, India, China, Egypt, Greece, Persia, Australia, Wales, Eastern Europe, Siberia, and Lithuania.
95%-speak of a universal flood88%-speak of a favored family66%-say it was because of the wickedness of man73%-speak of animals being saved70%-speak of a boat that saved the family57%-say that survivors landed on a high mountain
Many of the accounts also specifically mention birds being sent out, a rainbow, and eight persons being saved.  You may be surprised to discover that there is an ancient Hawaiian flood story:  “Long after the death of Kuniuhonna, the first man, the world became a wicked, terrible place to live. There was only one good man left; his name was Nu’u. He made a great canoe with a house on it and filled it with animals. The waters came up over all the earth and killed all the people. Only Nu’u and his family were saved.

Genesis Chapter 6: God’s Impending Judgement

Here in chapter 6 we have the account of God’s impending judgment on a corrupt and rebellious world. Interestingly, the Lord compared the moral and spiritual climate of Noah’s day to the conditions immediately preceding the return of Jesus Christ.
Luke 17:26-27 “Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man--exploding population (6:1), sexual perversion (6:2), demonic activity (6:2), constant evil in the heart of man (6:5), and widespread corruption and violence (6:11)

Genesis Chapter 5: A Father’s Legacy

Many parents like to quote Prov 22:6: “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not turn from it.” But to bring up a child in the way he should go–you must travel that way yourself.
To bring up a child the way they should go, you have to go that way first! 
“It’s much easier to become a father than to be one.”
“There are little eyes upon you, and they are watching night and day; There are little ears that quickly take in every word you say; There are little hands all eager to do everything you do, and a little boy who’s dreaming of the day he’ll be like you. You’re the little fellow’s idol, you’re the wisest of the wise, in his little mind about you, no suspicions ever rise; He believes in you devoutly, holds that all you say and do, He will say and do in your way when he’s grown up to be like you. There’s a wide-eyed little fellow who believes you’re always right, and his ears are always open, and he watches day and night; You are setting an example every day in all you do, For the little boy who’s waiting to grow up to be like you.” (Dhiman, Avleek. “Little Eyes”.)
