Robert denys the layup! And then almost stops the 3-pointer as well! What a 5th-grader!

Robert Denys

to be an atheist who is thankful. Who would you thank? That from a testimony from Dr. Carl Hodges. Thank God He is indeed real.

Known as the ‘Step Pyramid’, it was built more than 4,000 years ago for a Pharoah named Djoser. Interestingly, it was built right about the time of the flood. Archbishop Usher’s timeline says the flood came in 2348 B.C. The Septuagint says it came in 3246 B.C. Egyptian tradition dates Djoser’s pyramid at 2600 B.C. It certainly could have been built within a few hundred years after the flood. If I were a non-believer, it would be eerily spooky that there are no man made structures existing that were built before the the fountains of the deep were opened up and the waters covered the earth.

I took this picture on May 23, 2007. It’s a bit large, but the detail in the photo is worth it.

“Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things,
be diligent that ye may be found of him
in peace, without spot, and blameless.”

Second Peter 3:14

“What does the man of faith really see today when for a moment he resolutely climbs the mountain, and looks from the standpoint of his living fellowship with God?

. . . all the faithful see Him, and they see Him still in Himself as Love. God is Love. That fact has been forever made sure in human history by the Cross of Christ. That God is love never can be denied by all such souls as have really seen that Cross and have really come into fellowship with it in their own lives, and know its matchless power in the lives of other men. Therefore we know today that we must interpret circumstances by God, and not God by circumstances. The peril of the hour is that men and women of faith may be trying to account for God by the circumstances of affliction. It cannot be done. That is not the true outlook. The true method is that of interpreting the circumstances by the fact of God. Under the shadow of the Cross of the world’s Redeemer, in the presence of all that Cross has wrought in personal life and in history, we are compelled to look again at this dark hour from the standpoint of the abiding, unchanging certainty concerning God, that He is the God of love. When we begin to do that we find that we see God not only in Himself, but in His activity.”

“And the things that thou hast heard of me
among many witnesses,
the same commit thou to faithful men,
who shall be able to teach others also.”

- 2 Timothy 2:2

Listen to a 90 second preview of what is perhaps Robert’s favorite song here. There is a lot of character in Ron Hamilton’s music, and it strikes a chord with many children. I have a tape of my daughter singing “I Want to Marry Daddy” with him when she was in first grade. Perhaps someday I’ll post it. It struck all my chords.
