Sojourning Under the Sun: Sabbath Rivalry (Genesis 4)

Adam and Eve are out of the Garden of Eden, and they are banished from the Garden.  They will never enter this paradise again nor will they taste any of the fruit that was in this original sanctuary.  How do they fare on the other side of Eden?  How will human history progress or will it just digress?

Overseeing Christ’s Church (1 Timothy 3:1-7)

The leaders of the church should desire to rule their lives and the church by the Lord’s standard.  If the Lord’s standard is perfection then how can we be qualified to lead if we are struggling sinners?  If Timothy is serving a church that has struggles then how can Timothy ordain leaders?  What qualifications should he look for in a leader?  How do we know if we should aspire to hold leadership in a church?
