A Lesson in Human Calling
Genesis 11 – The Tower of Babel As humans we are so quick to try and do everything ourselves. No matter how big or how small, we must complete the task independently – we pride ourselves on being able to say, look what I did. Sometimes this is a conscious decision of pride but oftenContinue reading “A Lesson in Human Calling”
How places got their names.
Genesis Chapter 10 – Geneologies part 2 If you’re anything like me, you may have wondered how places got their names. Here in Australia, the names are generally, pretty self-explanatory; you’ve got Boundary Road, Sandy Creek, Brisbane River, Sunshine Coast etc. That is, the name generally describes the place or the person living there. ItContinue reading “How places got their names.”
The tale of three brothers…
Today we’re back to Genesis 9. Genesis Chapter 9 is an interesting chapter because it covers the beautiful and striking symmetry to the first chapters of Genesis, full of blessing and instruction.

Just like Noah offered up sacrifices in chapter 8 in thankfulness and obedience to all God had done, I’d like of offer up a few words of thankfulness and praise for all He is doing here.

A long time…
A musing on Gen 7 & 8, comparing his stay on the ark to our COVID-19 lockdown. I never realised how long Noah spent in the ark with his family and the animals. I always knew it was 40 days and 40 nights, which doesn’t sound so bad. (Until you’re stuck in lockdown for thatContinue reading “A long time…”
Only One
A musing on how far God will go for one person from Gen 6. It is amazing how far God is willing to go for the sake of protecting one righteous person!

Genealogy Musings
A few thoughts on Genesis Chapter 5 1) Adam returned to God and lived out the rest of his days for God offering sacrifices.
