Welcome to Conversations at the Well

In Mark 6:31 Jesus gave an invitation to His friends. He said, "Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place..." My friend, I believe Jesus issues this same invitation to us today. Take off your shoes of busyness, take a deep breath and sit awhile at the well of His Word. It never runs dry and it is always available. Come. Come away by yourself to a quiet place...He is waiting there for you.

FAITH THROUGH THE FLOOD



…on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. And rain fell… Genesis 7:11-12

Have you ever experienced a flood? When we hear the word “flood” most of us think of the devastation left by hurricane Katrina. But hurricane Katrina was a puddle compared to what the world experienced in Noah’s day. Can you even imagine such a flood? Not a speck of ground anywhere was visible. Not a treetop. Even the highest mountain peaks were submerged. But Noah’s journey of faith began long before the first raindrops fell.

My dear friend, are you caught in a deluge in life? Is everything you hold dear submerged and out of sight and out of reach? Are you being swept away by floodwaters of doubt, fear and uncertainty? Do you feel adrift? Perhaps God has asked you to do something that just doesn’t make any sense. Is God there? Is He with you in the flood? And what about when the floodwaters recede, what’s next?

Join me Monday, April 12th for Conversations at the Well as we dive into God’s Word together and look at “Faith Through the Flood” – a look at Noah’s story. I will be sharing a story I wrote about the flood as it may have looked through the eyes and heart of Noah’s wife. This is going to be an exciting voyage so be sure and bring your provisions:

May the Lord bless you,
