HUMAN ORIGINS

by tschroder100@gmail.com | Feb 20, 2026 | Atheism, Bible, God, Inspiration, Jesus, Ministry, Morality, Reading, Science, Suffering, The World, Witness

In my book, JOHN STOTT: A Summary of his Teaching, I condense my mentor’s conclusions on the vexed question of human origins as written in Genesis. How to reconcile the historicity of Adam and Eve with the scientific theory of evolution? This is a subject of much...

SELF-EXAMINATION

by tschroder100@gmail.com | Feb 17, 2026 | Faith, God, Ministry, Morality, Prayer, Suffering, The World, Witness, Worship

INSPIRATIONAL READING FOR THE NEW YEAR

by tschroder100@gmail.com | Dec 27, 2025 | Aging, Bible, Faith, God, Inspiration, Jesus, Ministry, Morality, Prayer, Reading, Witness, Worship
