What is the version of the Bible that built our great nation, America? Many are shocked to find out that, indeed, it was not the King James Version—but, rather, the Geneva Bible!
The Geneva Bible is the most influential book in the history of Western Civilization—of which you may never have heard.
“Since we have no reason or experience with uncaused things in our universe, it is reasonable to conclude that something besides the universe caused the universe to exist.” - David de Bruyn
“On this classic ID The Future out of the archive, Dr. Jonathan McLatchie gives us a beginner’s guide to Bayesian thinking and teaches us how it can be used to build a strong cumulative case for intelligent design, as well as how we can use it in our everyday lives.” - ID the Future
“Allison is firmly convinced that the majority of the Christian tradition has been in serious error on this point.

In the first book of Psalms (Pss 1–41), have you ever noticed the change in tone within the laments and songs of confidence, between the two halves of the book? In this article, I’d like to propose that there is a metanarrative lesson being taught in Book I which remains pertinent today for leaders of families and churches.
