Excellent Beginnings

Is there Intelligent Design in our universe? Bible teacher, Dr. John R Hargrove takes you back in time to the story of Creation and a study of the earliest men in the Book of Genesis. Since there is a Grand Design, there must be a Grand Designer. Since Creation has taken place, there is obviously a Creator. There is indeed. He is God.

In the Bible, we will see that God does not speak verbally to everyone, but chooses specific people to talk to, and asks them to go as prophets for him. Those were usually men of great faith. We soon learn that the Bible is not a story of great men, but of a great God. The Lord still communicates with us today. In this study, we will assume the Creation story is the true one. If you are not sure about that, we invite you to settle down and read what God has to say about it.

This is an excellent resource for anyone who would like a better understanding of the Christian Bible.
Mr. Hargrove helps simplify things by sharing his own interpretation. He gives us direct quotes and then explains them in his own, easier to understand, words. He also forces us to take the knowledge he has shared and asks us to look within for answers. ---He doesn't preach he makes you think.--- Oddly enough, there is no hate or judgment to be found in these pages. He mainly focuses on Gods love and forgiveness. I'm looking forward to the next book.
