Most people would skip Numbers 19 to get to the part where Moses lost it with God’s people and struck the rock. But while there’s nothing to immediately grab your attention, two words in verse 17 contain the Gospel in a nutshell. The course of action for cleansing oneself from defilement is summarized and while [...]

Over the past few weeks while in Calcutta, India, I’ve noticed how often the poor are mentioned throughout Scripture. It’s hard not to notice poverty when you’re surrounded by it. But back in Toronto, it’s easy to ignore the poor and my responsibility to care for them, help them and minister to their needs. Also [...]

From the moment of their first challenge in the desert, the Hebrew people begin to doubt and question Moses’ authority. Actually, it starts even before that when Moses presents himself to the people as their deliverer.

Then, when God parted the Red Sea and destroyed their enemies, it was Miriam who [...]

Toward the end of Numbers 11, Moses has had his little rant and feels good about his job again, especially after recruiting seventy elders to share the workload. This means no more late dinners and working til the wee hours for Moses. The seventy men share more than just the responsibility of leadership — they [...]
