Episode Synopsis

Send us a textHello, and thanks for joining us! We have a guest preacher today, Seminarian Phil Valdez. In his sermon on this section of Genesis, we see how Noah demonstrates the fact that he knows (and we can be confident as well) that God keeps his promises! We are born sinful, and enemies of God. But we are deemed God's children. He didn't HAVE to rescue us from sin and hell, but he did, with the death and resurrection of his son, Jesus Christ!God bless you this week and always.

And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done.22 “As long as the earth endures,seedtime and harvest,cold and heat,summer and winter,day and nightwill never cease.”
