The Bible is very upfront about the dark side of human nature, but we should not mistake this honesty with endorsement. We always have decisions to make and God has told us over and over again to pray for guidance and live according to His morality. When we do, He gives us the ability to do the right things the right way. When we don’t, we are often caught in situations that are the consequences of our own making. We must seek God and be restored through repentance and prayer, asking for wisdom to navigate this life, and every situation we find ourselves in. The story we encounter today is about the daughter-in-law of Judah who is treated poorly by him. After the early death of her husband, Judah’s son, she was promised in marriage to Judah’s other son so that a child could be born to carry on her past-husband’s family inheritance. Instead, Judah pushed her aside with empty promises, but Tamar would not be left destitute.
We are a family-run international ministry with television, print and online programs designed to guide you through the Bible in one year.
From social issues and apologetics to theology, history and science, our mission is to educate, edify and encourage the believer to actively engage with God’s Word in all ways.

Three indicators of God’s power were in the path of Moses as he returned to Egypt. First there were the miracles that God showed him, represented by the rod that Moses carried. Then there was the personal display of God’s power which Moses didn’t seem to have recognized, but his wife Zipporah did...
