A few years after my first son was born, he wanted to know how we chose his name, so I began reading him the story of Noah's Ark.

You cannot come to Christ unless the Spirit of God brings you. But what if you ignore His warnings? Then you are in the gravest danger, for some day God will no longer be speaking to you. Then it will be too late. Come to Christ while there is still time. Christ, God's greater Ark, stands ready to welcome you to safety today.

When I was a child, I had posters of James Dean in my room. I was a big admirer of his work and was fascinated by him living on the edge. Looking back, my life was kind of the same.

God's revelation to Adam did not instruct Noah how to build the ark.

My dream went all the way back to the beginning. The rain rose into the clouds, and the animals descended the ramp.

And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.
