WHY GOD’S CREATION IS WORTH GETTING OUTSIDE FOR

It’s winter. The fear of cold can cause us to surround ourselves with man-made comforts. We shudder as the fresh air hits our face, when we roll down the window to accept our coffee at the drive-through.

We dread snowfall because it means we’ll have to spend extended time in the elements. We’ll be clearing the snow off of the driveway not once, but twice because of the snow-plow. Going outside for any other reason seems unthinkable.

How Hobbies and Recreation Can Help You Invest In Your Deepest Relationships

Understanding How the Bible and the Brain Are Connected

The Prefrontal Cortex is where we make decisions to take action on thought. The Prefrontal Cortex handles one’s behaviour. This brings greater understanding into Deut. 6:4-8, “These commandments that I give you today…bind them on your foreheads.” Perhaps the God who designed our brains, was leading Moses to be as specific as possible, in exactly where we should store His commandments?
