As you will hear in this PODCAST, I am speaking this week at a place near and dear to my sizable soul. Holy Ground. A place where God has sovereignly chosen to touch the earth.
It’s called Hartland Christian Camp. And I will be spending my week with 250 precious Junior High/Middle School students.
But I have not left you podcast-less. So take this message to heart, look up, wait eagerly, anticipate enthusiastically.
Thank you for listening, and for sharing this message!!!

Well, it isn’t pretty. But this PODCAST is enormously encouraging.
Recorded in the privacy of my home (as I hunker down under a mandatory “shelter in place” order), as you will hear, we are BACK IN THE BOOK OF ACTS!!! (Three cheers for that!)
Cumbersome as it may be to record this without the benefit of a “live” audience, I’ll do my best to deliver you brand new, delightfully fresh, intensively insightful content each week as we work our way ever so slowly but surely through Paul in High Definition.
Enjoy!!!

As you are about to hear in this PODCAST, Paul in 1 Corinthians 15 referenced what he called the single most important event of human history.
And it all centers upon that one-telling-three-word-phrase, “the third day.”
Quite a statement that: “I passed on to you what was most important.”
Most: πρῶτος, a superlative in Greek. A word that means the best, the chief, the first and foremost of all. Meaning that Paul went over and above to point out in the most emphatic way possible that nothing that he could ever, or would ever write would eclipse this one statement in its importance:
“I passed on to you the best—the chief, the first and foremost in importance—fact of all time: Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said.”
A most-important, and most-specific chronology — not to be overlooked.
In this case, the chronology is the story.
