When we see the atrocities being committed by terrorists in the middle east, and mass shootings here in America, do you ever wonder why mankind is so sinful? Where did this sin problem originate? Even committed Christians find themselves asking that question. Well, the problems of this world can be traced back to Genesis three, where sin entered the world.

Today on the program, pastor Lloyd Pulley continues his new series in Genesis chapters one through eleven, titled "Foundations". We will start a look at chapter three today - and it's one of the most significant chapters in the entire word of God. When Eve was tempted by satan, and then Adam sinned, it spelled the end of perfection in the Garden of Eden, and the beginning of the problem that continues to plague mankind to this day - sin.

Thanks for joining us today as we continue pastor Lloyd's series in Genesis chapters one through eleven. We're finishing up chapter two today, and pastor Lloyd will have some very frank and challenging things to say about marriage.

Today on Bridging the Gap, we'll continue pastor Lloyd Pulley's series in Genesis, titled "Foundations". Marriage was one of the first things God made after He created Adam and Eve, so anyone who thinks marriage is not relevant today is absolutely wrong. God desires that we make our marriages as complete as we can, and He wants to be at the very center of that relationship.

Pastor Lloyd and his wife Karen have been married for for decades, but Lloyd will tell you that they never stop learning new ways to improve their relationship. Marriage is an ongoing project - and God intended it that way! Today we'll continue looking at God's blueprint for marriage, as we study Genesis chapter two, verses twenty-four and twenty-five.

Today's message will focus on one of God's greatest inventions - marriage. God designed marriage as a reflection of His own relationship with us in many ways. When you think about it that way, it makes marriage seem like quite a challenge! It IS!!!! But that doesn't mean we should shy away from making our marriages everything God intended them to be. We're using Genesis chapter two as our reference point today.

Last time, pastor Lloyd Pulley shared from Genesis two, and how God created the first man and woman, Adam and Eve. Today, we will continue looking at that creation. Men and women are different, to be sure, but why are they different, and where do those differences begin and end? Well, God knew what He was doing, so let's pay close attention to today's look at the creation of man and woman.

Today on the program we'll consider something that most of us would readily agree with - men and women are different. Very different! Seems like something so obvious it doesn't need to be discussed, but let's consider this - why did God make men and women the way He made them? The answer to that question illustrates what a wonderful and thoughtful God we worship.

Last time, we begin a special message Lloyd shared concerning the current situation in the middle east and how it fits into biblical prophecy. There is much confusion concerning exactly what's going on, and who is to blame, and it is certainly troubling to see so many people taking the side of terrorists, but Lloyd will steer us toward what God's word has to say, and where ultimately all of this fits into what God's word says will take place in there end times. Join us now for the second half of a message pastor Lloyd has titled, "Falling Apart or Falling in Place"?

In this message, pastor Lloyd is going to discuss the current situation in the middle east, and how Israel's war against hamas fits into biblical prophecy. There is a lot of misinformation being shared about what is actually going on, and Lloyd will share some historical facts and biblical prophecy to explain exactly where it all fits into the end times we are living in. We'll begin in First Timothy chapter four.
