“The message of the Bible is never – you can do it if you try hard enough. God never says to us, “You can do whatever you set your mind to.” But he does say, “With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.” And he does say “His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness.””

— Rev. Jerry Hamstra

“This evening we will consider this genealogy that we find in Genesis 46:8-27 and then the part of the story in which Jacob and his family end up in Goshen. Goshen was a part of the land of Egypt. The theological theme in both of these sections has to do with how God was making the offspring of Abraham into a great nation.”

— Rev. Jerry Hamstra

The Reformation was a great work of God that began on October 31, 1517.

That was the date when Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the church

door at Wittenberg. Of course, as with any historical movement it did not

exactly begin on one day.
