We don’t give the people we consider villains a second thought. They were born rotten, destined for evil from day one. But if we take another look at some of the most infamous villains of all time, we may find they’re more human than we thought. We may see ourselves in their reflection.
We might find we’re walking the path of villainy – and once we see that, we can turn toward God’s life!

While Israel wandered in the wilderness between the slavery of Egypt and the freedom of the Promised Land, God provided manna for them to eat every day. But after they arrived in the Promised Land, the manna stopped. Did this mean God abandoned them? No. It meant that they now had to start feeding themselves, using the bounty of the Land God had given them. This is a model for our Christian faith: when we first start out, as spiritual infants, God\\\'s presence is easy to sense, and everything seems easy. But God won\\\'t let us remain infants; we must grow up, learn to feed our own souls.
This Summer, we take a road trip through the Old Testament. Along the way, we stop in with some of the more famous encounters and observe how their brief encounters changed their lives.
